@GeorgeWest: This is correct. At football games the majority of the concession stands are ran by volunteers some made up of high school students or organizations. I know a coach whose volunteers for their high school basketball team at the stadium and has done so for years.

While Aramark owns the rights to the concessions, these stands are ran by mostly high school students. One of the coaches told me how unorganized some things are because some of the staff Aramark employs to supervise the stands aren't always on the same page or aware of what's going on which is management's fault for not preparing them.

You also have to deal with groups that dont cooperate with the supervisors and makes it difficult for them to do their jobs effectively.

They have a lot to work on, and I hope they figure it out ASAP. Sadly, I think they're just making it up as they go. If this continues, I guarantee someone will be fired after this.

This always seemed to be the case, but it doesn't seem to be that way this season.

Previously you had younger kids working, with what seemed like parents supervising. They were usually polite and, for the most part had some sort of system in place, to allow things to run as smoothly as possible.

This season it has been mostly "adults." Don't appear to be part of any organization. Rather, lowly paid employees who could give a shite less about anything at all.
