Cast Member Habits

[tobyornottoby]

Just out of curiousity for any alumni, what other Disney Cast Member habits stick with you long after your CP is over such as calling little kids 'prince' or 'princess'?

The Disney Point. I can't point regular now lol.

I worked Merch during my CP and got a job in retail a few days after returning home. As I was ringing people up, I couldn't help but ask people "So, what did you do today?", halfway expecting them to say, "Went to EPCOT!" or something. And someone came in with a Disney Chase card and at Disney, those cards means that the person gets a discount. Without thinking at my new job, I told them they would get a discount. Then I remembered where I was...whoops.

My roommate almost got a reprimand when we got home for using princess.

Creeped people out. Haha.

After my first program I knocked whenever I pushed through a door. I couldn't help it for a while because it had just become a reflex to knock. Since I was in merchandise and there were lots of clothes in my location whenever I went shopping with my girlfriend and she stopped to look a a shirt or something I would just stand there sizing the clothes without thinking about it. There were several times I would type my perner into my register back home to sign in instead of the number the store I was working at gave me. As stated before once you Disney point you don't ever stop.

Every now and then, I still tell my co-workers that we're supposed to call them 'guests' and not customers and I did the program in 2007!

I might have Ariel stickers in my purse.... the last time I was there was a year ago. And, I might still give them to little kids that are having a hard time or kids that are great in annoying places like the airport, or when I worked at a jewelry store when little kids would come in I would give them a sticker to distract them.
