But then, I have to be a little weird to have quit a good paying job to work here (but I also quit a potential heart attack.)

It is my opinion that all true CMs are mad. It is said a sign of madness is the ability to hold two conflicting thoughts in your mind and believe them both fully. CMs do this all the time in regards to the characters and their friends.

I ran out of blue boxes the other day and when I asked the CM on the next register if she had any she said she had run out about a half hour ago and was waiting for a stocker to go by. Meanwhile, the Nextel was sitting on her register right in front of her. This is a minor instance which sticks in my mind because it was recent. I have heard CMs complain about tons of problems which could have been fixed by picking the Nextel up, and when you suggest that to them they give you a look like you suggested they pick up a dead fish.

Waiting for a stocker to go by? Some days I barely see the stockers. I need anything I'll call the stocker on the Nextel, that's one of the reasons we have them. Of course it is very annoying when I call the stocker and they don't answer.

The core trainers I had never said anything like that. Heck, they taught me how to call for a stocker!

I've gotten the same thing when working in the Confectionery before. I've even had a guest or two shocked to find out you can't buy lighters or cigarettes anywhere in the parks.
Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.
We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.

Keep moving forward
