Witnessed SGT from New Year's

Post by DevilDuckie » Mon Jan 08, 2007 12:37 am

1) Heelies, heelies, heelies. Who are these utter idiots who let children wear ROLLER SKATES in the theme parks, restaurants, crowded breakfast room of the hotel, etc? Why would you DO that? Cannot count how many times I was crashed into or had near misses with these brats.

2) The lady who let her child strike me HARD on the top of my head and then got all indignant when I turned around and yelled "OW!" and proceeded to tell her friend (in Spanish) how wrong it was for me to be mad because her kid shouldn't apologize because I don't speak Spanish. Except I do. And I understood every word and neither she nor her kid ever said "lo siento" and since when does language have anything to do with letting your kid hit people?

3) The lady with a known anxiety disorder who overstressed/over stimulated herself and had a panic attack on 12/31 in the middle of Main Street USA. Oh wait... that was me. >face palm<

On that front, can anyone here help me figure out how to get a kudo through. A CM took me out from first aid to the front gate backstage in order to help me maintain and she was so kind and helpful that I really want to say something. Unfortunately, due to the state I was in the best I can do for description is "sunglasses, tan coat, maybe brown hair" and named Melinda/Mathilda/Melissa... something like that, and when she was on duty. Who could I write to or call who could identify her and pass word to her boss?

The costume sounds like it could be admissions or Strollers, but could be something else too. Do you have any more details you can give us? Once you have an idea of what department she's in, you should write to City Hall, and hopefully it'll get to the right person.

Edit: What color jackets do they issue to First Aid nursing staff?

She may have worked at first aid. I have the date and time of the incident, but when I have an attack I generally keep my head down to limit the sensory overload and I'm pretty distracted. Unfortunately the friend who was with me is bad at details and not much help. I'm pretty sure it was the same coat the people at the front gate wear.

Just send this information, along with the exact time and date, to:

WDW Guest Communications
PO Box 10,000
Lake Buena Vista, FL 32830

I've seen kudos passed along with a lot less data than this. Good news is rare, so everyone does all they can to speed it along.

I've noticed that the heelie population has EXPLODED this holiday season. I saw a flippin' Heelie GANG in my park 2 nights ago. About 12 kids all rolling around while I was sweeping. I say to the group "I need everyone to walk please while in the park!" and followed them a little bit. One girl turned around every 5 seconds or so to see if I was still there... haha

Come to think of it, compared to the CFA runs, lost children, suspicious package, smoking ODV cart, flooded freezer, food poisoning, near domestic dispute, and guests smoking marijuana in the restroom, the heelies seem tame in comparison.

Yah, I'm long overdue for a vacation.

Hey, now where does stalking me fit into this equation? Although I suppose that would be a good thing for the season, right? :D:

On Monday, I'll be able to apply for rehire again. I'm going for Attractions, and if I get it (dependent on whether Casting gets off their asses this time, and whether I don't go to IKEA as internal Tech Support,) I plan to take a personal Zero Tolerance policy on Heelies.

Hey darph, you do realize that I just quoted Polar, he was the one dealing with the smoking ODV cart.

I see that the drinks are coming as hard and fast as ever, huh. :D:
