LYC: So I worked box office at my theater for the first time yesterday -- (edited) - con_carne May 21, 12:15 25
- Yeah when I did it, the Box office was a little round kiosk 40 feet from the theater - amoxy May 21, 12:50
- Just checked out your website, so you guys don't let people in after the movie starts? How do you handle people getting concession or bathroom breaks - sycor May 21, 12:43 3
  - We lock the doors!... Just kidding. Yes. We make exceptions all the time for lightly attended screenings and stuff like that, but it is the rule. - con_carne May 21, 12:50
  - They are shot as they leave the theater -- nm - decline May 21, 12:45 1
    - well that escalated quickly. lol -- nm - sycor May 21, 12:46
- I don't think I ever did. Just projectors and concessions -- nm - professor smartbrain May 21, 12:23 6
  - Arclight (at least Beach Cities) has all new crew start at concessions and then go get trained on *everything* at least once - con_carne May 21, 12:26 5
    - Are you guys still film? Just curious why anyone would need to learn projection other than managers. - sycor May 21, 12:29 4
      - No, the vast majority of films are digital. But there's always at least one crew member at any given time whose job is projection. - con_carne May 21, 12:34 3
        
        Pro tip: when a movie is scheduled to start at a certain time, start it at that time - professor smartbrain May 21, 12:44
        
        Interesting. We only use managers and honestly our system runs itself. We have weekly tasks but we can go an entire day without going upstairs - sycor May 21, 12:37 1
        
        Yeah with us, the booth guy always has a checklist that they go around looking at stuff and checking stuff off the list... - con_carne May 21, 12:43
- At my grandparents drive-in, it was kinda cool. The booth was big enough that a friend could sit in it with you. -- nm - Spawn May 21, 12:20 4
  - In my theater the booth is one big giant room that runs the length of the building. You just walk from projector to projector. Well, before it digital - sycor May 21, 12:22 3
    - Sorry, you probably meant ticket booth. I hear booth and think projection. -- nm - sycor May 21, 12:23 1
      - Sorry, my bad. Projection was a large room as both projectors, etc were in there. -- nm - Spawn May 21, 12:24
    - At the drive in, it was the long walk form the main building. -- nm - Spawn May 21, 12:23
- Box office can be super boring. Are you allowed to read? I dislike ticket taking the most. -- nm - sycor May 21, 12:19 3
  - Aw hell naw. But we're mobile (transactions are on a tablet, wireless printer on my belt, and a cash pouch). - con_carne May 21, 12:25 2
    - Oh wow. We might be starting something like that after our renovation. But for now the ticket seller is still up front in the box office. -- nm - sycor May 21, 12:26 1
      - People always see the tablet and say "wow this is fancy!" Also, it has a built in bar code reader for online ticket taking and stuff. -- nm - con_carne May 21, 12:38
- this is a great recap - sounds fun to me -- nm - Epiphany May 21, 12:17 3
  - I do like that my biggest lesson here is that I need to see more free movies at my job. -- nm - con_carne May 21, 12:19 2
    - I agree with you - I liked recommending movies and talking movies to people when I worked at Block Buster - Epiphany May 21, 12:40 1
      - 'honey, why does every movie you bring home lately have sexy nazis in them?" -- nm - zeitgeist May 21, 12:44

- It takes me to a theatre I've worked at a few times. No surprise there. -- nm - Diva May 21, 12:08
- Here is the street view of what i get... -- (link) - San Andreas May 21, 12:07
- All those conjugal visits you made finally snuck up with you. -- nm - Qale May 21, 12:05
Google Maps is saying that the Kamloops CBC office is a "Place of Worship" -- (link) - Beryllium May 21, 11:50 1

Oreo Smores - 0, groiny 1. - groiny May 21, 11:44 4
- Are they not called S'mOreos? -- nm - JaxSean May 21, 11:53 2
  - Smores Oreo on the package. -- nm - groiny May 21, 11:54 1
    - they probably don't want to mess with the brand. (s'mOreos makes me miss mus., aww.) -- nm - b. May 21, 11:55
- Poor bastards never stood a chance. -- nm - Der Frühlingshafterbaron May 21, 11:47
Hahahahaha, I finished a Words on Tour level by playing the word TARNATION. -- nm - Der Frühlingshafterbaron May 21, 11:40 5

12 Things You Can Only Do In Chicago -- (link) - con_carne May 21, 11:23
1 thing i liked about Samoa Joe's "surprise appearance" was . . . - call me Ishmael May 21, 11:13 3
- If he's motivated, he's a monster. - Will Hunting May 21, 12:00 1
  - Poor Tyler Breeze. -- nm - Qale May 21, 12:06
- I liked how insignificant it made Sami Zayn. -- nm - Kevin Owens May 21, 11:23
Whoa. Leaked footage of David visiting Xur tomorrow. -- (link) - Shaun May 21, 11:09 [youtube] 23
- Everybody and their mother has gally at this point. -- nm - David May 21, 11:22 21
  - *cries* why does the game hate me. i bet even spawn has one now. i mean, spawn!?!? - Truman May 21, 11:51 3
    - RNG listens to audio and everytime someone sighs, the chance of getting a Gjallarhorn goes down. -- nm - Shaun May 21, 11:53 2
      - i dont sigh during destiny. that was a halo thing. - Truman May 21, 11:54 1
        
        I think you don't even realize when you do! -- nm - groiny May 21, 11:55
  - What we don't have is Vex Mythoclast and Fatebringer. -- nm - groiny May 21, 11:24 16
    - Fun fact: In the PoE, when the modifier is 'do more damage with special weapons', the Vex counts. -- nm - Shaun May 21, 11:39
    - I mean, I *had* Fatebringer. -- nm - David May 21, 11:30 14
      - You...dismantled...arguably the best legendary primary in the game? -- nm - Shaun May 21, 11:33 6
        
        Without hesitation. -- nm - David May 21, 11:35 5
        
        *shakes head* If you only knew. For real though, if you hate hand cannons, it has no place in your inventory. -- nm - Shaun May 21, 11:36 4
        
        *ding* - Spawn May 21, 11:37 3
        
        I guess hand cannons aren't for everyone. - Shaun May 21, 11:38 2
        
        I prefer 27 head shots with my MIDA, thank you. -- nm - Spawn May 21, 11:41 1
        
        4 headshots to kill, vs 2. nm -- nm - groiny May 21, 11:41
      - you should be put in timeout for that. nm -- nm - groiny May 21, 11:31 6
        
        It's a hand cannon. Enough said. -- nm - David May 21, 11:32 5
        
        I use a hand cannon in Crucible almost exclusively. nm -- nm - groiny May 21, 11:40 3
        
        I had my first triple proc kill with Hawkmoon on the weekend. Headshot = 215 damage = one-shot kill. Glorious. -- nm - Shaun May 21, 11:44
        
        You and everyone else. It's boring. -- nm - David May 21, 11:44 1
        
        not really. It is Red Death, Thorn, MIDA, Last Word, and Shotguns. nm -- nm - groiny May 21, 11:45
        
        Yup. I saved the armor and broke down... some exotic hand cannon I had been totting and will never use. -- nm - Spawn May 21, 11:33
- amusing -- nm - groiny May 21, 11:16
Gotta love how myVegas goes down for updates with absolutely no warning :/ - Meg May 21, 11:06
Man, I wouldn't say that I watched Letterman that often, but watching the "Everlong" highlight reel, I've sure seen a ton of those moments. - volnelk May 21, 10:58 8
- I'll always respect him for what he used to do, but he was just uninterested/uninteresting for the last 10-15 years. - TWuG May 21, 11:13 7
  - I don't think he has been uninterested. he actually was as engaged as I have ever seen him quite a bit in recent years, - b. May 21, 11:45 1
    - - one necessarily -- nm - b. May 21, 11:46
  - Like most humans, he got comfortable doing what he liked and that still worked. - GregW May 21, 11:33 4
    - I hope Colbert has some impact but I suspect he will be just end up a member of the chorus at this point. -- nm - Spawn May 21, 11:35 3
      - I think Colbert will be just as fun to watch as when he was playing "Colbert". He's wicked smart - TWuG May 21, 11:39 2
        
        Lets see how all that translates to the lack of Report. -- nm - Spawn May 21, 11:44 1
        
        just rebooting every old Carson shtick like Karnak, late night spokesman etc Colbert would make hilarious - zeitgeist May 21, 12:48
Well Frank, I'd say this Chad's gonna hang...for murder one - Horatio Cane with a pizza crust May 21, 10:52 5
- You dumbass. He puts *on* the sunglasses after the one-liner. -- nm - Shaun May 21, 10:58 3
  - He goes both ways. -- nm - Beryllium May 21, 11:05 2
    - He's bispecsual. -- nm - Der Frühlingshafterbaron May 21, 11:08 1
      - *snort* -- nm - zeitgeist May 21, 11:17
- YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH -- nm - Tim May 21, 10:52
Couple of good looking local recipes from Joy Bauer on the Kathy Lee and Hoda show -- (link) - Meg May 21, 10:48 2

- I just watched that. The sorbet looked yummy. -- nm - jnine May 21, 10:49
Omg this is so cool. nom nom nom -- (link) - Loyola May 21, 10:48 [youtube] 1
- Amazing. -- nm - volnelk May 21, 11:01
and how did they have his DNA to compare to begin with?? -- nm - amanda May 21, 10:47 6
- He's ever handled a penny. -- nm - Reagen May 21, 10:57 1
  - [deleted]
- He's obviously not a first time criminal. He's in the system. -- nm - jnine May 21, 10:48 3
  - maybe a plea? - amanda May 21, 10:54 2
    - i think the scotus case from last year that said no reasonable expectation of privacy for routine DNA collection was from Md -- nm - professor smartbrain May 21, 11:13
    - Maybe there's something in another jurisdiction that put him in the federal system. I can't believe he'd do all of that for $40k. -- nm - jnine May 21, 10:58
David, and minutes after the show ended, a Samoa Joe shirt went up for sale, too. -- nm - Tim May 21, 10:43 3
- Oh I did find a link. He also gave a promo afterwards that didn't air. -- (link) - Tim May 21, 10:46 2
  - Taz is back? -- nm - David May 21, 10:54 1
    - Oh, it's a joke how WWE guys would appear on Impact and Taz and Tenay would go "what is he doing in the Impact Zone?" -- nm - Tim May 21, 10:56
Re B3: I didn't mean mini melts, I meant like ice cream (or froyo) with M&Ms and brownies and fruit and junk. - Beryllium May 21, 10:43 1
- In a way, it's quite a brilliant first :) -- nm - Loyola May 21, 10:44
