Same here, it will takes security a long time to show up anywhere after a call.

They are never around when you need them, but always around when you don't need them!!

The only time I have had a quick response was on Grad Nights when money needed to be moved across the land. Otherwise it is hit and miss.

I've never had much luck getting Security to respond. Waited 75 minutes once on a bomb threat!

OTOH, Orange County Sheriff is *very* prompt, and they make problems go very far away.

As I heard another CM put it, Disney Security CMs are just custodians with gold badges instead of brooms.

Security gets decent response times for my ride. Theyre usually out there in about 5 minutes.

hey disney CMs... let's give our security team a little more credit... they really are pretty awesome...

the 20 minutes is probably an exaggeration... or perhaps you called during pyro or something...

anyway, our security team doesn't exactly fall in to the "rent-a-cop" category... at least not all security CMs
