Here's a few of my favorite radio calls that I've responded to.

CM: Can you assist a guest with a broken leg at the Playground?
Me: Broken leg? Do they need an alpha?
CM: Stand by ...
CM: No alpha needed, it is a broken prosthetic leg.


CM: Please be advised there is a large bird standing on the bushes in one of the bone yards.
Me: Is said bird in danger of being run over?
CM: No
Me: Is the bird affecting your ability to do your job?
CM: No
Me: (thinking ... then why are you calling me about it?) Um ... 10-4. Thanks for advising? We're going to assume that the bird, being a wild animal, is allowed to be standing on the bushes, outdoors.


CM: Holy crap. A sweeper truck just ran over a squirrel.
CM2: Aww, poor squirrel.
CM3: Hhsrat, are we going to have a funeral for it?
Me: Do I look like a minister? Ok, fine, I'll do the best I can. Dearly beloved ...

Thanks I needed the laugh tonight.
Worked at a school with a teacher who had to use a mic so her students could hear her due to throat problems. When she first started using it she would forget to turn it of when going to the restroom and it would broadcast all over the school intercom system. Quite interesting.

Yup, your teacher is human and has to pee from time to time.

Probably the funniest call I've heard was from someone that had just gotten back from vacation and was holding for an animal that he'd never seen before.

"I'm holding in Ituri forest for some type of bird. I can't tell you exactly what it is, I've never seen it before. It looks kinda like a duck"

Another funny call was when we had a hat fall on the ridepath, and several people called it in. By about the 3rd or 4th call, the manager on duty responded with "12 bye, yes, I'm aware of the hat. Do you have anything new for me?"
Or yesterday a croc was able to get a buzzard... one driver called it in. About three minutes later, another driver did the same, K-12 (the manager) asked if it was the same vulture. It was not, as this second driver actually watched it happen. Minutes later, another driver called for K-12, to which he responded "Twelve by, 'nuther buzzard?"


My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?

Disney needs to hire smarter buzzards.

Do they hire directly into management?
