What? They haven't fired you yet???

[Sweetums]

Here's a bit of fun for all WDW/DL CM's.
There are a lot of things you can get in trouble for and earn your disciplinary points at Disney. (If the system hasn't changed, I believe once you receive 5 points you are fired.) -and, of course, it takes an entire year since the time of 'incident' before the point/points are removed from your record.
I think it's safe to say under those strict guidelines that we all know the rules/boundaries and try very hard to adhere to them. -but sometimes with the guests and temptations of the parks (hey, we're only human) those rules get bent a little and the boundaries pushed.
Over the course of 9 years working at WDW, I found myself breaking quite a few rules and (Luckily) never got caught. Only a few times did I receive a point here or there, and only faced suspension/termination once. (I missed a show. Loooooong story. I'll share that one later.)
So my question to you is...

If you had been caught, how many points would you be up to by now?

You don't have to share the reasons for the points, just your "magic number".
After a quick calculation, I would have had approximately 125 points.
(Enough to be fired by Disney 25 times!)

I've been a very naughty boy.

What kinda rules are you talking about?

I think our systems worked differently, because at WDW it's a point system and after so may points you get a reprimand and on your forth rep (in one category) you are terminated. The different categories are measured differently, and on different a different matrix, I think there is attendance, safety, disney look, and stupid $h*t (not sure it's exact title but that's what we refered to it as). In my case I only had 1.5 reps (i was due for a second) in attendance only, but in 2 months the one is gone. So i guess i wasn't that bad, i just had a bad case of mono and needed to get my tonsiles(sp?) out.

I guess tenprincess said it best..."Stupid Shit".
Examples: Riding a ride in costume, Drinking while on the clock & in the park, taking illegal pictures, bringing people/friends backstage that shouldn't be there...etc.

There are some exceptions, like if you are doing a show check, doing a ride along, lost and found, making sure the ride works perfectly.

I loved doing show quality checks on buzz lightyear, i mastered my trigger finger!!

Like Jungle, Book and Canoes...We are ALWAYS riding our rides. And spieling...

[Sweetums]

OKAY, OKAY, OKAY, OKAY!!!!
I gave examples that applied to my job, because that's all I know!
The 'Riding in costume' example? Baloo the Bear should never be caught riding on Star Tours with guests during park hours. That's what I meant.
(Sigh.)
Now then,...can we get back to the question at hand? I'm not asking anybody to divulge info that could get them in trouble. You don't have to admit your crimes, just how many points you would have received if you had been caught. Is that so hard?

Oh we know, we like to give each other a hard time. You should know this you were a CM too.

[LittleDollClaudia]

I've got one. When you have been suspended or called in sick and still go into the park as a guest. Did that a few times. :twisted: And believe me, that was NOT what I was fired for. Muahahahahaha!
