Stupid Guest Tricks

Do you ever stop to think how often you're photographed or end up in someone's family album/scrapbook/desktop wallpaper?

Nope! How often? :cat1:

I have taken a few photos of Cast Members while enjoying the parks. Here are a few examples.

I was eating in the Plaza one afternoon when I noticed a group of PhotoPass photographers waiting for the parade to finish. I stepped outside and said that since they had taken my picture plenty of times, it was my turn to take theirs. They were happy to pose for me.



This little gang of CMs were wishing everyone a good night as guests were leaving MK.




This PhotoPass photographer was checking out the Snow White topiary while waiting for the next guest to arrive. I told her that before she could take my picture, I wanted to take hers.



Every CM that I've taken a picture of seemed happy to allow me to do so. I like to get pictures of them because they are what make Disney World the magical place that it is. They are no less important to me enjoying my trip than the attractions.

Because of my role, I'm sure I've wound up in other people's pictures. I think it's pretty cool

Yes! I had this exact thought tonight for the first time as I was MSEP Escort and passed hundreds of video cameras and cameras.

No way, you got escort! That's cool!

I loved picking up PAC shifts, and what got me thinking was during Nightastic, watching the crowd and seeing all the photos being taken as we were watching the crowd and encouraging everyone to stay to the right. (I have found a half a second of me on a youtube video from the MSEP passholder preview. I know... I'm a dork.)

Do any of you CMs mind if we post a picture of you here? I've taken pictures of CMs singing Happy Birthday to me, providing magical moments, and just having fun doing what they do best - keeping guests happy.

I won't post any pictures of CMs I know personally (you know who you are).
I know a lot of you want to remain anonymous about your posting in this forum, but these would be pictures of CMs working at WDW.

Good idea? Bad idea?

Yeah, I was surprised. I was originally assigned east bridge or something lousy, and the guy who had escort made a joke about the coordinator so he swapped us around.

Not photos for me but I tend to hear my voice quite a bit in Youtube videos, well not that often but every once in a while. Someone will send me a link to a video being like, I think I here you talking over the mic in this guy's video (and occasionally I'll be in the shot). It's a little odd hearing yourself but oh well haha.

East bridge was fine with me. Beware of popcorn corner!
