Bored at Work Agenda

So, I'm back to work. The weather is mocking me outside. It's so nice. And hot too. I was starting to sweat on my mini-journey from my car to the theater.
Fun story today. One man lost his wallet and believed he left it in the theater after Sunday's show. It's amazing how people are always losing such important things. We always get calls from people looking for cell phones and wallets. Or extremely valuable shawls that have both sentimental value as well as price value. True story.
So I went to the lost and found to look for this man's wallet. It was not there. I went back to tell said man of his misfortune. Man did not believe me. I swore that I looked thoroughly, but he could leave his name and number in case it turned up. Man asked if he could look for it himself. I explained that our cleaning crew searches after every show and puts everything in the lost and found and could not allow randoms to walk through our theater for funsies (insurance liability or something). Man mentioned he was a friend of the executive director's and he was going to call him to see if he could look around. Apparently man thought I was lying to him. I told him to go ahead. Man called friend. friend was not there. He got to my manager, who told him the exact same thing, and he looked for the wallet in area of where man believed to be sitting. Man forced to accept that.

People, I'm sorry that you are freaking out about your lost goodies, but for God's sake we are not lying to you. I'm not exercising any authority over you because I HAVE NONE. If you did lose stuff here, maybe a bad samaritan picked it up. that's why you have got to be careful with your valuables.

SO  anyways, I decided I should do somethign worthwhile at work, and I found my first play from my playwrighting class and, after a year and some of putting it away and refusing to look at it, saved it on a file and am currently rewriting it. I hope it gets better. I've put it away for so long because I knew it sucked but I didn't know what to do to make it better. I guess I have a lot of time now to figure that out.

Some people just walked by wearing straw boater hats. Damn Tourists.

3 more hours of work to go.
Aaaaand I'm taking my lunch.
