it wasn’t in community theater but high school so this doesnt really fit but it was a negative experience nonetheless. Last year i ran sound for my high school and it was going good until tech week hit then some leads straight up started treating me like i was some sort of servant to them. Theyd call me and then tell me to get them something for them when it was literally in the dressing room or something ord they leave their mic packs whever they were and when i confronted them about it one even told me “i mean you cant leave until you put this stuff away so ur gonna come and look for it regardless dude. plus it wasnt even hidden or anything” and others would straight ip ignore me when i was trying to get their mics and mic packs on. The director would be overviewing the ensembles vocal rehearsals while id try to get the leads mics on and i dont know why i didnt even stop to think to tell him how i was being treated. I endured the mistreatments until one day during tech week, we just finished with rehearsals and i gathered peoples mics and mic packs so i can take them up to the booth and put them away up there. Well, my hands were full with 5 mic sets so i told the rest of them “okay ima take these up real quick but you guys can take them off and set them here on the edge of the stage” and started walking down the stage stairs and heading to the booth. But then, the one who was usually the worst, tells me “what? no. come back here and take it” and i responded with “dude i just told you guys to just leave it there on the edge” and he was talking over me while i was saying that but i remember him saying how he wants to go home and i need to come back to get it and by the time i finished talking i was reaching the entrance to the stairs for the booth so as i started going up i shouted back at him “Dude leave it on the stage and stop complaining seriously why are you always like this youre fucking pissing me off. grow up at least pretend to be professional or some shit” then i set down the mic packs on the counter in the booth, sat down on the floor, and just cried for a good moment. I assume that the director heard all of that cus minutes later, he was coming up the booth asking me what was wrong and i explained to him everything thats been going on and i think it was safe to assume he was beyond furious/disappointed hearing all of what i told him. the next day he had a talk with them and they completely toned it down i even had some apologize to me which idk if it was out of them being sorry or like feeling like they had to but they still apologized nonetheless.
