kjpepper6b) If you want a large soda, order a large soda. Don't wait for the concessionist to upsell you and then act like you're doing him/her some huge favor because "you always let the nice snackbar kids do their spiel." Just order the large from jump.
9) The salt shaker lives on it's own little counter off to the side, along with the nacho/hot dog condiments. It likes it there. Please do not leave the line while a concessionist is ringing you up to bring the salt shaker back so that you may hold up the line and make more of a mess on their counter, just cause you want extra extra salt on your popcorn. Take your popcorn to the salt.
9a) No, we don't have salt shakers behind the counter. Don't go get the salt shaker off of its island and demand that the concessionist layer your salt for you, especially when there are several harried moms with ten kid parties standing behind you.
10) Jalepenos are for putting on your nachos. They are NOT for making your enemies (friends?) slip while executing a fairly difficult level of DDR. Those foot pads are metal, you could cause some serious injury that way.
10a) Please also refrain from throwing jalepenos. They smell.
11) Concessionists can't change that 20 into quarters for you. There is a SIGN in the video game room over the change machine that clearly states in large friendly letters to go to the box office for change. Even if the drawer's already open.
12) We understand people's strange need to only have the freshest food possible, but do NOT come up to a concessionist's register during a massive rush and ask them to get you popcorn out of the popper at the opposite end of the counter just because you can actually see it popping and yet somehow are blind to the fact that there are already three concessionists pulling from that popper and sending another concessionist over is going to disrupt everybody. Popcorn turnaround during a rush is less than half an hour, but if you want visual confirmation of that fact, join the line in front of the popping popper, not the one next to it.
12a) This must be reiterated. Do NOT ask your concessionist to layer your butter after she's already gone out of your way to fill your bag from the popper in question and has come back with your freshy freshy fresh popcorn.
13) Don't bitch loudly about the customer behind you to the concessionists. The have to serve them as well.
14) Let the customer in front of you clear off and more importantly, let the concessionist finish the previous sale before you start yelling your order at them. Wait until their drawer is closed and they are looking at you.
15) If it says on the coupon that you only get a dollar off a large soda if you also buy nachos or a hot dog, YOU HAVE TO BUY NACHOS OR A HOT DOG to get the dollar off. We are not going to give you a dollar off your soda because you're waving a piece of paper.
16) No, we can't give you an extra popcorn bag/cup. Even if you give your concessionist $ARBITRARY_AMOUNT for it. Those items are inventoried every week and their disappearance has to be backed up with a sale.
16a) If you order a large soda cup with water, you will be charged for a large soda. YES, EVEN IF THERE'S ONLY WATER IN THE CUP.
16b) The concessionists will not fill your Super Big Gulp container with Cherry Coke. If you would like this particular service, obtain a job with us.
16c) Kindly refrain from sneering at the size of the courtesy cups. Yes, they're miniscule. You get what you pay for.
I'm sure there's more to follow...
