Customers... pretty much the word is enough said. I guess the ones that make the me the most upset are the ones that just expect free things. Or they think of any possible way to get something for free.
I had a customer last night say that he gave our cashier a 2o dollar bill but she said that he gave her a 5. So I got called over there to check it out. I counted down the drawer and she was even, which meant that it was a 5 dollar bill. He then proceeded to yell at me and say that he was not going to leave until I gave him his money. So I then went upstairs and checked the cameras. It was a 5 dollar bill. The customer wanted to see the footage! That is not allowed. I was like really, why would I lie?? Not like I am going to take your few dollars. Get over it. So I ended up giving him 2 free movie passes.
Okay, so it is not like it is my personal movie passes or anything. But I just find it really annoying to give customers free things when they dont deserve it! I totally don't mind giving them something if there is a legitimat concern. But besides that I have to suck it up and give it to them. The most common one is, "people were talking during the movie". I ask, did you tell anyone? "no." Well WTF?? It is not like we are in there watching the movie with you. We cannot control how other people act, nor can we do anything about the problem if we are not told. Also, people say that they didnt like the movie so they want a pass for it. People, sorry to tell you, but the theatre does not make the movie. We just show it. If you dont like the movie, then call the studio. Dumb!
Tonight I worked wing. Which was pretty much crowd control. We sold out of every showing of Transformers. I dealt with so many customers my head hurts! Some people just are ridiculous. They believe that the rules appy to everyone but them. They think that they should all get the best seats in the house, even if they come right as the movie is starting. i even had one guy say that I should make someone move so that he could sit up in the top section cause he doesnt like the front row hahahaha. Seriously? It is opening weekend of the biggest movie of the summer. If you dont like crowds, then dont come. And if you are really that dumb to not realize how busy it is and that you should get there early, then you deserve to sit in the front row and get a neck cramp.
Just saying.
But, the customer is always right. No matter how ridiculous they may be...

My Very First Blog :)
So after much debate on whether or not I should make my own blog, here I am! I am hoping to use this blog to document different things that are happening in my life. That way I can look back on this later and see just how far I have come! And of course, for any friends that decide to read this, they can be updated on my life as well!
Oh where to begin... my life at this moment. I am just finishing up summer school at ASU. It is amazing to be back. I have had a lot of things happen in my life that has caused me to miss out on this past year of school at ASU. But hey, life happens. You make the most out of every situation. It was really hard to not graduate with my friends this past spring, but I am okay. I will graduate eventually and I will be extremely proud of myself when I do! Anyways, I am most likely going to be getting an A in both of my classes! It has been a really hard month! School Mon-Fri all day, and working full time! After this I will actually get to have about a month of summer! I will be laying out, relaxing, spending time with friends, oh...and working. haha.
I feel extremely lame recently. Honestly, all I do is work and go to school! Nothing too exciting. I have been in a rut recently. Some very unfortunate things have happened in my life over the past couple of years. But instead of wallowing in self pity over them, I am moving foward. My life was in much need of a change, and i am making it now! I am focusing on self improvement. In all aspects. I have been watching what I eat and joined a gym. I really want to get in shape, not only for how I look and feel, but it will help my dancing tremeandously as well. I am also focusing on my school work. I need to get good grades and have been taking a lot of classes so that I can graduate in less than 2 years. Also, I am in no position a the moment to have a relationship. My last serious relationship hurt me more than I could have ever imagined. It blindsighted me. And i am still recovering from that. It will take me a long time to trust someone again. But I am not going to go looking for someone. When it happens, it will happen. I need to be happy and content with myself and my life before I share it with someone else as well.
So that is pretty much a very brief sum up of what has happened recently!
My little brother, Michael, was in town for two weeks. He just left. I miss him a lot :( He had to move to Chicago after my mom passed away. I don't get to see him very much. I wish that I could. But it is best for him to live out there. It is a better living environment, much more stable. But it still hurts that i don't get to see him as often as I would like.
Well it is getting very late and I need to be up very early tomorrow for school. And then work tomorrow. I will definitely be posting on here! Hopefully have more interesting stories to write about!
xoxo
