    I swear whenever a movie theater janitor hears the phrase "Chicken Jockey!" from now on they're gonna get PTSD flashbacks 💀

    How many? I've been struggling for years to the point I have lived with the far inferior 🤷

    ¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯

    This many.

    You have to use the backlash to escape the backlash, but also to escape some of the other characters too I guess

    As someone who worked in a movie theater for four years, popcorn/candy is really not that big of a deal. Even in the biggest disasters (usually kids movies) you just break out the push broom and just walk down each row while someone else sweeps up at the aisles.

    It’s the wet foods that are actually annoying. Nacho cheese is the worst, because it smears all over the place. Then there’s the bodily fluids…

    Also, the people who clean between shows are called ushers. Janitors come early in the morning to vacuum, mop the floors and clean the bathrooms.

    I immediately assumed anyone who said it was no big deal that they were doing it have never worked a service job in their life.

    I mean having basic human empathy would also work, but if you don't have that then service jobs show you first hand being on the bottom rung of society, having every Karen scream at you over arbitrary bullshit or having grown ass men throw hamburgers at you because someone else put too many pickles on it.

  • I say shit can the senior project at highschools.*. Instead make seniors get a job at a fast food joint near the school for the first half of the school year. Maybe make it half a day. Then the second half of the school year make them attend a new home ec. class that uses their paystubs from the job to show them how to make a budget, pay taxes, in addition to how to cook some simplistic meals and change a tire and your car's oil. I feel like that would cut down on the level of unearned entitlement some people have.

    *In the area I graduated in, senior students would have to do a set amount of volunteer hours as well as present a paper on the experience and what they would do to make the world a better place.

    1 time? No big deal. 2 times? Sure, that's my job. The whole month, every single show? Even the tough guy with the strongest will would think about quitting. But sure, the boss is making big buck.

    I'm gonna need some context I'm afraid.

    Theaters should’ve locked the doors and only let them out only after they cleaned up their own mess.

    And the next movie after cleaning is going to be the Rocky Horror Picture Show
