I work at a movie theater in downtown Boston.
At about 2:30 today I was at work, seeing people out of a theater after 42 just finished playing. A woman asked me if she could stay for the next showing because she liked it so much. At first I said she shouldn’t, but since it wasn’t busy, I told her she could stay and it would be our secret.
About 3pm rolled around and that’s when we started handling the craziness of what happened at the marathon which lasted all day.
At about 6pm I ran into the same woman coming out of 42 and she thanked me. She explained that if I told her she couldn’t stay, she was going to walk to Copley Square a couple blocks over and watch the end of the marathon.
Best thing I ever did at work while not doing my job.
