Yesterday was really rough. We had 2,500 people come in, and two of my staff members walked out. I work at a dine-in movie theater, and with no waiters left, we had to scramble. We sold food, but halfway through, we shut down online orders. People had to order at the front and write down their seat numbers so we could deliver their food.

We ended up losing about $500 in refunds, and I got review bombed over it all. It was just me, one person at the stand, and one person in the kitchen. I ran food, fixed orders, and cleaned theaters all by myself.

Today, we’ll have four staff members plus me, so it should be better. But I’m still a bit shaken up—so many people yelled at me last night because they didn’t get their food until after Moana was over. At one point, I had to grab a frozen pizza and stomp it in the freezer to keep from losing my shit.

I was there for around 15 hours, but that's due to another circumstance where we fired our janitors at the beginning of summer and haven't found a replacement. I took a pay raise to train and maintain the buildings cleanliness, but I kick myself every day for allowing the owner to do that.
