Aloha
How about a story or two from WDW.....

This particular stupid guest trick is a real pet peeve of mine:
After telling a guest where the closest bathroom is to where they are
standing I get a stupid look and the question "Is that the closest?"
To which I answer "yes" and try really hard not to give them a stupid
look in return. One day I'm going to answer "No, that's not the
closest bathroom. It's actually all the way on the other side of the
park. And if you really want me to be honest, it's not even open."
One day.

I use this line a lot when I'm working as greeter at the Frontierland RR Station:

"Where's the restroom?"

"Under the bridge and behind that tree, sir."

"Huh? Behind the tree?!?"

"In the building behind the tree, sir. This is Frontierland, not Adventureland!"

Some guests don't like to take the long hike to the bathrooms. Over the summer there was a guest who decided that his bathroom was at the base of the Frontierland RR, around the exit to Splash. When approached and asked why he did what he did he responded with "I didn't want to lose my spot in line". The man had left his two grandchildren in line while he relieved himself just outside the line.

I've seen parents holding their kids up to the trash cans in line so they didn't have to get out of line or just let their kids pee on the wall. :shock:

We had a kid pee off the Astro orbiter one day and actually got guest wet....

When people ask my where the restrooms are now I usually tell them that there is only one restroom in the whole park and it's down on Main Street. I also tell them there is around a 2 hour wait. The sad thing is that they usually believe it for a second. It's fun to joke around with guests.

I have peed in a cup while on Pirates...I was just by myself, and nature called collect unexpectily..couldn't hold it, so I peed into one of those collectable drinking cups you buy for like $5.50

:shock:

Pirates was down for technical difficulties and I was located at turnstyles spieling to all guest that we would resume normal operations shortly. One woman kept screaming at me while I was assisting another gentleman.

CM: Just a moment and I'll be with you ma'am.
Guest: WHERE IS THE .........!
CM: *continuing with directions for the gentleman.
Guest: WHERE IS THE BATHROOM?
CM: Well you need to go back to mainstreet and go through the turnstyles, hop on the monorail to the TTC and then switch monorails to get to EPCOT. Then go insided the turnstyles there, Keeping in mind you need a park ticket to enter the park, and the bathrooms are inside to the right.
Guest: OKAY! THANKS!!!!!

CM: *runs after guest to tell her where the bathrooms really are*


Hey it was fun!

I know that this doesn't have to do with WDW but it's a peeing story nonetheless. OK, so I was working on the Esplanade and some guest somehow got backstage and went. :-p He had to explain to me and another CM what he was doing back there, 2 security guards, the security lead, the Custodial Esplanade lead, and our manager! It was pretty funny. :-p
