A little pixie dust from a CM!

[ziggystardust]

While in MGM on our last full day we were waiting in the bookstore next to SciFi for our PS to be called. I noticed a CM's badge, it said his hometown was a few towns over from me so I was going to wait for him to finish his coverstation with some guests and mention it to him.

While waiting I have to say I was sprinkled with the Pixie Dust. This older gentleman named Bob was amazing. He was talking to a little girl and had her pick any cookie she wanted out of the case, then another little boy next to her told his parents that he wanted a cookie (there was no way he knew Bob was giving them away) and before I knew it there was a cookie in the little boys hands. The parents kept asking each other what was going on and why was it free. I just smiled.

Bob also whipped out a family photo of him and his million children/grand children (ok I'm exaggerating but there were a lot) and was telling the story about how they all came down and visited him for thanksgiving for the first time.

I know this might seem trivial, but I thought Bob was the true essence of Disney and a great way for me to end my trip. I never did get to say hi to Bob, as our name was called. But since I didn't get to tell him how great a job he was doing, I figured I'd tell all of you. So thanks for listening.

A great story of why we all like it there so much. And a great picture of your meal there at Sci-Fi. Thanks, Ziggy.

Did Bob have a hearing aid that you noticed? We were in Writer's Stop last week and a very nice older gentleman with a hearing aid waited on us behind the cookie counter. He seemed very kind so I thought of him when I read your post.

Thanks for such a nice story. That's the kind of magic I love to read about.

I'm not sure if he had a hearing aid or not, like I said I never did get the chance to speak with him. We went looking for him on our way out but he had already left for the day.

Thanks for that address, I will definitly write them.
