Now Playing...

What's new with me? Well, for starters, I've gotten a job in the movie business!

Don't get too excited.  I'm not a cameraman, gaffer, editor or even a grip.  I'm a movie theater attendant.

What does that entail, you may ask?  Well, have you ever wondered who sets up the projector, makes your popcorn, and cleans up said popcorn when the 3-year old in the seat ahead of you decides to throw a hissy fit?  Well, that's us.  More specifically, 3 of us.

Now, before you call me out saying "You can't run a movie theater with just three people," let me tell you that this particular theater can even be run by just two people, and it typically is just two of us.

No, this is not a magical theater (although that would be epically awesome), nor do we have a small army of robots to perform the menial labor (which would be an even more epic magnitude of awesome).  We do, however, have only two screens.  That means just two movies at a time, and on a weekday, that's easily manageable.

Now, I am on the fence about whether to specifically name the theater.  On the one hand, business isn't so good, and the place could use some free publicity.  On the other, this is a nation of lawyers, and saying the wrong thing, no matter how justified, could land me in trouble.  I really don't want legal trouble.

For now, I'll keep a tight lip on the name, and tell stories as they happen.  That's all for now!
