I want something to wear when I'm off duty but in the parks. :D: I'd always be wearing some sort of name tag then, since most of my days off would probably be spent in the parks.
God, I wish I could move down there right now and become a CM ASAP.
Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.
We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Just an FYI: Don't wear your nametag to the parks, or else you can get into trouble. Go for the GOH badge for your days off.
That reminds me, at Soarin' Over California in DCA they sell wings with your name engraved on it, I want one of those very badly!!!

I may be crazy but I'm not insane. No way would I want to wear an actual nametag when off the clock. The GOH tag would probably get me stopped enough by lost guests.

Talk to one of the DL CMs here, you might be able to get one of them to send you one and you send them the money to pay for the pin and the shipping.

LOL, of course you must be crazy to work for Disney. Crazy about MAGIC!!!
As for the pin, I don't want to trouble anyone, but if someone doesn't mind performing the purchase for me I would be grateful.

OMG, I need a pair of February wings. It's a long story why I need them but I do LOL Do they do custom engraving or is it rack only basic names???
I will have to see if I can get to work on finding a way to obtain a pair, MAN why don't they sell those at Soarin' in WDW? I wonder if they get enough requests if they will?
I looked ALL over for something with that logo on it when we were there, even a pin at the time they had nothing. I have a "this is not a fastpass" thingy that the machine spit out when my husband's card hadn't been read properly at the gate and I turned it into a magnet for the fridge LOL

Yeah, I wasn't saying to wear your company-issued tag on your time off, please don't. However, I would also say that when I go into the parks on my day off, I like to be anonymous.
My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?

I will always remember when I was working in a grocery store (way back when I was in highschool...paper bags were the norm... and dinosaurs roamed the aisles) and a checker was ringing up a large purchase. She didn't even look up at the customer but as a bottle of wine went by she automatically said "I'll need to see an ID". She looked up and realized she was facing a very grey haired, elder lady (I estimate mid 90's in age). The customer looked up, smiled at the much younger checker and said "BLESS YOU, honey". The pure joy in the smile of being asked for ID to purchase wine really made her day. So I make it a point to occasionally ask for proof of ID (when in situations when a minimum age is required) of those obviously VERY over the limit. The lift it gives both the ID asker and the ID provider is priceless. IMHO
