Yep, saw that as well, I thought of here. Glad to see someone else thought it was worth posting here. Say, what is the proper way (other than application of a clue-by-four) to address that situation?

Who am I talk with here? I'm pretty sure I don't know who you are even at the ride. I don't bother with remembering names these days.
I'm Rachel. I am the only Rachel who works at GMR and I just started there last month.


For Narnia! And for Aslan!

That website is pretty funny. Thanks for posting. I just wasted a half hour at work reading about 10 pages!

I love Not Always Right, I check it everyday. Always something good on there.


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.

I did check out that web site. Very fun to read and the t-shirts were funny. :D:

One of these days I will go to Barnes and Noble and get one of those books for my small reading collection.

When I worked in Attractions, I carried a rather small, well-focused, very bright LED flashlight. In addition to normal flashlight tasks (finding things in dark places, esp. if someone dropped something on a dark ride), it was very useful for people taking flash pictures in ... say ... Philharmagic. Get to a place where I have a clear line of sight to the person using their flash, turn the flashlight on to it's highest setting ... usually after less than a second, they got the idea and put their camera away.

Hi all. First post.

As a frequent guest of WDW I have to say, this is my biggest pet peeve. I can't stand people that take flash pics on rides, especially POTC. What I would love to see is a CM get on the speaker and point out the person snapping the shots and say "Yes, you in the red shirt - Could you please stop taking flash photos?"
