You know you work at Disneyland when...

[Placid_reverie]

Hey guys, i thought it would be kind of funny to compile one of those "You know... when..." lists. So i'll start off and you guys can add on and keep the list growing...

YOU KNOW YOU WORK AT DISNEYLAND WHEN...

- you can sing along to the fireworks word for word.
- you cringe when you see/hear those "50th anniversary" commercials (a constant reminder of the massive amounts of "stupid guests" you'll encounter come may)
- you come to the park to play and think to yourself... "holy crap... people actually PAY to come here?! ...why?"
- you come to the park to play and are relieved at the fact that you dont have to walk around with a fake smile.
- you go to other theme parks and notice things they do wrong.
- you can live off a vending machine food diet because you're so accustomed to it.
- you have a bunch of old cast member reference guides and dont know what to do with them (ooh... pretty yellow paper... sometimes white...)
- you always come home from work with a new pen in your pocket (yeah... you... forgot to put it back at work...riiiiiight....)
- you cant stop pointing with two fingers, even outside of disneyland.

...okay... now your turn! :-D
