So that's where the name The Deck came from. I just thought it was another cutesy name for the Diner. Anyways, sorry for your termination. I got it too for attendance, except I was taking care of my sick son and they denied my family leave. Management sucks.

I know it's a little past, but Its still funny no matter what. I was standing at the Entrance of the Mark Twain dock... and this is when they were setting up for the Pirates Premier. We all remember the GIANT screen and the many bleachers.... well I was standing at Turnstile with a friend and this random guy walks up to us and asks, "when's the next dolphin show?"
Trying not to laugh in his face I had to leave... come on, do you really think dolphins live in that nasty rivers o' america? The only thing that's in there is that stupid sea monster, some damn ducks, and a cell phone or two.

hehehe, on the JC river there must be 23948234890 pairs of sunglasses at the load and unload area. I lost so many pairs of ray-bans (yeah they were cool in 1991) by bending over to drop/pick up the last cushion or a guest bumping them off me.

Hey, I
still wear my Ray-Ban cats!!! They're my signature accessory - Jackie-O style ... lol. The blade styles that are popular now look stupid on me. I also still wear them with the idiot cord I adopted after dunking my first pair in the station flume at Pirates - I'd just tucked them into my vest and they fell out - was able to fish them out before they were destroyed, and I've bought two more pairs since
I think my i.d. from 1985 is still somewhere in the river mud ... if they didn't fish it out when the river was drained for maintenance or Fantasmic construction ... lost it during canoe race practice. I do still have my original red i.d. from 1984 when I first hired in - damn I look like a baby girl in that one....

[the DEC]
Thank you BirdMom! Wondered where this term originated. Was working backstage one night abt 11 p.m. when APD rolls up behind me. Just hired in so I didn't understand what was going on. He goes real slow behind me then tries to pass. What the ? is he doing? We'd had no accidents, I'd heard of no emergencies this night & why was APD entering backstage via Ball Gate area? Finally stopped him & asked if I could help. God knows where he would have driven if not stopped?! He looked like a rookie, sounded like one also. He proceeds to tell me he was hungery & buddies told him to go to Disney Land for a "GOOD" meal @ The DEC. I'm blank. Have no clue what APD blue means. Suddenly I vaguely remembered a friend's mom telling me she used to eat @ The DEC. Told him The DEC no longer existed & he had to get his cruiser out of my backstage area. No lead around - didn't care what I said to APD. Mr. blue begins to back out then suddenly stops & calls me over. "If The DEC isn't here where can I get a free dinner?" A courteous CM might have said Westside. Rolled my eyes then told him; "Go across Harbor to McDonald's. They always give APD free meals." :P
What a JERK! Talk abt stupid Guests ... APD ranks high in my book.
