Some Alamo Drafthouse Cinema employees in Texas say they face a hard choice as movie theaters reopen: return to work in fear or lose their paychecks

franchise of Dallas/Fort Worth received an email from owner Bill DiGaetano with an update on reopening plans.

"It's all damned if you do, damned if you don't" situation, said one Lake Highlands, Texas, employee who said he planned to return. "I'm not risking my life for $2.13 an hour," said one former Las Colinas, Texas, employee, who is choosing not to return and will instead focus on creative endeavors. He emphasized that servers rely on tips to make a living, and said he considered that an uneasy prospect now that attendance would likely be low amid the pandemic.

But the nature of the Alamo business, where servers are regularly interacting with guests in close proximity — often while they are eating and drinking — made the staffers Business Insider spoke with uncomfortable with the idea of returning to work. The DFW Alamo staffers were given a week to decide whether they would return, which some employees expressed disappointment in since leadership had not provided detailed safety protocols in advance.

Several Alamo DFW employees that Business Insider spoke with at the time expressed disappointment in the way the shutdown was handled and said they felt it had gone against Alamo's stated values, such as being "a force for good in our company, in our industry and in the world." That sentiment was listed on Alamo's website'sat the time, but is currently gone.
