NOW HIRING

Every time I drive by a local movie theater called Edwards Big Fancy Five or something, I scan the list of movies.

And every time the same thing happens.

I read:

X-Men Origins:Wolverine
Angels and Demons
Management
The Soloist
Sunshine Cleaning

and

Now Hiring.

And every single time my eyes bug out in hopeful surprise--

NOW HIRING???

I haven't heard of it.  Wow.  A movie I haven't heard of.  This is either very good news, or...not.

NOW HIRING.  I cast about for any hidden piece of info I might have heard and failed to take note.  I wonder how long it's been out.  And I wonder again, how it is I haven't heard of it.  I start salivating--

This thought process takes one second.

And then, like every other time I drive by this abysmal theater, my heart drops.  I experience dashed hopes.  Then, yet once again, I admonish myself for being taken in.

But now I'm thinking--hey wait a minute.  I should go into that place and admonish them.  Who do they think they are using their public billboard to advertise a job?  Like all the time.

And why, for that matter do they always need to be hiring?  Can't they keep their personnel?  Are they lousy employers?

Give me freedom from awareness of their problems with personnel, I say.

And give me the new Johnny Depp movie, like yesterday.
