When our managers informed the head of the theatre about the issue they simply stated that my good friend and I would have to turn the air conditioning system off once my good friend and I leave
I recently just started a current part time job toiling at a local theatre downtown. It is a historic theatre that has been around for at least 50 years. The building has been broken down and sectioned into smaller buildings and even has elevators with the seasoned handheld cranks. While they have upgraded some of the components of the only thing they haven’t upgraded the a/c system. This wouldn’t be such a giant deal except the system for the ticket box office has started to leak and create water pockets in the ceiling. The water pockets have also started leaking right over one of the box office windows which is causing a bit of an issue as when people pay or acquire tickets their items are now becoming wet. When our managers informed the head of the theatre about the issue they simply stated that my good friend and I would have to turn the air conditioning system off once my good friend and I leave. When I asked my manager isn’t there more my good friend and I could do to try and repair the issue, she simply stated that because my good friend and I are a nonprofit business my good friend and I just don’t have the budget to try and repair the a/c system itself as there are more important upgrades that need to occur. I’m still keeping my fingers crossed though that at some point a donor will come in and see the water pockets above the box office and offer to donate the money to pay for a solution.
