the place where i work is NOT:

a movie theatre (so don't call and ask what time the movie shows)

called "puppetry of arts"

just for children

a slave shop that does not allow performers a day off

a for-profit business venture/ soulless corporate money-monger (we're a poor non-profit, not "the man" - stealing from us/sticking it to us is counterproductive!)

a nazi regime (some idiot actually comapred me to a nazi for requiring pre-payment)

located in the big arts complex on 15th and peachtree

excepted from fire code statutes

free

one of those places with a playboard and sock puppets



sheesh! (i'm having an "i hate people" day)

nazi! how dare you ask for payment so that your performers can get paid! you guys are so greedy with all your movie profits...just make the performers work for free, i'm sure there's plenty of room for them to sleep in that huge arts complex. and a place that's for kids shouldn't have to worry about fire codes. i'm going to stick it to your free-show ass with my sock puppetry of arts.

it's worse even. he didn't simply call me "nazi."

patron: well, they allow me to reserve with my card, but pay cash at (insert big regional theatre here)...

me: i am sorry, sir. that is our policy.

patron: but WHY is that your policy?

me: i am sorry sir. i don't get to make those rules, but i am expected to adhere to them.

patron: you know, that's what hitler's men said too.
