Alright as was mention WDW has had this for a while. Most of your problems seem like the leads still haven't figured out the ins and outs. It will get better I promise. Now at WDW we can clock in or out from any CDS computer. Since you can clock in up to 15 minutes early we usually clock in near the locker rooms, aka near the mouth of the tunnel, and then walk to our location. When it is our start time we clock in for our assignment. If our bump comes early we can start walking early and find a cds computer to clock out from. Has anyone received an explanation as to why that is not possible at DL? Well in any case I hope it gets better for you. If not you will get used to it and eventually it will become routine.

No, this is a roller coaster, it does not circle around the park!!!

The problem is that many of us don't know where CDS computers are closer to Harbor point (Ok tomorrowland people you need to show me how to get to your computers).

On the Westside I know Mansion, Splash and Pooh have it. There is a good chance Pirates has it as well. GMC which Adventureland/Frontierland attractions have it? My guess is Thunder and Indy

All I can say is that CDS spreads like a wildfire. It's the worst system that I've seen since I've been at WDW. We use it on the Movie Ride and it doesn't work unless a coordinator babby sits it. When I've worked Tour Guide I've had many times it would have me break somebody right when their show is leaving. Now I cannot get the person until they come back to the loading area. It's a 20 min show and this happens at least 10 to 15 times a day. I have no idea why they didn't take it out of the ride.

indy and BTm have it, trains is getting it tuesday, jungle might be getting it that day too (i'm soo hoping that it flops at those two attractions as bad as it did before.) wd story will probly be getting it soon, it's on the vehicles computer, but i don't know if it's being implemented yet. i must say however it's not such a bad thing, considering my lead all the times i've been at indy have pretty much said that they don't trust it, and paid us the old fasion way. so no waiting around to clock out for me.


Gimme some soft serve!

SO yesterday 3.0 stuck me at Unload at mansion for an hour and a half kept skipping me in rotation... then they thought they fixed it and low and behold I got stuck at Load 1 for an hour they tried fixing it again and when I went to log in it said i couldnt because it was past my clock in time mind you that I have been there for 4 hours already so then they had to call the CDS admin and he couldnt fix it so they had to delete my shift and start me over from when ever I clocked in again... so I clocked in again and it said I had a 2.4 hour shift there the lead said dont worry about it the would fix it after my shift to make sure I get payed for my full 8 hours.. well I come into the mansion this morning and the lead informs me that CDS payed me for 11 hours yesterday and I only worked 8 and it was to late to change anything becasue the paycheck is being processed so that means yea CDS did screw me over but I ended up with 3 hours of time and a half on my paycheck for ot that i never worked :) that is the only good thing I could ever think of comming out of 3.0 for me... and then the COmputer started to do it to me again today but they fixed it.... I was really hoping for another day of 11 hours of pay hehe
