Stupid Guest Tricks

February wrote: So we're there and we had this incredible Mugsey- we had a kid next to us asking all kinds of questions and Mugsey was going crazy on him and the kid was just blinking and staring at him and when we got to John Wayne Mugsey is saying "What is this, this place is nuts!"

and so seeing an opportunity, I look up at him (he was standing right in front of me) and say in my best 'Joisey' accent. "Kinda like Detroit." (since I'm from Michigan)

and he glares at me and says, "This ain't nothin' like Detroit! I do good business down in Detroit!"

me, still in 'character' "What, down by the docks?"

He glares at me again, eyes burning and prop gun pointed right at me and shouts at the top of his lungs...

"SHUT UP LADY!"

We laughed for the rest of the ride and very often even a couple years later, in our house when someone hears the word Detroit on the news, someone else will say "What, down by the docks?" and everybody else will pretend to shout at me "SHUT UP LADY!"

Ah, good times...

My coaster has two seats for guests of "diverse body proportions." These seats have two seatbelts instead of one but otherwise there really is no difference in the harness. It was obvious to me before I worked there why there were two seatbelts. It is not obvious to the guests. This scene plays out multiple times a day:

Guest: "Why does she have two seatbelts and I only have one?"
Me: "Because we like her more"

In their defense it may not be obvious, and I do say it as a joke and so far nobody has taken me seriously.

I had another one today. Kid was so short the mom had to lift him into the seat! So I told them to follow me to the height check station.

Guest: "HE's too short to ride?"
(What I wanted to say): "No, I'm doing this for kicks. Ignore hte fact that the kid can't even get into the seat on his own, or the fact that the bar is at least 6 inches above his head." Instead I explained his head had to touch the bar.

Me and my partner are at Publix (grocery store). Neither one of us is in costume, but dressed in shorts and polos. He goes one way and I am looking down another ailse. I have a bad habot pf straightening thing without thinking due to disney store brainwashing.

A lady comes up to me and ask the ultimate question:
Her: Do you work here?
Me: No.
Her: (obviously not listening) Do you all cary XXXX?
Me: I dont know I dont work here.
Her: (Still oblivious) WHat about XXXXX?
Me: I STILL have no idea I don't work here I AM SHOPPING! Ask someone who works here!
Her: Well why did you tell me you worked here?
Me: (Now Livid) I didn't..If you would turn off your mouth and turn on your ears you would have heard me two minutes ago!
Her: How rude! (start going down the ailse, my other half coming up the aisle)
Him: Jim where is the can veggie aisle?
Me: Two more over!
Her: (Storming back to me) I AM REPORTING YOU TO YOUR MANAGER, YOU SAID YOU DIDNT WORK HERE AND YOU HELPED HIM! WHAT IS YOUR NAME< AND YOUR MANAGERS NAME!!!
Me: My name is Jim, my manager doesnt work here he works at my job, where I work, which isnt in this grocery store...I DONT WORK HERE!
Her: Well you won't work here when Im done talking to your manager!
Me: (Resisting the urge to whip items at her from the shelves) Thank you I hated working here anyway! HYS

(yeah, I know this post is nearly 5 years late, but I just joined in August and still haven't made it to the end of this thread)

But either way, it's been a lot of fun over. . . Christ, has it been five years? I guess I should make a new listing on here soon to celebrate huh?
