I would think that the 2 year old driving the train issue would easily be solved by a supervisor, "well she can, but only after my supervisor approves it, and she is properly trained and insured".
Of Course, that might not stop this particularly Stupid Guest :rolleyes:

Just out of curiosity, is there a middle ground on this at all, like, once the train is stopped at the station, could you let the little brat sit on your lap for a picture "driving the train" or something like that? I'm just curious if you have any positive recourse of things you could offer to help defuse the situation... Not that this particular abusive bee-atch deserved it... (Sorry if that's an SG question, I don't mean to open the floodgates to SG's constantly requesting this or the flames that I sense could be coming my way now...truly just an innocent question out of ignorance.) :o:

Yes and No....

The rule is that if the train is stoped and parked in a station.. then a guest who is monitored by a cast member may sit inthe hot seat for photo ops. at the discretion of the driver...

Yes but most drivers only do it when they are trying to make a guest happy when that driver may have done something that could get them in trouble like "yes I know you heard me cuse but let me distract you by maing magic here take my seat" and wow look at that the guest has already forgotten the no-no

Ignorance from you Kwahati? Not! Don't think I've ever read anything ignorant from you. Doubt we ever will. :)

Oh really? So, they don't just let anybody drive the monorail? ...Big Wallaby, can I say "it"?

(Wallaby will know what this means)

Let me set this straight... the average monorail CM can not allow a guest to sit in the seat durring operation of the train. A manager, while in the front cab, can over see a guest driving experiance at the managers discression. This is a random event and only granted by certin managers.

Other then that.. the statement still stands true to what I posted earlier.

Which was my experience, and one that will never be forgotten, at that.

But yeah, I can see the challenges of having a two year old operating... well, psychotic.
