Zzutak   10 #1 Posted October 1, 2018 Hello  Does anyone else here frequent this place? (as a big fan of 'fringe' cinema, I've been attending weekly since I moved to Sheffield in the Summer)  Am I the only one who finds the Box Office staff hostile?  Seriously it's got the point where I'm considering abandoning the place and going elsewhere.  ---------- Post added 01-10-2018 at 10:48 ----------  Oops this should have been posted in the 'Going Out' thread, can a MOD/ADMIN please move.  Thank you  Zz  ---------- Post added 01-10-2018 at 10:52 ----------  Thank you ..

GinTreeS7 Â Â 18 #2 Posted October 1, 2018 I'm a frequent user but have never found them hostile, maybe they are a bit complacent in their jobs. Â Can you substantiate your claim a bit more with say some concrete examples? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

jemson   10 #4 Posted October 4, 2018 Surprised to see their food score isn't anything to brag about: https://www.scoresonthedoors.org.uk/business/the-showroom--58439.html  Isn`t that more of an admin exercise than a true guide?

RichK Â Â 10 #6 Posted October 5, 2018 Isn`t that more of an admin exercise than a true guide? Â There's truth in that. I just thought a business like showroom would skate through the exercise somehow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
GinTreeS7 Â Â 18 #7 Posted October 5, 2018 Yes the OP has still not given a reason. Â I sometimes find the bar people a bit slow when its busy, but they seem largely on the young side and not very experienced. I guess they recruit a lot of students from nearby for temp work.

Zzutak   10 #9 Posted October 5, 2018 Yes the OP has still not given a reason.  Nor does the OP intend 'giving a reason' I've had negative experiences with the staff (one in particular) and I merely wished to know if anyone had endured similar ...

Reminds me of my youth, back in Croatia (former Yugoslavia at that time). Simple, cinema, just for the movies, not rocking chairs, 4d effects, etc. I don't want to say, by no means, that Showroom is on the level with cinemas in former communist countries during the 80 s, just want to point at that nice level of simplicity, when going to the cinema was exactly that, going to the cinema, without nachos, wine, beer, sweets, special effects etc. Edited October 6, 2018 by Guest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

I just gave an observation from my point of view. The solution is pretty simple, if you don't like the cinema, the staff, just avoid it. "Dear God ...." .
