Soar-I don't think this should be in Peeves, I think you've had a sign... :) And if they cannot read, well then. As for her using the language, I would have put her in the deepest darkest worst spot of Row 3.

C-My favorite is when you ask them which attendant, and they mention a name that has never worked there before.

Or, and this is more common, can't remember the person's name. (And half the time, when this is the case, they get the gender wrong, which usually means they didn't even go through main entrance, but instead ducked under the breakaway ropes.)

^ Exactly at the Pooh ride at DL the entire queue is wheelchair excessable meaning....if you have a wheelchair you get to wait in line! You wouldn't believe the number of people who come to the exit and argue with the unload cast member. (See I'm from Chicago Thread) They say that the greeter sent them to the exit (you can load through the exit IFF you have a GAC, a cane, crutches or any other visable injury/disability that isn't a wheelchair). You ask them who the greeter is and they can't remember so you call the greeter to confirm that they are telling the truth or that they are just lazy. Then you tell them the greeter didn't send them and they get mad at you cause you accuse them of lying.

I usually reply, that in accordance with the park making sure that everything is ADA accessible, your chair can fit in line. Enjoy yourself.

Here are my pet peeves.

Stupid pin traders who give us the crappy, cheap ass TEN CENT Sedesma (Spain) pins ALL THE TIME and get a $6.00+ pin from us.

Stupid pin traders who see a pin on my KID LANYARD and then proceed to grab any random kid and try to get the pin from me and then get mad when I refuse to give it to them.

The kid lanyard is a bad idea. Why would anyone want to wear a kid lanyard? I don't get it. You know you'll get a bunch of shit from the adult pin traders. Yelled at, spit on, etc. That's too big of a headache for me.

So the pin trading assholes who horde the pins so they can sell them on Ebay can't get them.

Wizard69, I couldn't agree more. I was assaulted by an angry guest the other day, and my lead simply told me what I did wrong (which was nothing, basically).

Overly defensive people.
