18 Things Only Cineworld Employees Will Understand

"I have three opens this week, what is this sorcery?"

If you love movies, it just makes sense to work in a cinema. Most of the employees in Cineworld are at college or University, studying some film-making or screen writing course, so it just makes sense that you would surround yourself in an environment that will help you out in the long run. And yes, you are giving people popcorn (therefore providing happiness), but you're also making contacts along the way. You'll be working crazy shift patterns so your body clock won't always know what is going on, but you'll still have enough energy to fight your colleagues for an open shift that someone is wanting to swap for a close. And you hate closes. Well, you don't hate closes, but it usually depends on who you're working with and if you can get home on time. It doesn't matter if you're working at Cine for a few months or if you're in it for the long haul, you'll probably meet your best friends there. Behind every Cineworld, there is a great Cineworld team and that's not just because they give you extra toppings whenever you order ice cream...

18. The Heartbreak Of Losing Ben And Jerry's To Baskin Robbins

People don't normally like change, especially when it comes to ice cream. But is there anyone out there who doesn't like Ben and Jerry's? Even people who are lactose intolerant didn't raise their hand. But that fateful day happened and life as you know it was different. Everything turned pink with the arrival of Baskin Robbins. You had to say goodbye to your Phish Food and your Caramel Chew Chew and over time, something happened that you didn't expect... You realised that Baskin Robbins was just as good and they have so. many. flavours. There's the Flavour Of The Month that you NEED to try every time it comes in, otherwise how would you be able to sell it to customers? The scoops are bigger and you appreciate the little water fountain that BR provided for you to wash the scoops with. But even though you have BR in your life, you still remember the good old days where the walls were surrounded with cows...
