Stupid Guest Tricks

Good for you, I never had any doubts. At least you got yours in a timely manner. I waited over a month to get mine.

It finally caught up to me at Studios. I could not wait to put it on my name tag.
(now if only I can figure out a way not to lose my name tag)

As of those many thousands for whom you made magic, Wallaby, heartfelt congratulations from me and my family!!! May you have many, many more years of magic to come!

:congrats:

:break: :cheerldr: :locomotiv :thumbup: :waves: :dancear:

congratulations hugs and we all knew you could do it. Though you did take out a bunny and a deer.

That's why he got is pin on time - they were afraid of what he'd "take out" if they were late giving him his pin.
Hey BW - CONGRATS! Seems like it was just a few days ago I was reading the report on your cross-country trip. Glad you are still having fun and are happy you made the decision to move.

Nah, keep it until then. I won't accept it except in person.

I wear it with great pride. Many have come and gone already in the time I've been here. Some couldn't handle it, some discovered they were in the wrong business, some were kicked out. I've stayed, I've liked it and like it. I see the pin as a commemoration of "Thank you, may I please have another." :D: And I would like another, and another, and another. And many more. I am in a place that was designed with the idea of people like me working there. It's the first time I've been able to say that.

And the Cast Members here that I have met so far all work to keep them Magical and Happy. I hope they never succeed in changing that.

And that is one of the reasons I am getting a new pin to wear and keeping this pin safe.

Crap, someone was keeping score. Now I am in a job where it is part of the job description to not hit the animals, though I hope it's not a written rule anywhere. If it is, I'm afraid I'll have to cry.

Helps that my top speed in animal areas is 8 mph.

It seems just yesterday that I was writing that report. And I do love it here.

I plan on visiting many job descriptions before I settle down... assuming I ever do... You will need to visit repeatedly to see me in all my roles. But now that I am working Safari, I'll be able to pick up shifts in the neatest attraction at Disney World, and in my mind, on the planet. You haven't lived until you've come around the corner, and there's Willy trumpeting.

I love how many things there are to do here, and all of them in some way or another are a part of making magic for our guests.

Very, Very Cool BW! A ton of Congratulations from me! :) We all work long & hard for this one yr. pin - just a little gold pin - but isn't it Precious & Magical? You are abt as magical as the pin BW, so you'll both be shiny. ;) Only took me 14 months to get my yr. pin. :( Guess they couldn't find me. Should have complained & whined but the waiting became a game, then got to be fun, then all made bets. HA! At DL we often must create our own humor.

I remember the days when management would get upset if we were going faster than 5 in an animal area. (Luckily, the biggest supporter of the ultra-fast show times is no longer in the area, and with the influx of managers that used to be safari drivers, hopefully things will go back to the way they were)

Trumpeting, eh? Is that what they call it now?

In honour of BW's accomplishment, I did some digging around and found the following threads for everyone to remenisce on/about.

New CM 2/24/07?

Pardon the navel gazing

And, of course, congratulations to your wife on her one-year anniversary as well :D:
