Alamo drafthouse employees protest new qr ordering system

Denver's Alamo Drafthouse is facing a standoff between its employees and a new technology meant to streamline ordering. Workers at the Sloan's Lake location have taken to picketing outside the theater, decrying a recently introduced QR code system that allows patrons to place food orders on their phones instead of relying on servers.

Employees claim the change cuts into hours, tips and face-to-face interaction

Union members with the Alamo Collective say the shift to mobile ordering has led to reduced hours, lower tips, and a decrease in the personalized service the theater prides itself on.
