Ugh, god, that's a GREAT one!!!

When I worked as a receptionist at Kaiser a few years back I vividly remember this GIANT woman walking up tot he counter and as I asked for her $20 copay she reached into her cleavage, had to dig around for a bit, then pulled out a SOGGY $20 bill. I try and I try, but I just can;t forget how disgusted I was. I actually asked her to just put it on the counter, then scooped it into my drawer artfully while handing her her paperwork. grossgrossgrossgrossgross!!!

Now I'm much more concious of this and avoid it at all costs. So thanks board friends - you have successfully reformed my bad behavior.
Just remember, that when you put something in your mouth (card/id/money) you are also putting whatever germs transferred to it from who ever has held it before!

What do CM's think of guests that get and wear the bday button if though it's not their bday?

My bday is Feb 3 but we aren't able to get to WDW until the first week of March. I'm not looking for the freebies that go along with the current promo, if fact I'm not really looking for anything except a great time with my family. But we always celebrate my bday at WDW!

If you are celebrating your birthday, even if your actual birthday has passed I see nothing wrong with wearing a birthday button.

Also, don't get the button and expect people to not wish you a happy birthday. This seems to be too common where a person is wearing a birthday button and is wished a happy birthday and they get upset about it. If you don't want people to wish you a happy birthday, don't wear the button.

I may need to do it one day on my June trip, it is only about 1 week after my birthday so it isn't too far off.

So, having had a birthday anytime within the past year is good? :D:

That won't be a problem for me as I am what my family calls an "attention whore". I love a lot of attention. So bring on the bday wishes :)

I don't understand that. The whole idea behind birthday buttons is so others will know it is your birthday and so they can wish you a happy one. If you don't want to be wished a happy birthday then why have something that tells everybody it is your birthday?
