I ALWAYS get confused with merchandise cast members whenever I enter a shop. Makes getting through WoD a chore. "How much is this?", "Why aren't there larges in this", "Do you have any in the back". Arghh.

One time at The Redwood Creek Challenge Trail, I was at the greeter position and was just minding my own damn business and this lady comes up to me asking me about the Electrical Parade and she walking up to me and says to me "Hey Smokey, what time is the Electrical Parade and, Well Casper, the parade starts at 8:45." She looked at me as if i was crazy and i looked back at her and turned my big black ass around. It was soo funny... :D

Oooh... on Columbia, I got... Hey look It's Jack Sparrow... that's usually odd, but my all time Favorite was standing out at the Space entrance and someone called me a CalTrans worker... wasn't quite sure what that ment, but I did get a good laugh from it.

I got called Hitler, just the other day. Why? Because I was working by a section that was full, not overflowingly full but full enough that we decided to just keep people walking. This couple comes up and I can see they're going to try and squeeze in so I go over to stop them and tell them to keep walking. and they guy kinda mumbles under his breath (and the parade had already started so it was loud anyway) okay okay Hitler.
I just laughed and told the CM I was working with. A few minutes later the couple walked back by apparantely they didn't have much luck finding a spot anywhere else. :twisted:

Why do guests think they can come up to the parade when it starts or shortly after and actually find a spot and then get mad at you when you tell them the area you're at is full and the rest probably is too?

Heh. "Jocelyn." They were all out of "Linda" badges and that was the closest they could come to my middle name "Joyce."

The closest I ever got to that was Pooh pretending that one of the Bullet Liners was a honey pot... :roll:

Oh, this is PRICELESS :!: Idiot guest seems to have run out of names. How funny this is. Aren't our guests simply amazing?

Not to mention that it's actually a compliment. Now if he'd called them 'Stupid Michael Eisner followers," those'd be fighting words...

My mother-in-law is named Linda Joyce. (I'm resisting the urge to break into "It's a Small World.")
