Nah, all you need to do is route all bathrooms to a central point, which happens to empty out into the room where you take the complaining SG to wait for a super senior manager to come in and hear their complaint :)

It would have two doors, the 2nd one being a loooooong tunnel leading outside of the property :)

With the amount of SG's and let's add in stocks for SCM's and management, we would need much more space than Main St has to offer.

How about this,

The 5th theme park, done to different themes. 1st is the new Frontier land. Line the street with stocks and at the end, a gallows. Then there is Mideviel land, dungeons, racks, etc. Next comes Roman land, you're either a slave or crucified.

You get the idea. Any additional lands?
Awsome! :D:

I heard a story of Matt Quimet, when he was helping out by working in City Hall and one time, he was listening to this one guest bitch and complain and all Matt could do was just listen. The guest was all ticked off and he wanted to see a person high up. The guest didn't know who Matt was, so Matt just replied, "Well the person high above me is Michael Esiner". The guest was confused so Matt pulled out the business card and introduced himself as the President of the Disneyland Resort. The guest was so embarrassed that he shut up!! LOL. That was the best!!!

Let's add to ServiceLand a Indy speedway like ride where you are a bus driver taking SG's back to the resort at closing, trying to load a scooter that is controlled by a SG who can't drive it, running over the drivers toes, etc.
Do not forget the nonfolding strollers with parents who will not remove the brats who are all stinky and cranky. Maybe there could be a dodgem where you are the bus driver and you avoid Mears busses.

Barnum had a sign on a door that read something like "New Egress" and people did not know an egress is another word for exit, lol.

This quickly esclated when the guest reallized that other people were watching. Then came the demand that made every CM winch. "I want to see your manager." :(
I thought that strollers had to be folded up when getting on the monorail ? :confused:

If not the stockades, make the SG's wear one of those wooded front and back signs that say "I am a stupid guest. I was rude to a Cast Member. Please heckle and be rude to me as much as you want."

The basic rule is that if it has wheels then it is under the State's motor vehicle laws where as those without wheels are not. The omnibus, fire engine ride, horseless carriage, jitneys, trams, and busses are thus covered by the motor vehicle laws. Not sure if the trains and horse drawn trolley is covered also but I do know those are covered.

I had to do some research dealing with the matter because of the sweeping. Unfortunately guests only see a wide open area on the train or tram to leave the now quiet brat in a stroller. All they can see is them not having to do a bit of work to fold a stroller and remove their year's worth of provisions stored in the stroller.

New land to add is strollerland. You enter in a stroller and have to face what a tot faces from farty butts in your face to umbrella and purses wapping you upside the head. To simulate the uncomfortable wet diapers there will be heated seat that jolt the riders.

Then you head out to stroller dodgem where you dodge strollers. Then to the Travel Building where you get to be a service employee who has to explain why strollers must be folded on trams, why it is rude to take up space on monorails with their brats still in the stroller, why it is not safe to have dancing cooty pantsed kids on vehicles as they could hurt someone, and then you must fill out tons of paper work explaining how one brat bonked a 90 year old guest unconcious and whose party does not English just Bulgarian or some other rare language.

I found out that it is illegal to inline skate in parking lots in Florida.

Monorail has wheels. Tires, even. From what I understand, they used to have to work under the same hourly restrictions as the bus drivers. Dyl or Terry might be able to back me up on that.

So far, I haven't had a problem with getting the strollers folded. I start by apologizing all over the place, as it's not my rule or even Disney's rule; if it was, I would overlook it just this time, but last I heard it was a $1,000 fine to me, $1,000 fine to them and $1,000 fine to the company if I move that bus with the open stroller and get caught. I'm sorry the DOT doesn't have a sense of humor or compassion about these things. When I start complaining about it, it puts it in perspective. Seems to work.

Of course, they can't SEE the monorail wheels, so it must not have them.

Geez. My only complaint is that that sounds really, really messy.

We are all rather slaves now. :( If we are forming our own new lands we can also outsource custodial when events become too messy. ;) I'd not want Disney Custodial to take on more than they do now.
