I've actually rolled a couple into the shade, cause while that's not much, it's better than being in direct sun.

Yep. We frequently relocated our stranded seniors, and fetched water from the coffee window at Tusker House. One poor gent was so ashen and disoriented that a manager wheeled him down to First Aid.

No one will ever beat the stroller people out for total bat$h!+ crazy behavior though...

Oh, dear. Now you've done it. By writing that phrase, you have unknowingly thrown down the gauntlet, and now SGs will be be attempting to outdo each other to be even crazier... :)

The SG these days at the park, are much dumber than they appear. A few days ago, a female SG tried to chair her stroller inside the flaps of the trash can. Luckly security was nearby and told the SG that was not allowed and she was unable to secure her stroller. :eek:

being one of those strollers cast members, I can recount so many stories. Some that have made fellow cast members quake with rage and some that have made cast members cry.

But nothing makes us happier to have a sg lose their receipt and can no longer get their deposit back for a wheelchair or ecv.

What happens if a SG has their rental stroller stolen and they don't have their receit from renting it? Do they have to get another one? :eek:

No, you steal a receipt from some other SG. :twisted:

As a counselor I am a mandated reporter when working with clients if I discover information that leads me to believe a child is endangered. It frustrates me to see what often amounts to child abuse at WDW and be unable to do anything about it. I'd dearly LOVE to be WDW CPS.

Oh and I know you'd be great at it. I've thankfully been spared the ugly sight of such abuse so far, but now that I've moved to Attractions I'm sure I'll see it more often.

[font="Palatino Linotype"]no, you go back to the rental spot and tell them someone took your stroller or wheelchair...it happened to us when my son was in a wheelchair after leg surgery...we came out of star tours and the chair was gone...a cm offered to go get another one only to find out we had to go get it ourselves...but we didn't have to pay anything extra...but it did make me wonder who took ours and why...[/font]
