well that's because they're dumb, and try and do the things you get paid to do, and they pay to hear you do.

I almost forgot about this one....
This is before creep mode on mansion. While at load 1 I would get a few AP guest who would demand the ride to be stopped. As a courtesy I would stop the ride and the AP would hop their jolly fat a$$ up on the buggie with no problem. After seeing this about 10 times I decided to take it upon myself to let the guest know that as of tomarrow we will no longer be able to stop the ride for large cattle so next time you would like to ride a buggie you gotta wobble on like the rest of us!

LOL and some of the guest are fat cattle

I loved it when really over weight guests would get the EVC or electric wheelchairs and then come into the stores complaining that it doesnt go that fast. :bang: And then expect us to do something about it. I mean comeon, if you weight as much as a hippo and your putting all that weight onto a small motor, dont you think it would go slower? Seriously, me weighing around 240 and another cast member could ride on those things at the same time and go faster then one of those hippo guests.

Isn't there some sort of switch that allows the ECV to be "faster?"
Oh, and don't forget that bottle cap for the horn!

Clarification: We in strollers have red keys..not the guests!! Man that would be too scary if the guests had red keys.

Oh, Boy! Have I got TONS of Pet Peeves from my days at working at DL:
When I was in ODV:
Being asked for re-fills
On Moonliner, being asked where the line for Rocket Rods was
Runners not doing their jobs but hanging out at the Inn Between playing cards or just sitting on their asses!
I want a fresh one (Cotton Candy or drink) after it was freshly made seconds ago
ATTRACTIONS:
APs wanting the front row for their brats
Fast Pass holders coming back early and demanding they go in now
Being told how to do your job by APs and new hires
CDS and GEMS
TDA people looking down on you like you're low common trash and they are better than everyone
Guest Control in front of Small World during parade times
Guests breaking safety rules
Costuming bitching about extra costume pieces
Favoritism and grouping among CMs/leads in your area
Being in the merge points on busy days
And.............
DUMB PEOPLE PERIOD...

Working in Disney Dining my biggest pet peeve is when the guests call and have no idea whatsoever what time they would like to eat. If you know you want to eat somewhere on a specific date and you want to go as far as to call someone about it, it's usually a good idea to have ballpark idea of what time you'd like to eat..."Well what time do you generally eat dinner?" :mad:

but one thing that use to give me a laugh is when a guest would come to my churro wagon asking for a chorro. I would giggle and say, ok, but you're going to have to wait awhile. (Chorro is the spanish word for diarhea!) :twisted:

My pet peeve is a family that waits until we are about to close and orders 15 hamburgers.
