Fountain frolic

Post by DLSweeper » Wed Aug 11, 2004 1:25 am

I was sweeping through Roger today, and I came out to see 25+ guests practically dancing in the fountain in Downtown Toontown. I was like: O man! :bang: So I yelled, as sweetly as possible, for them to get out. That's when the parents decide to say something to their kids. I mean, who knows how many other kids peed in it, barfed, and did other stuff! not to mention the dirty coins. :sick1: On top of that, hello???? Can we say safety hazard???? So, they get out.

I go and grab a mop cuz they spread water everywhere! I come back and there are still some people in there that I had told to get out! I'm like: Please get out and put your shoes back on.

What a pain in the toosh! Anyone ever have something like that happen to them?

I understand that Disneyland is a place where you can let your stresses go for a day, and just enjoy yourself, but ignorance should not be put in place of stress.


I am not saying Stupidity should be illegal or anything!! But lets just remove the warning labels from hazardous items and let the problem solve itself.Author Unknown

They didn't yell at me, however, I was pissed enough to have yelled right back at them!

yeah it's hot ... so go to DCA, and get on Grizzly River Rapids for a while ... don't climb in to a fountain that's most likely infested with human wastes!

I once saw a few kids playing in the fountain around King Triton's Carousel in DCA. Not exactly the nicest water fountain to be playing in either.

i would have called security if i'd seen that, lately i've not had the pateince, or the knack for getting people to do what they're supposed to do, like the other day i'm on my way out, and POTS is going through town square, and i see these poeple all standing on the wall on the train station exit, so i ask them to come down, and they don't even acknowlede my presance, so i say it agian, and they lokk at me lik wtf, the due is talking, why is that, granted i'm wearing my backpack, but i'm in my indy costume, with my nametag, visible, telling them to come down, all the way onto the ground, both feet on the ground, so i think i said something about hoping they fall, and try and sue us so i can testify that i told them to get down and they didn't. and i went up and told conductor1 that he had people up there, and he said f it, nothing was going to make them move, and i agreed, he then added that out walls need to be like that /\ at the top, so that they can't be climbed on. ridiculous. so yeah, i'm giving up on guests listening to me, and one of these days reall soon here, i'm going to have one removed for not listening.

Honestly, even you you don't speak english you can understand hand signals, for you to get down, or move, or dance, put your arms up, whatever ... damn, i'm getting pissed thinking about it, i'm going to go tear my car apart and find my indy hat, it's gone missing on me, that's the other thing that's bothersome, i can never find my hat, if i've lost this one i might go over the edge, especially since i had it in my car for two weeks, and i wear it to work once, and i can't find it ... i need to go i think


Gimme some soft serve!

A couple months ago a boy who was about 9 or 10 was going around the Roger Rabbit fountain pulling disease infested coins out. His parents didn't say ANYTHING! I told my lead and she made him put them back. He probably didn't even wash his hands when he was done.

The other day at Knott's I saw a 6 year old kid running NAKED through the water that comes out of the bottom of that water tower by the gates. N-A-K-E-D. All the way NAKED. So, I went to the security guy who had his back to it, and he turned around just in time to see the parents putting a D-I-A-P-E-R on him! Then, kids just kept running through the water. I didnt let my kids go near it for days! It is supposed to be there to cool off, but guests need to use a little common sense.

^ Okay, the novelty has worn off.
