I'm working on the Orlando one. Slowly working on Donnie's brain cells.

Been to San Diego, didnt impress me (no offense) Could be cause I was with my ex-lesser half and I now hate his guts so it holds bad memories. Tho I did like the shaved ice from a beach shop, that I bought myself (cheapskate ate it but wouldnt pay for it..hmmmppfff)

I'm only about 40 miles from the JB factory so you find them everywhere around here.

People in San Diego are the worst drivers in the world (I think all the signs being in english might be a legit problem around there.)

If I could find a job I could servive on near WDW I would be gone in a minute.

While I am not a CM, I deal with the general public and we get lots of stupid questions. The dumbest thing I am asked, and it happens fairly often is when I answer the Phone, it goes like this: Me: "Johnny's" (this is the name of the company I work for)
Dummy on the other end of the phone: "is this all about towing?"
Me: "noooooooooo, thus me answering the phone "Johnny's". "
this is often followed by "do you have their phone number?"
My answer: "no, i never bother to memorize my competitors phone number"

I've had people call for my competitors' numbers before. It is one thing if I look up the part but we don't carry it for them to ask but quite a different thing to just call and ask for the number.

I also get "Is this AutoZone?" a decent bit. This is after answering the phone "Thank you for calling AutoZone, this is <name>. How can I help you?" I'm tempted to answer "That's what I just said, dummy" but I don't, I answer "Yes, it is."

I would never get away with giving a smart remark like you give even though I do think them.

We had a prank caller keep making calls to the Soarin' Tour Desk so they changed the extension. That really screwed with our heads for a few days.

Oh yeah, a funny one the other day. On the Wildfire Hero's promo tickets being offered at the 2 Calif parks, they have a 30 window to use the 3 days. One SG using his ticket came up to the window and asked, "Why does the ticket say that it expires on 2/11/08?" CM (me): "Because it expires on 2/11/08." "Oh, the person that sold it to me told me that it didn't have an expiration date." "Yeah, it expires on 2/11/08."

At least he read the ticket. Maybe he didn't understand it, but at least he read it. A lot better than most SG.

Heres a great crank call for you, we get one one night from some kids, my GF answers and they start making funny noises so she says "Citrus
Heights Police, how may I help you" of course they hang up. Well, I guess they didnt think of caller ID cause she calls them right back and says "this is the Citrus Heights police, we recieved a call from this number." they hang up and she calls again, and again, finally mom picks up the phone because its ringing off the hook. My Gf tells them its CH PD and she is sending an officer over to "check things out" mom promises she will handle the situation and there is no need to send an officer. Dont think those kids were making too many phone calls after that.
