I worked in a movie theater all through high school.

Except for the cleaning, it was a great gig.

I only made minimum wage though($2.85hr).

But, free movies, downtime between shows and meeting a lot of girls made it pretty sweet.

I just wish the internet was around back then so I could bootleg movies.

That would've been a piece of cake the last 2 years I was there 'cause I was the assist mgr(with all the keys) and knew how to thread-up and run the projectors.(I used to have private screening parties for my friends after hours)

I got the job with the help of my marketing teacher at school.

Fast food work sucked back then and is even worse now.

good luck

I worked in the movie theatre when I was young too. Free movies. Low wages but you are not spending because you are working when you would normally spend. You get to meet lots of people. :)

What is a "L" and why is it needed to deliver paper.

[worldpease]

Im guessing L, stands for Drivers License, lol...
and you need a car to deliver the Paper.

L = Learning and you have that for about a year or something but you got to drive with a person with a full License..and after that you do some tests and you get P's which you can drive by yourself for like 2 years or something then you get Green P's and then your full License..... sad.. :no:

[tesco]

paying for gas costs quite a bit.

I'm in high school right now, and I work at a movie theatre, and its great! :D

Minimum wage is $2.85 for you? :blink: I make 10 cents more than minimum wage here ($6.75).

But yeah, free movies (me and 3 friends anytime)! My brother keeps the ticket stubs, and its $10 a movie, I've saved over $500 on movies alone! :D Then there is the downtime, girls, celebrities that come. Everything is cool, box office, concession, and hell, even cleaning is great! People forget money, cell phones, video games/music CD's they buy from Tower Records, and just leave it in the theatres. :shifty:

Umm, yes minimum wage in the united states was $2.85 in the US.

It was 1981.

Although technically min wage was $3.35, there was a provision in the law that stated kids my age can be paid min wage minus .50¢ per hour. That is if you didn't work more then 40 hours a week.

Supposed to save businesses money or something.

Still a good gig. Paid for gas, beer, smokes, pretty much anything I wanted.

Plus, I used to sell the candy from school at the inflated prices of a movie theater. Since I counted the money at night, I just took my share of the differences in prices. For every box of M&Ms (both kinds) I made .50¢.

good times, good times.
