We had several encounters with semi-SG pin traders who wanted pins we had purchased for momentos of the vacation. and wanted to trade for some very "common" pins. We had one budding SG (about 11 or 12) who Demanded that we trade. when I said no thanks, his SG mom said, in a rather snotty tone, that she thought we HAD to trade, according to the rules. (we DID have our GOH nametags on the lanyards)
I told her that only applied to CM's. She did not understand and said that she didn't see that in any rules. When I asked her where she read that, she said that she got the information off the internet.
(we walked away laughing!)
Sorry that happened to you!

Actually, CMs and guests have been really nice for the most part, very friendly and one guest in particular knocked us over by trading us a really great Disney Shopping Pin she had an extra of for a very common Stitch pin that was for sale in the Park ( all of this Her Idea!). I honestly get a kick out of giving a random kid a pin if they have none to trade or trading something they want for any pin they don't.
There are a few pin sharks out there who we've learned from, who were outright nasty/greedy if you even dared to ask them what they would trade a certain pin for....There is a certain pin out there that I ask about trading for simply to hear the trader's reaction....then I just smile and walk away.

I like that quote. I worked with a woman who managed facilities. She had a plaque on her wall that read, "We'll deliver the toilet paper but we won't wipe your ass."
Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

Thanks!
Just a clarification for those who think that being abusive to nurses somehow gets better and quicker healthcare delivery

Some of the worst offenders actually work for my company!
