Confessions of a Theme Park Worker- new Youtube channel

It's been a while since I've posted here, so hope this is ok. Mods, if it's not, please let me know. Thanks! Used to work at Walt Disney World with Photopass, as well as Busch Gardens Tampa and Silver Dollar City. With 10 years I got lots of stories and stuff, so my family and friends have encourage...

Re: Idiot bus driver!

There's no excuse for that. I don't honestly care if it's the driver's fault or the box. In buses, we understand that guests lie about things like that, but if you have unconnected guests all saying the same thing, then you as the driver have a problem to take care of. That's what I told my wife. S...

Re: Idiot bus driver!

slightly off topic, but related, we had one the other day that just infuriated my wife. I had some business over at casting, so she went over to Downtown Disney and hopped on a bus over to Fort Wilderness to spend some time. She's ready to come back and is waiting at the bus stop, which serves both ...

Re: SGs at ToT

We love posing for pictures on the rides, but are careful to make sure that it doesn't disturb or interfere with others around us. in other words, if I'm not in the back, I won't raise my hands so I don't block someone's face. Reading maps, playing rock paper scissors, "sleeping", funny fa...

Re: CM Thank-you cards

Hi guys (and gals)! I'm gearing up for my trip to WDW in December and had another question. I saw some cute thank-you cards that were made to give to CMs at WDW. I'm a scrapbooker and card maker so I was thinking of making some of these. I thought I would ask the experts first though. CM Thank you ...

Re: Feeding Birds, Ducks, etc

It's hard to enforce a rule that the original commander in chief used to flagrantly break all the time. There are several stories out there of Walt getting a box of popcorn from one of the vendors then taking it out and tossing it to the birds. Y'know, that's one of those things that I don't remembe...

Re: Nights of Felons AKA Nights of Joy.

Jumping in way late and after laughing at all of the jokes on the thread... As a Christian and a youth pastor, as well as a CM, these kinds of special events are a never ending source of frustration for me. As a pastor friend of mine says, I see this and the "spirit of slap" comes all over...

Re: photo pass

Test Track is still the only ride that uses PhotoPass. All of the other rides are independant photo systems where you'll have to buy the picture at that ride on the same day you ride. Still lots of photographers out around the parks and with the characters though. And you can use the same photopass ...

Re: Dear Fellow And Lady Cast Members :)

Honestly, with regards to outsourcing the Cast Dining to Aramark (crappy company, what the hell was going through the minds of the bean counters in Burbank,) Disney's going to find this backfiring on them when the food goes even further to crap and the prices get raised so much that all the rank an...

Re: How NOT to return to your resort

^ Yeah, but a large percentage of those male Disney characters aren't interested in the ladies, if you catch my drift. They might be offended at you offering them up like that. :D
