Someone like that, I would think that if you document enough problems, it would seem that having her as a guest is simply too much effort for one guest. After a number of them, if she is an AP, a nice letter saying that to avoid further exasperation on her part because of safety issues that she wishes to ignore, she will no longer be welcome!

Wow! She sounds like a piece of work!

Thankfully this person was not around when I worked Fland. I don't know if I could be that patient! If I screw up, you have a right to yell at me (I wish you wouldn't, but...). What you do not have the right to do is yell at me when I am trying to keep your fat butt safe! I used to work Wishes and even the Fland CMs who stand just inside the ropes are not allowed to go any further in or we will get tackled by fireworks crew. That is the fall out zone, and I have seen a firework fall that had not exploded. When that happens they are still live and can explode at any time. (I was working castle back, wondering why people weren't dropping their ropes yet. All of a sudden fireworks crew came running with no less than 5 fire extinguishers which they proceeded to unload on the munition.)

This guy walks around with a trench coat with literally hundreds of pins. You could hear him clanging around as soon as he got into the park. This thing must have literally weighed 50 pounds. He would just ride the rides by himself....
That's about it we don't really have anyone creepy, or regular for that matter. I think MK gets more of those than we do...
Oh dude, I saw this guys at TOT when we were there 2 weeks ago. I had to point him out to my wife, and laugh hysterically. He was apparently harassing any guest who would listen to him. Scary.

He was very much in the personal space of a family going over all of the specific countries of Epcot. I didnt stick around too long, but he definitely caught my attention and I had to do a double take.
I agree that he's a little "off". I dont think he has an actual mental disorder. Those people I have no problem with. They are developmentally challenged in one way or another. However, The Pin guy, Skywalker chick, and others are not mentally disabled. They are socially disabled, and that is what makes them strange or scary. They can help how they behave, and they do know the difference between fantasy and reality. Dont get me wrong WDW puts me into my own world as well, but its not an obsession for me.

given that this is a mostly WDW thread, I'd guess that for most of us, the answer is no.

I know
exactly who you are talking about!!!! The last time I saw her she kept insisting that we were making her wait too long for Pan. Mind you, she had only been waiting for under 2 minutes since we already had 2 wheelchair parties on. The regular line was over and hour wait and I let her know that we were doing a courtesy to her by not having her wait that long and that I didn't have to do it (I said this in a nice and non snippy way, btw). Back then she didn't have GR on speed dial, maybe her plan didn't have enough minutes or something, or I may be the cause that she has them on there now. Who knows.

Did you tell her that by law we cannot have more than two guests using wheelchairs on the ride at a time, and that this is for her safety?
