50th Name Tags

Post by 1karenhb » Wed May 18, 2005 12:57 pm

A lot of guests have asked about the year on our new name tags. The worst happened a couple of days ago when a woman asked and when I replied that's the year I was hired, she replied, " I thought you looked awfully old to have graduated in 1999". Thanks lady! Any other stories???

The most common question asked is "What the Class of mean?" Nothing too crazy about that.

I love it now because if a guest asks a certain question and doesnt get the answer they want, they really can't fight us seasoned CMs because we've been here awhile. For example, a guest last week was looking for a certain watch that we no longer carried. I told her we haven't carried it for years and before she could argue back she took a look at the hire year on my nametag and conceded that I was right. Boy, I love being right sometimes! :D:

Works the other way, too, though. My nametag says "Class of 2004." However, I was also an AP for nine years before that and a CM for three more.

No, I'm not a newbie.

Nearly all my friends ask why mine says 2005 when I graduated high school in 2003. Phooey!

I haven't been able to figure out why people would actually think that the Class of is the year that we graduated HS...mine is pretty cool cuz it is the year that i graduated...but still...why would they think that...
But have you seen them ask some of the older newbies..."is that the year you graduated? what did you graduate from?" and they look at them like their stupid cuz they think that they just graduated from HS...sometimes i wish i had that tho so i could mess with them...i want to get a nametag that says like...class of 1975...ten years before i was born... :D:


AP at the tolls: "What do you mean I can't use my husband's pass for parking?I paid for him to have the parking on it!"
Me: "Well, you see right there?Non-transferable!"
AP: "What is this ten dollars going to mean to Disney?Can't you just give it to me this time?I mean, come on...I pay your paychecks!!!":eek:
:ducks: closest things I could find to sheep...and that's what they all are :twisted:
:rip: this is to all the APs out there that want to get us all fired...just the mean ones tho
