Attractions Grouper Appreciation Thread

Post by ifoundnemo » Tue Mar 30, 2010 5:32 pm

Groupers have one of the hardest jobs at the WDW resort... don't you love when guests try to tell you how many people can fit in your ride vehicle- or after assigning a group into rows, the decide to completely throw off your system by switching rows- or, when you assign them into rows, the spread out even more by taking up an extra row or two...

Stories? Comments? Groupers, speak up!

I once had a group that almost doubled in size. They told me one number (I believe they said something around 28?), and it ended up being almost 40 people. That was fun. :rolleyes:

It happens all the time. One time, I was grouping at the Astro Orbitor. I had it perfectly grouped 12 rockets. One couple said that they were able to fit into one rocket, so I let them be. It turns out, THEY DIDN"T! So a group came back around and said they were anymore. I went back to the couple and told them they were suppose to go together. They decided on their own without letting me know that they were going to take another rocket. So, I went over there to tell them that they took a rocket that was suppose to meant for another gorup and they had the nerve to tell me, "Cest la vie!" So, let it go and apologized to the other party and get them on the next flight. Some people! :mad:

DON'T YOU KNOW WHO THEY WERE ! ! Pa**holes is my guess at DL.
As a guest, ToT and Test Track seem to be where I see the most SG's not standing where they were told.
