how often do you run into moviehoppers? what is it like in the projection room? do you have any nightmare stories?

Moviehoppers - far too often. Daily almost. Projection rooms are dark and cold and there's a giant projector smack dab in the middle of the room so. Nightmare stories? Man had a heartattack and died in theater 13. Every time someone cleans that alone, they fall and don't know why they fell.

Pros of working at Cinemark

The people I work with, both management and fellow employees are a pleasure to work with. Free movies within reason (if you call off, you can't see a movie that day unless you have a good reason). Discounts while you work. Free movie posters when they die down. There's a lot good with the theater.

Cons of working at Cinemark

Honestly, the wages but I'm pretty sure they can't do much about that. After taxes, as an usher, you're looking at about 6.55 an hour.

Cinemark benefits

The free movies for sure. I save much on date nights!

What happens when you catch someone sneaking into a movie (without a ticket)?

So, if someone is trying to sneak into another movie after seeing one, and we catch them, we just ask them to leave and they usually do. (or manager gets involved, etc.) If they didn't buy a ticket, 99% of the time they won't make it up to the theaters, we usually catch people trying to sneak upstairs without a ticket.

Who had to clean up after the screenings of *50 Shades of Grey* and what was the worst thing they found?

Us. Luckily I didn't end up a floor leader during the time that was out. But, dildos, condom wrappers and holes in popcorn tubs as well as massage oils and the likes were found.

Who do you hate more at your job, the managers or customers?

There's only one manager that no one really cares for. I love all of the other managers and the customers are generally friendly.
