Fisrt off as many of you know Sunday Sept, 2 was one of the HOTTEST
days of the year(ODV and Custodial I feel for you really). I was
running ice cream over at Burr-bank when I see three guests huddled
over a map try to figure out what to do next. I decided to lend a
helping hand. Big mistake! First off they start asking me about shows
so I point out the this was the last day for Blast and they should
not miss it. If I was going to miss the last show at least I would
feel better that I knew they would see it. after telling them about
other shows (they didn't seem to want to know about rides), they ask
about something over at that other park, they want to know where it
is. I tell them over it's over at Disneyland.
They respond, "This isn't...?"
"No. This is Disney's Califonia Adventure. We're two separate parks"
"Then how do we get there?"
"Exit the park. Cross the plaza and you're there."
"You mean it's across the street?"
"No." Using hands to show the parks locations(because the map was not
help to them), "the two parks face each other it's right there. may I
see your tickets please?"
I check their tickets to see if they got the DCA promo deal.
"I'm sorry you bought the our special promotional tickets. It's seem
you ladies are stuck here. Enjoy your ice cream and your day."
I then propmtly went back to work. I had spent ten minutes with these
special guests.

P.S. Disney must be getting desparate to trick guests into DCA

You think THAT's bad... One day I was walking out to the canoe dock, when I was stopped by a frantic guest who needed directions to a particular attraction.

Guest: "Where is the parachute ride?".

Me: "Sorry, ma'am. We don't have a parachute ride."

Guest: "But we're having a family reunion and we're all meeting at the big ride with the parchute drop."

Hmmm... Then it clicked for me. Knott's! I felt awful as I tried to explain to this woman that she had paid admission to get into DLand, when the rest of her family was waiting for her at Knott's Berry Farm. The best I could do for her was suggest she go to City Hall and plead her case, hoping for a refund. I was sure they would do it for her, since it was only about 9:30 in the morning and almost certainly not a scam.

I don't know how they get park landmarks that are so obvious confused. They also get the character's confused. When I was still in merchandise, this woman kept insisting that she'd bought a Bugs Bunny shirt at Disneyland. I kept explaining to her that it was a Warner Bros. character and that they were sold at Magic Mountain, but she got all huffy and told me I was an idiot, that she was sure she'd bought it at Disneyland. I just used to remind myself that they were jerks to the cast members before I was born, and they'll still be jerks to the cast members long after I'm dead. :roll:

My mantra is similar -- Next week, they'll be back at work and I'll still be at Walt Disney World!
