I worked at the Marina 3 theater from 1978 to 1981 and Randy Ruddy was my manager. Randy, in all the years since then I’ve always said it was my favorite job ever, and that you were the greatest boss because you were the only boss who ever told his employees “I’ll look out for you guys, just don’t screw up too badly”. Even after all my professional and intellectual jobs, serving popcorn at the Marina was my best job ever (with the possible exception of my current) b/c it was like hanging out with fun, interesting friends, all the free popcorn you want, serving customers who are typically in a good mood, and watching all the movies you want for free! Nirvana! And wearing the shortest and tiniest sailor dress. And lots of crazy times. And I’ll never forget my friend Dean.
