Work last night = fun and interesting.
True, it was a slow night last night at work, but there were two of us in the box office, Staci and I. So, we had fun doing stupid things, but what made the night worth-wild was the stupidity of the customers.
Stupid 1 : This lady came out complaining to Jonathan (manager) about how one of our security guards were singling her out in the theatre and kept telling her to be quite (well, if you were TALKING THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE MOVIE, maybe the security guard wouldn't have told you to be quite) and was just standing next to her watching her the entire time. And then her cell phone went off (alarm reminding her to take her medicine) and the security guard told her to turn it off. Jonathan gave her and the people that she was with Re-admission Tickets (and by the looks of the people, they were loud in the theatre while the movie was going. I know this because when they bought the tickets from me they were HELLA loud). Then Tony (house manager) came out and asked Jonathan what he gave those people. And Jonathan told him and Tony got pissed. Because it was Tony that had to tell the people numerous times to be quite during the movie. And when her cell phone was going off, they pretended like it wasn't theirs, and when Tony pointed out that it was coming from her, she pretended like she couldn't find her phone.
Stupid 2: This lady comes out of no where and Staci and I could tell she was angry. She goes up to Staci's window and asks Staci how much children tickets cost (in that cranky, sarcastic voice). And Staci told her $5.50. Then the lady went off saying how she was furious because her two children bought tickets and they were charged $9.00 and how they coudln't enjoy their show because they didn't have enough money for popcorn or drinks and this and that. Then Staci tells the lady that she can give her the difference when the movie is over and she gets the tickets. So the lady walks away and Staci and I look at one another and Staci says that she hopes it's these two little girls. Because they came up earlier and asked for two tickets for Secondhand Lions and they did look young, so Staci asked them how old they were, and they said 12 and 13. And it turned out that it was those two girls. So when they came out, the mom came stomping up to Staci's window and Staci says, "See, ma'am, I did ask them how old they were and they said," then the lady interrupted Staci and yelled, "That blonde little girl right there is MY daughter, and she is 10!" So, Staci says, "Ma'am, I did ASK them how old they were because they looked young, and she said (Staci pointed at the other little girl) I'm 12 and my friend is 13. So I gave them Adult Tickets." Then the little girl yelled, "I DIDN'T SAY THAT!" So Staci goes and says, "I didn't say you said it, I said your friend said it and you didn't say that you weren't 13." So, the mom looks at the little girls and starts yelling, "I guess I have to hold your hands whenever you buy tickets now huh?!?" and bleh bleh bleh. It was funny. So Staci gave her $7.00 back (the difference between two children and two adult tickets) and the lady apologized. So Staci and I kept the rest of the money ($5.50 each).
Stupid 3: This guy bought a ticket from me for a 10:30 show, and 10 minutes later he got a refund on it. Then later on that night (actually like 20 minutes later) I saw him out in the lobby and told Security to go see if he has a ticket. And he did, and he came out to my window saying this and that. So I say, "But you got a refund from me earlier, where did you get that ticket from?" And he says, "Awww, man, see. That wasn't even me though. It was my brother, my twin. He's having a baby and he had to leave." Of course I didn't believe him because they were wearing the exact same things (which some twins might do, but not these two ebcause they were ghetto). And when we give refunds, the person has to sign the back of the ticket. So I got the ticket out that he signed earlier and asked him what his name was and he said Anth-no no, my brother's name is Anthony (the name he signed on the back of the ticket). So I said, "So, what's YOUR name?" And he thought about it and said, "Uh, Jeremy." So I said, "You had to think about what your name was? Do you have an ID saying that your name is Jeremy." So he pulls out his Drivers License and of course, it says Anthony Blehblehbleh. I look up at him and tell him that his name is Anthony, and he starts acting all shocked and said, "Oh, this is my brothers ID! He has mine!" That is some stupid shit right there, and the way he was acting was just, stupid.
Fun. 6 days until I'm 18!!!!
