Can you turn the thunder down?

I think that water melts what is left of the guests brains...

As soon as it started to rain, people starting going over the ropes so they could go hide under the canopy of the fantasy land theater.... a dozen cm's yelling at them to get their ass back in line doesn't do anything, cuz "it's wet out there." :roll: That was when it was only sprinkling... after MUCH effort, they finally get all the guests back where the line is SUPPOSED to be. But it starts raining pretty hard, so back over the ropes they go... altho I do always find it funny when they hop over the ropes then start running and fall and make an idiot of themselves.

Anyway, they finally let everyone into the theater. There's a little bit of thunder, and a lady comes up to the counter and asks for us to "please turn the thunder down, it frightened my son"

Yes lady... we'll do that just as soon as we shut off the rain too.

:roll:
I like the ones that decide hiding under the very metal and very electical filled cart is a good thing to do....
Or when they get mad when we evacuate the theatre that is full of electronics, metal benches and a moat full of water, but it's safe to stay in during a lightning storm.

Heh, the nice thing about guest saftey during rainstorms is that they have HUGE lightning rods convienently located in almost every outdoor cast break area...look around kids... remember, if your heart stops...they don't have to pay you anymore... they lose a guest, they lose money. Think about it- CIRCLE OF LIFE...*does african tribal dance*

I know they do, but I also know that we've had lightning miss the rods and hit other things as well.

I just love working at an outdoor attraction during a thunderstorm.

"Are you open?"

"No, we have to close during electrical storms."

"But will you open later?"

"Yes, we'll reopen about 20 minutes after the storm clears."

When will the storm clear?"

"About 20 minutes before we reopen."

"When will you reopen?"

"About 20 minutes after the storm clears."

I like to see how many times a guest will go around this cycle. It's not like I've got anything better to do.

I would have told her that the thunder wasn't under my control. It wasn't my department.

"Sorry m'am, they just fired the guy who is in charge of turning that down for us. Just sit tight and hope they find someone to take his place soon."

"It's not really raining. Someone must've left on the roof sprinklers."
