The Test

Post by ziggyfmt » Sun Jan 21, 2007 7:46 pm

While working as a CP at Fantasmic!/TOTS/Parade at the Disney-MGM Studios, some fellow cast members and I came to the conclusion to solve just about every problem that we ever have in the parks, or any park for that matter. All guests need to take a mandatory test, and then if they pass, only then can they buy their tickets and enjoy the parks. On this test would be questions not only about the parks themselves, such as the seemingly simple question of "What is Disney World?", but also some very common sense type questions, such as "You are exiting the theater just after enjoying Fantasmic! The metal benches that the crowd was just sitting on are still wet due to rain and you are carrying your 6-month-old child. The crowd is moving too slow for your taste, but you see that there are some people deciding to use the benches as stairs. Which path do you take?". If people fail, there is a mandatory class for each section of the test (parks or common sense).

Now with that said, I thought it would be a great idea to have everyone come up with the questions for this test! So...have at it! :twisted:


"Excuse me, do you work here?" No...I'm just making a fashion statement with this lovely shirt and nametag for the fun of it!:duh:

When exiting Magic Kingdom with your stroller at park closing, do you:

a) drive your stroller into the ankles of the guests in front of you (to make them move faster)

b) walk as fast as the people are walking, without hitting anyone.

c) stop on the sidewalk of Main Street, USA to look in the windows of the shops.

d) swerve your stroller back and forth to keep other guests from getting in front of you

I have a question... is it permissable to run over the folks who stop suddenly on Main Street to look in the windows and shops with my stroller? Then I'm just doing a service by taking out the ankles of SGs.
