Pi**ing Against The Wind Is An Art Form
Customer #1: “Two for American Gangster. We have two free passes.”
Me: “I’m sorry, sir, but that movie just opened today and it isn’t currently accepting passes. To use these I’ll have to charge you $1.50 upgrade per ticket.”
Customer #1: “That’s ridiculous. It doesn’t say that anywhere on it.”
Me: *pointing to where it says that* “I’m sorry, sir, but it does. I’ll have to charge you the $3.”
Customer #2: “But we came early so we knew you wouldn’t sell out! Why can’t you just give it to us?”
Me: “I’m sorry but its a corporate policy. I cannot give anyone a free pass to this movie, not even employees. It’s not even an option on the computer.”
Customer #1: *mumbles under his breath while he reaches for his wallet*
Customer #2: “We shouldn’t have to pay $3 to see the movie! If there’s more than 25 people in there I’m going to report you to a manager!”
