Treating Workers Like Garbage
(I am working the concessions stand when a young woman and her small daughter approach my register.)
Me: “Hi! Welcome to [theater]. How can I help you today?”
Customer: “I’ll take a medium popcorn and drink, please.”
(The customer pays and I hand her the popcorn and drink.)
Customer: “Hey, do you have a trash can back there?”
Me: “Absolutely!”
(I hold out my hand for the trash, expecting it to be something innocuous.)
Daughter: *spits her gum out in my hand, drool and all*
