No. Don't mind me. I was confused because I'm high and was reading your post backwords. Damn.
nahhh FUKK THAT i'm goin in!! :damn:
the shyt we had to do was exponentially more expensive to them if we fukked up. all the films were rented and shipped in these metal crates that held reels people are generally familiar with 📽️.

we had to splice them shyts together with previews, remove any irregularities, screen the movies, and break them back down when their run was over. handling expensive ass lightbulbs, ensuring presentation itself was quality (no fuzziness, blurs, screenjumping). PLUS you had to know the schedule and make sure you're starting the right movie, at the right time. a lot of the theaters would show multiple movies throughout the day. a movie might be showing on one side of the theaters in the morning and you gotta wheel a 4ft band of film from one side to the other....

:martin: EIGHTEEN damn theaters and here i am younger than that running fullspeed across the building to set up/start movies. this one cac was fired for accidentally threading a horror movie to for what was supposed to be some Rated G kids movie. it was life or death up there, them mouthbreathers downstairs weren't doin shyt but making popcorn and sweepin it up :hhh: and they were paying me the EXACT same rate??? nah fam

$7.25 at KMart back in 2003, my senior year of high school, when minimum wage was probably around $5.
