"Have a Magical Day" - Getting a Little Paranoid!

[Syndrome]

I know what the infamous phrase "Have a magical day" means at WDW, and now I'm getting a little paranoid in my dealings with DCL! I'm a part-time travel agent, and I've noticed that they often end the call with those words, even if I don't think I've been a SG (STA?) during the call. Is it ever used in a neutral manner? Or am I doing awful tricks that I'm not even aware of?!

You should really see someone about that paranoia ;)

LOL!! Yes, my professional mantra is: All statements are neutral until we choose what to attach to them. I need to have some self-discussion on why I am choosing fear and paranoia to something that sounds so harmless. :p:

Don't forget to charge yourself for your time. Would that be a tax write off?

Is it ever used in a neutral manner?

New hires use the phrase most often. :D:

I believe that most of the folks on the phone lines are pretty much required to end calls with that phrase.

I've said that phrase so much that it lost all meaning. I gotten used to it so much that I always ended my voicemail messages like that, lol!!

I use "magical day" in most of my speils "Welcome back! When your boat stops, please disembark to your left, and have a Magical day here at the Magic Kingdom!" or "Welcome back! Please step out to your right and have a magical night". It sounds better in my area, and most of us use it there anyways. Now..."Have a Disney Day" on the other hand... :twisted:

Some CM friends have told me that "Have a Mickey Day" is pretty bad too!

Reminds me of a bumper-sticker from years ago," Don't tell me what kind of day to have". :mad:
It does get ' kind of ' annoying though.
