Re: Why take your kids?
What I hate is when you are in line and some SG is yacking on the cell phone. You are getting food, this is not your home. Get off the phone and buy the food and leave!!!

And that is not only specific to Disney parks as well. But in general. Seriously, get off the phone when in a check out line!turkeyham wrote:What I hate is when you are in line and some SG is yacking on the cell phone. You are getting food, this is not your home.

Re: Why take your kids?
I generally don't have a problem with people on their phone in line, but they should be away by the time they get to the front. Back when I was working at Arby's, we would occasionally get customers who would order for several people over the phone, this is annoying because we were required to double check the order with the customer before completing the transaction and this left no way to do so. I have occasionally called in line to see what people want, but I am done before I get to the front of the line so there is no problem. If I was still at Arby's and had someone come up to me on their phones I think I would pull mine out and tell them that my call was a matter of life or death :twisted: .

Re: Why take your kids?
Cell Phones are supposed to be prohibited in our back clinic areas, so whenever someone answers one while I am talking to them, I usually walk away and find something else to do :twisted: I'll return after I've accomplished whatever urgent task I needed to do elsewhere. I also am watching to make sure they are not taking pictures with them( other patient's privacy issues).
Have asked kids to put away the hand-held video games while I am speaking to them or taking their vital signs more than once. I blame the parents for that one.
My favorite was EMO kid who decided that the nurse (not me) was not worthy enough to speak to/answer and would instead write notes to his Mom saying how stupid we were including the Doctor.....No, he was not mute or otherwise disabled/ mentally ill. Just EMO.

His mom is raising him to be a winner! Do you ever wonder how kids like this really function when it comes to getting a job, or functioning in normal society on their own?My favorite was EMO kid who decided that the nurse (not me) was not worthy enough to speak to/answer and would instead write notes to his Mom saying how stupid we were including the Doctor.....No, he was not mute or otherwise disabled/ mentally ill.

Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.
