before you read my terrible experience i just wanna say that i am a huge elle woods fan, if i was old enough i would have auditioned and the following has abosolutly nothing against the cast, crew, or cool stage door guy who is awesome. i love them all to death...now on with the show...
has anyone else had a terrible time at rush lately?
ive rushed at lb about...5 times and only got in twice.
im a junior in hs and never had a problem with my id
this past friday my friend and i went over and had an absolutely terrible time
i simply cannot believe how abnoxious the ladies were.
first we got there at nine, and there were about 20 ppl before us... when they opened the door at ten , the man announced that you must have a valid COLLEGE id...since when??? i felt bad for these girls that were like third on line that were prob there very early who had to get off the line because they were in high school. if you are going to change your policy make a note someplace we can see it outside the theater so we dont waste two hours of our life.
my school holds some classes at the local college so my friend actually had a college id which made us eligible for the tickets. however when they got to us they said well too bad we only have one ticket left...
i KNOW that there have been times where they have made an exception and pulled another ticket out of no where. it happened to my other friend a few weeks prior.
they refused and told us to bad.
and gave us a completely horid attitude
im sorry, i respect my elders and all, but when spoken to like she spoke to me, i raised my voice and gave her just as much attitude as she gave me
ok....fine. i gave up. it was a lost war.
but then they could not get rid of the single ticket and a girl in back of us was alone and had a college id
when the girl handed in her id the woman said " well how do i know this is a college, i know plenty of elementary schools in the area with the initals FDU"
WTF HELLO PEOPLE
THE GIRL IS 5'8' AND HAS BOOBS AND LOOKS MUCH MORE MATURE THAN A 6TH GRADER
we felt terrible for the girl she was crying and everyone knew she was right but the ladies ignored her and just kept asking for next in line.
no one would go forward
they were wrong.
later on after i basically got chased out of the box office (hehehe im really not that bad usually but they were big bitches i couldnt help myself)
my friend decided that she would go in and ask if they could give us the one ticket and the seat behind it for full price and we would split the cost between us.
the girl with the college id was still there and they still refused to giver her the ticket.
following her on line was a group of 3...
when they went up to the window and asked for a ticket the lady said we only have one left
the group said no and left
my friend was next
when she went up to the window the first thing the lady said was
"oh great, wheres your friend:
,,,um personal opinion here, but you should never refer to a customer that way, each time someone walks to your ticket window you should treat them as a new customer as if you have never seen them before, especially if they didnt say anything to you to begin with.
she then told my friend that the one ticket was gone..
...
...
...
who took it?
no one.
she just wanted to stick it to us.
the group of mothers behind us on line were so shocked by these women, they got off line.
another lady went up to the ticket window to retreve her tickets for the nights perforamnce.
aparently the ppl on the phone told her her seats were different than what the lady at the box office was telling her, and instead of trying to help this woman, the lady in the window put her hand against the glass and said well i cant do anything for you. and turnd and walked aaway from the window.
um excuse me ?
ive been going to the theater since i could walk and never have i experienced such terrible workers.
wow i just realised how much i wrote sorry. ill wrap it up soon.
for a show that you should be encouraging the hs crowd. why are you pushing them away?
i was in a cab once and called the palace theater for their specific address and my call got disconnected when i called back and asked for the address again, the lady said : I already gave it to you, and hung up.
umm..how in the world do you know i wasnt some completely new customer? thats pretty rude.
idk maybe its my own personal feelings, but i felt that was not the elle woods way as someone said earlier.
my family says i should write a letter,
after seeing some other people have had a similar problem with these ppl im starting to think their right
any one else agree?
or should i just let it go because stuff doesnt always work out like you planned.
