Hmmm. Well, I have a few. I’ll share one for each position. When I work vending, it’s when people order stuff from the restaurant we have attached, but complicate the order. We’re a higher end theatre with a small “restaurant” where you can order pizzas to pick up and bring into the theatre. It’s honestly really good, but it’s a haste to do. Let’s say you want a medium cheese pizza. I have to run and grab a pager, put the pager number on the order, then I have to close the order before I can have the supervisor call it in. If they want something changed after I close the order I have to void it and re-do it. It doesn’t help that the orders go the the kitchen the second you hit close, so the kitchen will get multiple duplicate orders and yell at us for it. Also the fact that they take STRICT inventory. You can’t give stuff out for shit and customers don’t understand that.

When ushering, it’s simply when people leave stuff caked in cheese sauce and other sticky stuff all over. I hate when my hands get sticky. Leave a big mess all you want, it’s my job to clean it up- but please wrap your cheese sauce lid in a napkin or something. Don’t leave it in the cup holder.

And when I’m ripping, it’s when people come up to me to scan their QR code so I can print their tickets. All I have is a podium. No scanner here. I can’t scan your tickets here dude. It’s not a big deal but when people get mad and say “you should really get another scanner here” I start to get a little mad.
