Specifically, these:

Is anyone at the Park wearing these yet? Or will they be issued officially October 1, or whenever the YOD starts?

I haven't seen any in person or heard about distributions yet.

I know it doesn't help officially, but according to Eyes and Ears, the WDW version of this tag (which appear to be identical except that ours obviously say WDW instand of DL) is being distributed to areas the week of 9/18 and Cast will receive them the last couple weeks of September, to be worn as of 10/1.

I'd assume DLR might have a similar timeline for theirs? (though you know what happens when one assumes ;) )

Does this pic mean that the DL nametags will not have the CM's hometown on display, or is that still in the works?

the pic I saw in Eyes and Ears depicted a hometown, so I'm believing that the WDW versions WILL have the hometown on the nametag.

A totally off - topic!!! The employees at Universal Studios have the name of their favorite movie on their name tag.

Rocket Scientist at "HISTA"/ Astro Orbitor,

Yeah, and I have three or four different ones, each with a different movie listed (technically two are duplicates, but on one of the two, the woman at Wardrobe misspelled Apollo in Apollo 13.)

Is it Universal movies only? :confused:
One of my favorite movies was made by MGM.
Of course there's 20th Century Fox.

Yup, although if it's a co-production with Universal, it's considered OK.

(though you know what happens when one assumes ]Ho-say, you're safe this time with assuming. ;) I read the new DLR CRG last night & this was abt our time line. Can't remember exact dates & too tired to go to car. Info abt new name tags was white sheet within yellow CRG so CMs would hopefully see. I do know all name tags will be new as of Oct. 1. Hometown on tag. Bet at least 60% will be from Anaheim. :rolleyes:
