Pros

Great shows, poor pay. Most of the younger ushers treat you with respect and always lend a helping hand.

Cons

Some of the veteran ushers treat you as though you are fighting them for their job. On my first day, I was shadowing someone in the orchestra. When I introduced myself, she in turn said "who sent me this, " meaning me. Second day was also horrible. One usher asked me to get two programs for some older patrons . When I walked over to get the programs, another old angry female usher grabbed me by the arm and said "Where are you going?" Proceeding to call me a jerk when I told her to get her hands off of me. What a joke some of these people are. They act as if they live in the dark ages. No one should ever be treated like that anywhere as far as employment. I am warning any young hopeful to stay away from these sad people because it's not fair to work in such horrid conditions.
