Hey Pinoy,
You and all the other CMs have my admiration for all you deal with.
I was astounded at the "You are FORBIDDEN to talk to me!" command...
I was trying to explain things and offer a supervisor for her to talk to and she kept screaming,"Now you've spoken to me again!" Another nurse and I called security to keep things from escalating....
My Younger son just got a job at a theme park here in California. Please Pray for him!

This reminds me of when i lived in ny we had a family above us and the mother would let her kids run wild anywhere. My wife went to a dinner with them and after not one but three waitress and then the manger asked her to watch her kids you would not belive the big scene she caused (my wife wanted to disapper from the embaresment) She want on about it for a month and a half.She had read that dr. spock book and followed it like it was a bible.If it said that playing with knifes is good then she would let them because the book said so. Another time she got stopped for not having them in a car seat (she was married to a nyc cop) and caused such a problem that he got called in about it and had to expalin his way out of a mess. Now my two boys act up at times but they know that when we go out to eat to behave i dont expect them to be perfect but they know how to act when in public (not that the dont try at times to pull something)

I will pray for your son as he journeys into a land of mindless guests - which is like hell on Earth. It's scary now, thinking that those women were demons disguised as humans.

I just hope that they realize the error of their ways and be more aware of what they tell Cast Members (a.k.a. workers) wherever they go. They are human and they have feelings too. I'm digusted at those mom's to this day.

[font=Arial]The parents are mostly as bad as the children. the other day at space mountain we had a child open up our silver gate and run almost to door 24 where we had trains coming in and had to station stop. the parents stood there doing nothing while we yelled and scremed for him to get back. by then it was too late and we broke. i so wanted to tell the parent that it was beause of them that our attention space travelers spiel went off.[/font]

Good God! :eek: You know, when I was a kid, if I tried shit like that, my parents would have beat me. Seriously. Not that my parents were ever the type of people to hit at random, but if you acted up in public and had a spanking coming, by God, you were getting a spanking when you got home. Parents just don't care anymore. It's so much easier to let their child get into all kinds of trouble and then sue when he/she gets hurt. :mad:

God will do something about their foolishness.

Disney is a place for "kids" and from my perspective, a guest's brain is replaced with that of a child, and we all know that kids can't raise kids. Perhaps that's the reason why parents are more annoying and childish than their children. Any questions?

No common sense, no appreciation, no freakin way! Unbelievable what some of these people do. A hundred thousand complainers daily.

Wow, biblical justification for killing them with kindness!

Keep reading, Pinoy. If you can find justification for killing them in other ways, every CM on the planet will be in your debt!!!

Easier said than done. The mouth is controlled by the spirit yet the body is controlled by the flesh. Sometimes I let the flesh control both mouth and body. Honestly, I feel as if several of these guests are "possessed" :twisted: when they enter the parks or when they can't get what they want. Either God is putting me to the test or Satan is messing with me by sending out some of his demons to the happiest place on Earth.

On the other hand, God has been really good to me by sending me angels known as the wonderful families that appreciate some of the damn things I do for them - safety checks, magical moments, etc. It seems like guests will open up and be more friendly to CMs when they're not in costume.
