Nobody really cares about Julie
Aug. 7th, 2009 10:40 pmSo we got Julie and Julia at work today. If you've been paying attention, perhaps you are aware that this movie is getting big exposure and pretty damn good reviews. And you may also notice that today is the very first day for it, and I think we're the only local theater that has it. Why does this matter? Because this combination never happens at our theater.
See, what we usually get is movies that are usually artsy or depressing, the kind only people who are old, haughty, or both go to. And most often, we only get said movies a week or two after their premiere, when the bulk of viewers went to whatever other nearby theater had it.
In short, today was packed. In a four hundred seat theater, we rarely exceed one-fifty people on the weekends. We had three hundred and eighteen at the seven o'clock showing.
Ganager is freaking out per usual, and due to business being so huge, he asked me to cover an extra half-shift tomorrow. Why not, it's not like I got anything else to do. Yay money.
In other news, we figured out how to get Rocketman to connect to the internet upstairs: a really long cord. WOO SEMIMOBILITY
