Sure he will be out groping again! :mad: In less than a month is my guess. Few more slaps on wrist with a bit more time in jail. Will repeat a couple more times then prior crimes will surface &/or several will remember him as a molester. The jerk's records will finally be uncovered & the courts will once again tell victims & society "OPS." :twisted:

It was very good. We had 18 people knocking back margaritas, beer and wine. The Mexican potluck was overwhelming with all the food.

The weather cooperated as it didn't start raining until after midnight

Just a question to the "friends of" out there. This young women said that even if she was beat up, she just has to go along with it. "That's part of the Disney integrity. We have to." she said. Is this TRUE??? I just can't believe that Disney doesn't want to keep it's cast members safe regardless.

I know performers are allowed to walk off if they are in trouble, and are able to do so. Unfortunately, it isn't always possible to do so. Which is why it is important for the character attendant to always try to keep an eye on the character(s).

No, it's not true. It's possible that the performer felt like she had to stay, though, whether from pressure from management, or from peers, or from the guests themselves. Management makes a HUGE difference in your working environment (obvious statement of the year!).

Have any of the friends of characters ever thought about wearing brass knuckles underneath the costume gloves? It would add a special surprise to anyone manhandling a character. :twisted:

There's also the duster model of knucks. These have small spikes arrayed along the working end of the tool. :twisted: :twisted:

As 2 other posters have stated, no, CMs do not have to & should not subject themselves to any type of abuse! I learned this the hard way - twice. After each incident DL Security came to me, sat me down & firmly told me I was never ever to let a guest abuse me in any way. Bottom line - "You have an abusive guest, call us, then walk." Pays to know a few DL Security officers. :) I've since only walked out of my location once for protection. Made sure my cash wrap was covered then walked away. Felt great!
