You know you've had a LONG day when....

^true... but it's worth a shot. I can't count the number of times they've called me to see if I wanted a shift at a location I HATE and one that I've told them many many times that I would NOT take any shifts at. They would call, I'd say no I don't want to ever work that location again, but if you have something open up anywhere else you can let me know... they'd call half an hour later wanting to know if I wanted to work that same location for a different day. :throw:

At least they aren't as sneeky as the managers that I've delt with before. They would call me back 30 mins later for a shift at a diffrent location, and then after I've been working there for an hour or so they would then pull me to the location that I hate to work at.

I so know what you mean Wobbo, I work at arbys where i live, but for disney i work for room reseverations, i have done this so many times at disney "Thank your for choosing Arby's, would like to try a market fresh sandwich today?.......oops wrong job." The guest just starts laughing at me, but they understand.
Also while i am at arbys on drive thru, i state "thank you for calling disneyland room resort room reservations, this is .......oops thank you for choosing arbys order when your ready." Everyone i work with just laughs at me.

Im like sorry not enough sleep between jobs.

When i help my mom clean up the kitchen after dinner i'll say "behind" when i walk behind her carrying something that could be spilled or a kinfe or something like that. and sometimes i'll knock on the door to the bathroom at work, just incase there is someone on the otherside. sheesh, i need a vacation!

They asked me to knock on bathroom doors, becaus of the way I tend to blow through them.

Ways you know you're tired:

It's Grad Nite, and you're walking around Star Traders mumbling "Please return your cast member to their full upright position when you're finished using them."

Ways you know your fellow CMs are tired:

They all think this is the funniest thing they've heard in days.

After a very long day, a child with long blonde hair exited off my ride.

"Have a fun day, princess!" I said to the tyke.

The child turned around and faced me, and aghast! It was a boy. He sneered at me and growled, "I'm not a PRINCESS..." and stalked off with his little sister laughing hysterically behind him..

I do all the aforementioned "long-day" antics, but that one probably traumatized that kid for life.

Hey! BTW this is my first post. This site kicks ass! :)

You know you've had a long day when you're sweeping in your area, then you "zone out" and wonder into (not another area but,) another land. :mrgreen:

That's happened to me more times than I'd like to admit.

once after a long day at jungle I found myself at a green light with the person in front of me not moving and I yelled "move it up skip!""

Screwing up on the phone is a part of life. Try being a roadie (like me!), and see how much mirth you cause amongst your friends when you're home and dial "9" to get an outside phone line FROM YOUR OWN HOUSE! Damn jet lag. :x
