The tea's not supposed to be yellow
I looked and could not find another topic so fitting for my story so I just started my own....
So the other day I was at the teacups and I was loading a special assistence guest, and as I'm doing so, this lady's (about 3 year old) child is running around and not exiting... I didn't say anything because I assumed that they would exit by the time my group has loaded. Yeah not so much, the child just whips it out and full on pees(not just a little either, I'm talking like lake Erie) I calmly just walk over the console and call custodial (before the kid has even finished). Now I'm thinking oh what to do now, this child just urinated on the large turntable I can't send any guests over there and if I run the attraction it will spread( I'm now imagining spinart). So I thought hey maybe custodial will be quick and I can just wait a little. So I calmly tell the people in the holding area that it will be a few minutes and I made sure that they all knew precisely why. I wasn't gonna lie I was mad at the lady and everyone was gonna know that it wasn't my fault, so I then go to my already loaded special assistence group and tell them whats up. And as I point to the lady who's child peed I realized that they haven't exited yet and she is changing her child on the exit ramp. But not only this the kid has no pants on and his mother is letting him run around on the ramp(mind you this is parade time and people are lined up for rope 6{between alice and teacups} and are getting a nice show). I'm just thinking who is this lady and where is CPS when you need them. So anyways I go back to my console and make an announcement over the PA that it will be a few minutes untill I resume normal boarding procedures. So I waited a little longer and once I decided custodial wasn't coming any time soon I spot loaded the ride telling people not to go to the purple turntable and then I loaded the purple turntable leaving three empty cups(hoping that when the ride stopped none of the loaded cups would land by the code u. So as I'm going to do my saftey walk, my special assistence guests tell me that the lady and her child went back in a teacup. I wasn't having it anymore I walked over to the lady and still calmly tell her that she needs to get out of the teacup. She proceeds to argue with me that this is Disneyland and they should be able to ride twice.... blah, blah, blah.... I tell her that because she did not take her child to a restroom and let him urinate anywhere I have already stalled this cylce and there was no way she was going to ride again. She then tries to guilt trip me by telling her child you know you wanted to open the door anyways now the mean lady says we have to get off... and tells me he's not going to like it, I simply said thats too bad your not riding again. So I walked back to my console and unlocked the gates, then walk back to the teacup(pink with hearts by the way) and stand there saying nothing just waiting for the lady to get her child out of the cup. As she finally gets him out she has the nerve to say whos going to ride in it anyways? I finally snapped and said oh don't worry I have another group(quickly flagged down my other Special Assistence group and filled the teacup). She finally left and I apologized to everyone for the delay (still making sure everyone knew exactly what was happening and whos fault it was). When the teacups stopped custodial was there and even she wondered how it happpened because it was a lot of pee on the turntable. It was clean, there actually were a few sighs of gratitude from the queue, and buisiness went on as usual.
*sorry it's soooo long but I had to get it out*

Damn my friend!!! I would have repremanded the mother pronto...and kicked her off the attraction...while her son still pees..im sure. Id also embarass the crap out of them...its sick and nasty and she knew it. Like this past grad night i had these 2 stupid little blonde 'barbies' try to stay in the tea cups....ducking inside no less...what dorks!! anyway I whispered into the que PA to start booooing.!! it was freaking awesome!! I had the whole entire que screaming at them to get out. I then speiled to the all ride "Yeah thanks for playing, better luck next time" and then again whispering to the que "now point and laugh as they leave!" it was sooo funny, I was getting high fives from these seniors from compton!!

Yeah it kinda does....GMC wrote:too bad it wasn't a dark ride, you coulda told him to aim for the track... does that cross the line?
But if it had been a dark ride I probably would have been fired cause I would have forced the mom and child to come with me and individually apologize to every group that I had to evac....

it wouldn't have crossed the line if it was someone doing it on purpose, and the track was about 235 volts less, and it wasn't some kid that didn't know much better, IE some young adult doing it to be funny. Maybe a little more than 5v in the track, just enough to let them know they've done bad... i'm going to hell!
Gimme some soft serve!
Probably. I've never dealt with code Us, just many many code Vs. I even had to clean up a code V at Pooh (it was either clean it up or go 101 waiting for custodial) we did so well custodial didn't have to touch it.GMC wrote:... i'm going to hell!

These are the rafts TO the island. Not AROUND, not OVER, not UNDER and not THROUGH. Thank you for riding T. Saywer's shuttle service please visit again.

Lucky you.... I wish I only had to deal with code V's but no I've seen way to many poor children wet themselves, poop their panties, and toss their cookies, not to mention the bird feces(on guests,on cars,on me).... not a pretty sight. Plus there never seems to be pro-towels around when you need one.Stduck wrote:Probably. I've never dealt with code Us, just many many code Vs.

Is this a dim refference to Mr. Toad's Wild Ride? because whether it is or not my roommate and I have determined it to be rather funny if it was.Zazu wrote:Don't complain, at least you Disneylanders still *can* go to hell. We lost our hell at MK.
