IT'S MY HUNDREDTH POST!!!! GO ME!!!
congrats on 100, i put my 200th in a reply on the communications forum, so i couldn't go edit it to say go me. but i was wondering where they've got you stuck now? Pooh(p) or Splash (seems to me that that's where just about everyone from mansion goes, i'm kinda jealous, one of your fellow butler's went to splash, and i went to indy, he got a mountian, and i got a fancy dark ride ridden with down times, and we hired on the same day (orentationed anyway) oh well it's not the end of life.

Thank you GMC. I have no SGTs to add cause I have had no hours. (8 months means NOTHING!) I'm at Pooh. I should have fought it for Splash (lots of people got splash with less seniority). But I was gracious and took it. Yeah being stuck at Pooh -grumbles- but it is funny to watch the canoe boys fumble and get scared of the buttons. I offered one a paddle and he screamed "Yes!"

Now at my location the guests in wheelchairs must wait in part of the queue, and then they spit off. At the point where they split off I hate it when a person in a wheelchair isn't the first one in the party and the party is a party of 12 to 15 and the rest of the party that was in front of the guest in the wheelchair gets all pissed off because I asked the person in the wheelchair how many in their party and they all have to backtrack.
Also what about when you ask them how many in their party and they say 5, but only two are at the load point, and rest of the party is half way back in the queue. We even have a spiel that says keep your party together in the preshow speil.
You have my sympathy when it comes to that! At Small World, we had a maximum of 15 guests including kids and the answers I get from brainless guests are four but to them it meant 6 or 8. I reply with I thought you were four and they come back with "Oh, they're with us!" You must include EVERYBODY!

Another favorite, when they don't count the kids at all. You ask how many they tell you 4. Four people go by, including kids, you go to stop what you think is the next group and suddenly there's like three more people in their group because kids don't count as people or something.
I saw a similar thing happen yesterday on the Monorail. I asked if I cound sit in the nosecone, and waited by the door. The pilot saw that I was the only one there, and said that due to policy, he couldn't have just one person in the nosecone, and he asked for a party of 4 from the front compartment. A family of 5 come out, since apparently they didn't count the kid. I offered to sit in the cabin, but the pilot told me not to... I felt kinda bad about that fifth family member who had to stay behind... :(

That makes one of us.
If they don't know how to count to five, then they're not bloody smart enough to ride together in the nose cone.

Presicely, if four are asked for that means that only four get to go. the end, buh bye.

This has to be the most stupidest answer I got when asking how many do you have? The answer: 0. Yes, 0 and they were serious too! Took them a good 30 seconds to realize they had more than 0 in their party. Boy its going to be a long summer.

ME- HOw many in your party?
Guest- um... 1, 2... 4... 6... I think we have 4... o wait, 4 and a half!"
ME- 5?
Guest- no, four and a half
And then there is the famous trying to find the party of two so that the ride doesnt go empty, you yell,"party of Two!", and everyone looks at you as though you didnt know what the hell you were talking about. Then everyone looks at eachother, starts to think, and then you get the party torwards the end of the line that say that they have two, and come through the whole line to be in front, and yet they have three. THen when you get ready to load the next car, the first person you talk to in line has two.... I dont get it....
I may have the answer to man's hardest question!: applause, fireworks, trumpets:
I think that the people are so shocked and stunned to finally reach the ride that they are incapable of speaking. (sort of like the deer caught in headlights kind of thing)

When we don't have ops ppl in toontown (Hall of Fame) the loader gets the ppl. I love when guests say "3 kids will be seeing the characters" or "we will be only taking X pictures." I SAID HOW MANY IN YOUR PARTY! Of course the classic splitting the families up b/c they are retarded. Half of the family went in to the room and the other half stayed in line b/c they said 5 (when they had 8) and I took 5 and made the rest wait. I felt so powerful :)

Here is a hilarious one from space mountain I heard when i was at WDW for the Everest passhole preview.
CM: "How many in your party?"
Guy in front of me: "What party? I thought this was a ride."
