Ah, it's over at last. I don't think I could take it anymore. Schools were out, college kids back home for a visit, crazy people shopping on Black Friday.
Let's start with Wednesday night. New movies came out then because of the Holiday. One of the movies was This Christmas. It is a great movie with drama, comedy, and good music. It has an all black cast with Chris Brown (a hottie to the young folks). This night was busy as ever, we were understaffed because we didn't expect to be that busy. This paticular movie brought in the worst of the worst for the last showing. These kids caused so many problems. I had 911 calling me to let me know that they were getting hang up calls from our pay phone. I looked up and there were the buttheads. I told them if it happened again, I would let the police come out and take them away. Same kids, got into a shoving match in our doorway causing people to walk around them. I had to tell them to stop about 7 times. There were about 5 girls picking on a little boy, they caused him to fall twice. I had to yell at them for picking on him. He was scarred and about 4 years younger than these evil "tweens." I ended the night with calling for a policeman to be in the lobby when the movies got out. There was just two of us employees and about 130 people. 80 of them the trouble makers.
Thursday on Thanksgiving wasn't bad. We were busy with people but most everyone was nice or too tired from eating so much to be mean.
Friday, oh black Friday! I was off work for the first time in a long time. So what did I do? You know, I was at the theater watching movies with friends and laughing at the staff for working so hard. Things went smooth and everyone seemed to like being so busy. My replacement for the night was not the quickest person on earth but at least I didn't have to help. It was nice to sit back and watch.
Saturday was great. Business was nice and steady. No stories to tell. Oh wait, I forgot, I had to make someone leave in which they so informatively told me I was fat. WOW, NEVER HEARD THAT ONE!!! (I am in case your wondering, but it doesn't bother me.)
