Century Theatres
Century Theatres was my first job and I started out with a broom and dustpan cleaning movie theatres. I can still remember the smell of sticky soda, buttered popcorn, and candy somehow following me wherever I went. Someone higher up must have noticed me, because I moved into box office handling cash and exchanging them for movie tickets to patrons. I was safe from the smell of half-eaten popcorn in that enclosed box office. I was able to stay in the box office until my last day of employment because I was always even in my cash register. My last day was harmoniously on my birthday, although I don't remember why... but it must have been for a good reason.
