What I wish was different
I did not get nearly as many hours over the summer as I did previously. Also, because I am certified to serve alcohol to customers, I was almost always scheduled at the concessions stand and I did not get to usher (clean theaters) that much, which is my favorite job. The managers at Regal also do not really put an emphasis on training people. It is more like they tell you briefly how to do something and then you are on your own, which can be stressful. They are always able to help though. Even though I liked most of my managers, I do not think the management at the theatre is great. Also some of the equipment we used did not work the way they were supposed to, and you would have to mess around with them to get them to work. I accidentally spilled hot coffee on my hands because I had to awkwardly pour it manually instead of using the dispense function because it was broken. I also burnt my hands a lot with the nacho cheese dispenser because the button would not work and I would have to press down on the cheese bags.
