When this happened, I knew I had to put it here. We sell 2 speeds of film in my store (200 and 400). This girl comes in (High school sr maybe) and the short conversation went like this:

Guest: I need film
Me: What kind?
Guest: For my camera
Me: (The "you didn't just say that to me at 11:30 pm" look)
Guest: "Oh sorry, I'm a little tired, nevermind."

I laughed about it when she left.

Why must my child sit on the inside of Dumbo? I want to take photos!!

Well as you know Dumbo rotates around and creates a centrifugal force. This force will push you and your child to the outside of the Dumbo, where the LARGE OPENING in his side is located. While flying high in the sky at a total altitude of 35 fe-

*guest chimes in: they want you to fall out first*

I respond: Yes thats right (and I walk away).

I just had this one the other day in Owl Photo (Splash Mountain Photo Shop)

Me: Hi, what is the number of your picture?

Guest: I don't know...

Me: Okay (Turn to off CM and get a close number so that I can scoll back)

Me: Do you know the who was sitting in front?

Guest: Yes.

Me: Who was it?

Guest: Morgan (name changed, but a still a unisex name given-not that this helps me anyway-they don't have their names plastered on their foreheads!)

Me: Well, what was MORGAN wearing?

Guest: Ohhh...

We finally found the picture after scrolling around for 5 mins. People, how hard is it to remember a little number, especially if you are going to buy the picture? **Note: this does not apply to people who are stuck on the frequent log jams, unless they yell at us for the jams-please, we just sell the photos**

I know I'm new here, but I just had to add this one to the list....

Several years ago, standing at the edge of Rivers of America doing a site survey, we had a great idea while watching people during early entry (it used to be Adventureland up to/including Pirates).

A couple of days later, several WDI personnel came in standing at the edge of the river with large Futaba remote controls for cars during Early Entry. We stood, pointed, played with the remotes, etc. Finally, the park opened, the rope dropped and several people came over to see what we were doing.

Guest: What are you guys working on? Some new E-Ticket plans?
Us: Nope, just reprogramming the ducks.
Guest: [Slight pause] Really? They look so real. How often do you have to reprogram them?
Us: Every winter so they don't fly south.
Guest: That's really cool.

We did this several times before we were finally asked to stop by our manager.

Another Owl Photo moment :shocker:

Today this guest was bugging the heck out of me because it interrupted me every time I tried to answer his own question! And I was going over the prices of the frames with him and he would go "no" like I was arguing with him! Then he wanted to know the price of the last frame and interrupted me before I even told him! At least he bought it. Okay, I think I am down with my rant. Whew.

My friend who is a major in physics says actually if you want be accurate physics-wise...the force is actually called centripedal force and dumbo is actually pushing you around the circle making you feel as if you're being pushed out but ur really not, you just want to keep going straight but dumbo's forcing you to curve
