Re: Disney offering buyouts to 600 execs at resort unit

The question I really have is why do we need so many executives that we can get rid of 600 of them, and apparently still have enough left to run the place? And how many are there? They are too busy running around trying to look important while sweating you on the mundane BS and selling you out. Abo...

Re: Rude CMs............ On Their Day Off!

As a CM you know the rules and must be extra professional and curtious even when out of costume. Just part of the gig. I used to hate it when CMs would come to me at validator or temple with a group of 5-10 people and their ID card out like it was some magic pass.

Re: "Will they still have fireworks today?"

I used to wear my old Army polypro glove liners, real thin but real warm. The ones Disney gives you suck. I remember when I went in for a indy shift when it was raining I would put on thermal underwear and gloves. The hat condoms are a must if you wear one. Especially with the indy hats, they deform...

Re: You Made Us E - Stop the Attraction For THIS?!?!?

Not saying you are wrong, but maybe the OP on Board X just used "E-stop" as opposed to "regular stop." He could also have heard the woman complaining about the purse, and assumed that the ride was "E-stopped." *shrugs E-stop removes 480v from the bus bar. Vehicle motio...

Re: You Made Us E - Stop the Attraction For THIS?!?!?

This story is bull. I know indy like the back of my hand and if you e-stoped the attraction for L&F you would probably be termed. SOP is to cycle out the attraction then back up the jeeps and then hit a RIDE STOP!!!!! Not an E-stop. Big difference. E-stop requires a total sytem reset

Re: Counterfeit Fast Passes????????

I have never seen fake FPs. They are a thick paper and relatively hard to duplicate. I have seen lots of fake re-ads as well as ones that are 5-6 years old and guests still try to use them. I am pretty strict about FPs but its basically an unwritten rule to let 1 person in without a FP per group. So...

Re: New guy from Indy

All you have to do is post questions like any other board. There is no guarantee that people will respond. Why not title it "DLR Indy questions". Some people here are not CMs but are knowlegeable about the parks and Disney and can answer. Even I know that the Jungle Cruise does not automa...
