No joke. When I work over in NOS at the FM I was assigned the wonderdul job of busser. Anywho, the day was going pretty good until I went into the bus room and came dang close to stepping on a big fatty load some kid left in there on the floor. Gosh it wreaked. And to boot the kid left his little drawers behind as proof that it was indeed a little kid. So i set my bustub down (back in the day when we'd generally carry 60- 80 lbs tubs of dishes and discarded food, and this had to weigh a good 70 lbs atleast). I turn around just in time to see the busroom door fling open and my female lead walk in, step right on the peice and slide into the wall near the sink. Totally comical! I was rollin forever.
She didn't take much kindness to me laughing and made me clean up the mess using my hands (wearing multiple gloves and putting the piece in a bustub). Dang, prolly took a good hour to clean it up since it smeared and got into the cracks in the tile and grout (sp?). and to dispose of this hazmat... she told me to take it down to the compactor and compact it.... Stupid guests suck! lol Any other stories like this?

Best I can do is the story of the Amazing Exploding Diaper. Sad part is, I really can't claim it to be the fault of any amazing stupidity, just very bad timing.Any other stories like this?
A typical day at the Toontown Railroad Station. Spending my time between trains removing strollers from the entrance and exits, asking guests to fold their strollers rather than push them through the turnstile, pointing out to guests who had jammed their stroller in the turnstile the reason I had just asked them to fold it, calling alpha units for guests hit in the head when guests picked up their strollers and tossed them over the turnstile... the usual.
One guest arrives pushing a stroller. Apparently, they had changed the kid recently, as there was a fully loaded diaper stored on the lower deck. (Please don't ask me why they didn't drop it in one of the thousands of trash cans in the park. Maybe they meant to have it bronzed for a grandparent.)
As they made the turn in the queue, this diaper fell out ... only to be immediately stepped on by a very large guest (who was immediately glad he had worn his hiking boots to the park).
Clearly, he stepped on that loaded diaper dead center, as the resultant explosion covered a nearly circular area about eight feet in diameter -- quite sufficient to slime the entire width of the attraction entrance.
We didn't even bother to ask management to let us go 101 to clean up. We knew who was on duty that day, and they were known for trying to dispatch trains during fireworks. No way we were going to be allowed to close for a cleanup.
Thank heavens for Custodial and their prompt response! Without their quick mop work, it would have been a very stinky day indeed.

On Subs one fine day, I pulled into the dock, and as my guests were unloading, I climb down from the sail and see a lemonade glass filled with urine! It was sitting on the thin runway between the aisles. There was no way of knowing who left it - so I couldn't yell at anyone; but there was no friggin' way I was gonna touch it!
I told the people up on the dock to call custodial (unless they wanted to come in and retrieve it), and took a trip empty - just me and a cup o' piss...
(I had to take a trip empty until custodial could arrive, 'cause the subs behind me couldn't really go around me)
I was worried the cup would spill during the trip, but thankfully it didn't. That'd smell up the boat for a long while... :roll:

So.. it's a slow night on the east trams (the ones that leave from the harbor side of the park) and we're all just standing around twidling our trumbs. I was standing by the lead, and I overhear a call from a tram on it's way towards the parkside esplanade that she has a VERY drunk guest on board. Unfortunately, the tram pulled in before security had a chance to "87."
As they pull in, it's completely obvious that the girl and her boyfriend are drunk, moreso the girl, and they're on their way to the House of Blues, canteen in hand. The only other group on the tram is a group of maybe 5 or 6 who come up to me and explain to me that there is a code U on the tram. (which led me to believe they where either cast members themselves or APs.)
The girl, who was easily 23 or 24, was so drunk that when she needed to pee, she dropped trou on the way in and peed on the tram. Then, she had the audacity to go over to me, of all people, and ask where the House of Blues was. We had to turn the tram off and park it off to the side until custodial made their way over to clean it up.
They made it to HoB before security could stop them.
But wait kids.. the story isn't done yet. I get reports later on that night, as I'm going home, that they had managed to get on the wrong tram on their way back to the car. Supposedly she was repeatedly standing up.. and mooning people in the passing trams. :shock: Eventually security pulled them off the tram and had to escort them back to their car and out of the parking lot.
At least we had something to talk/laugh about for the rest of the very slow night.

Roasted Poo
One fine summer day I was working on the monorail. It wasn't Code 90 yet (code 90 meaning the weather was too warm to load the nose or tailcones of the monorail) but it was quite warm and of course the air in the nose was not working well at all. So I was about to jump in the train to take the trip to the old Hotel station and I noticed I had a party of five waiting to ride with me. With out the air working and a full load of guests up in front with me it was about to be a stuffy, warm ride. After I load the party into the cone and take my seat I notice one of the children in the family was handicap (had one of those fun little helmets, diapers and the works.) Well we take off on our 3 minutes jaunt to the Hotel and as I am exiting the park I heard a loud wet farting noise and the mother say, "oh no not now." She then looks at me and says "I am so sorry but he has a horrible stomach ache and we were just trying to get him back to our hotel." I just smile but then the stench hit me. The poor kid just made a huge load in his diapers! The problem then arises that it is a sauna in the nose cone with all the people and the poor air conditioning/ventilation. Lets just say that was the LONGEST trip to the hotel I have ever made (while holding my breathe and trying to look happy!) :shock:

yeah atleast you didn't have happen to you what always happened to me with monorail blue. It would always buck and give an e-stop at the worst places for who knows what reason. Then maintenance would tell me to go ahead and power down then back up into all sorts of different modes just so they wouldn't have to come out! lol..... good times up on the monorail!
