--- Quote ---Wow, a movie theater giving away free popcorn and soda!  Probably the two least expensive and most profitable things they sell.
 I was a shift manager at a Burger King in high school, and I tried to use the cost of soda syrup to calculate our cost, and I discovered that we paid more for the cup, lid, and straw, than we did for the water, syrup and CO2 gas that made up the contents.  
 Cost for a large soda was maybe $0.10 at the most.
And that's all we got free, we had to pay full price for everything else.  Cheapskate owners.

You had good reason to be scared, Brooke.
 I had many scary nights working late at Burger K.  
We got robbed at gunpoint (once by a recently terminated manager- NOT ME) a few times, luckily never on my shift.  
 If I ever have to put myself in that type of a situation again, I'm going to be armed- company rules be damned.  
 Back then most robbers just stole the money and ran, nowdays they shoot the employees after they get the money.

Our owner made use the small dixi cups and we had to get permission to have a drink. Arrrrgh.

I was held up when I was a manager at a convience store and some punk put a revolver to my head for the $30 in the drawer.   The owner of the store was real nice, he told me I could have a free soda from the racks.   :P

Brookenstein:
We had 4oz dixie cups to use with the soda and pop corn or coud bring our own container.  

Customers who wanted a water had to pay for the price of a soda just to get the cup, lol.

Another theater was robbed at gunpoint and the staff was tied up until customers found them.  I asked to have another staff member close with me and I was told they could find someone else altogether if I couldn't handle my responsibiliies (of closing alone).
