I work as an usher at a movie theater and my whole job is cleaning up after people and taking out their trash. I could rant for days about how disgusting the average person is and how I’m only paid $10 an hour to pick up after them. But I did some math the other night. I counted all the popcorn buckets in the trash at the end of the night and added their total cost together. It was around the $700 mark. That’s just for the large popcorns alone not counting the other sizes or drinks or hotdogs or candy or anything. I make around $400 per paycheck. Two weeks of my time and effort is literally worth less a single night’s worth of paper thin cardboard buckets that are sold just to be trash two hours later. It makes it all the more insulting when I find buckets of popcorn littering the floor that are still completely full after the movie. So next time you go to the theater, please eat your popcorn and clean up after yourself.
