Enjoy The Film

Working on box office presents the staff with the initial needs of the customer.  Some may think of them as having special needs.  The way of the customer:

• Turn up at the cinema and ask me what you think you should see. Hey buddy I don’t know you from Adam but now you are my bezzy and I think you should definitely see Donkey Punch. 
• Okay, so you walk away without a word and I figure you may not like teenage horror flicks introducing the latest sex tips after all.
• Computer Says “No” – you turn up late for the film naively arguing its just the previews but you’re stupid cos we know the film has already started and genuine film fans don’t miss the beginning of films only sad freaks like you. Computer says you’re not going in late spoiling for the rest of us.
• We know okay?  The flat screens behind us have never worked properly since day one and the clock lost the plot completely with the arrival of British Summertime and the management no longer – so why be the millionth person to point it out?
• Ask me where the screens are.  We know the site was designed by a dork but, why not like around the corner of the box office and, oh look, there is a humongous arrow with the word screens next to it.
• You’re not as clever as you think you are, you’re a dweeb.  So you’re a spotty teenager dressing to look 18 and then presenting yourself to me trying to buy a child ticket (aged 14 years & under).  Get a life.
• Smile it may never happen.  There is something about being young that prevents certain people from even looking at us never mind smiling, especially young women with their cool boyfriends. It’s your life, baby.
