Tomorrow I start a new job!!
Picture this: you go to the cinema, you watch a movie (with me so far?).
That movie?
Put on by ME. Yes, I am about to enter the most exciting sphere of cinema running; I will be henceforth known as Simon the Projectionist! Jumping from booth to booth, lacing up show after show, keeping YOU, the cinema going public, happy in the knowledge that the silver screen will live on. And above everything else, probably means MORE HOURS. As if I don't work enough friggin' hours...
Actually, I will be the most lowly projectionist in the cinema, so the place to find me may be in the local buttie shop getting in the lunch order.
Today was the last day as supervisor, so I tried to make it as hard for the people I don't like as possible. But then, there isn't really anyone I don't like so it was all rather pleasant. I went after work and saw the new Clint Eastwood film 'Letters from Iwo Jima'. Good stuff, and has put me in the mood for war movies. Full Metal Jacket is definitely on the cards. Although right now, I think that it is once again the time for sleep, as I am absolutely exhausted and have a 9am start tomorrow (new job. Have I mentioned that?)

but... but... but... what can I call you now? It took ages to come up with Popcorn Jockey, even longer to come up with Senior Popcorn Jockey, and I never got to use Grand Moff Popcorn Jockey. I'll have to think of something equally amusing.... How about Reel Monkey?
Congrats on the new job once again.
Hope the first day on the new job went well. I'm sure you projected the hell outta those reels! Well done again, make sure you have a couple of celebratory pints.
you forgot to call him a reel monkey (copyright 2007 p.i.g. enterprises).
And when pray tell will be the next time you're on msn?
How about, English Simon. Works for me
