Got this in an email from a friend today, pretty funny, and pretty true!
(Remember when ZacinIndy was on here jumping around screaming "I'm gonna work for Disney!
Dont hear too much from him now do ya?
)
You know you're a Disney Cast Member when....
*All your conversations start with "One time at Disney "
*You never point with one finger
*You've worked with or lived with people from every state and at least 5 other countries
*You knew where all of your friends were every Thursday night
*You know that "my Friday" could easily fall on a Tuesday (and it probably does) - What the hell is a weekend anyway???
*Le Cellier, the Brown Derby, O'Hana, Earl of Sandwich enough said
*You can calmly say "Yes, the wait really is 30 minutes." 50 times within 5 minutes
*You know what alpha-unit means
*You know what a protein spill is, and you can smell Voban from 50 feet away
*You speak fluent 'radio' . 101, 102, 56, 10-4, 10-9
*You know where someone can find any Disney character at any time (or at least CHIP knows)
*You know what CHIP is
*You never wait for more than 10 minutes for any attraction
*Anything heartwarming that happens is now a "Magical Moment"
*When shopping at the grocery store, when the checker thanks you for your business, you now reply "my pleasure"
*You can spot a hidden Mickey anywhere
*You regret not having a FastPass every time you have to wait in a line
*You know it's a costume, not a uniform
*You can spot a Mickey antennae on any car that is a mile away
*You can recite preshows and even entire attraction spiels without even thinking about it
*You have saved a baby elephant from deadly poachers several times
*You use the following terms in normal conversation: ADO, ER, MK, TTC, Poly, the tunnel, DAK, PI, Vista, Commons, Chatham forgetting that no one has a clue what you're talking about
*You start friendly conversations with complete strangers (whether you are at work or not) --- so true!!! Especially if you see that they are wearing birthday or 1st visit buttons
*You know how to perfectly plan your day so that you can see both Illuminations and Wishes
*Anytime you go anywhere you wonder what the story is behind the particular place
*When someone asks you where you are from, you automatically point to where your name tag would be, even if you aren't at work
*"The Man" now becomes "The Mouse"
*You know the colors of all the Monorails
*Any WDW commercial brings a tear to your eyes
*You know that one of the nighttime shows that is impossible to miss is the "Stroller Races down Main Street"
*You have the overwhelming urge to offer to take people's pictures
*"Is there anything else I can assist you with?"
*You know how to smile and politely answer the question "Why is it raining?" (YES, we seriously get that one.)
*When a 40 hour work week is a slow week, and doubles are commonplace
*You think nothing of walking up to lost people and offering directions.
*You can spend a day at WDW without going on any rides and you still have the time of your life
*You have seen the backside of water
*You never need a map for any of the parks
*Guests ask you for directions when you aren't in costume
*You can speak Spanish...or at the least the Spanish part of the monorail. "Por favor mantengase alejado de las puertas."
*You know what "EPCOT" stands for
*It's not unusual to have lunch at a pub in England and have dinner at a sushi bar in Japan while stopping at Norway for a quick dessert.
* You can drive a pargo like a race car
* You love using doors that open "Automagically"
* You know that Ghirerdelli's gives away free chocolate...and you have a hat to get that second piece...
*You know how to answer the question "Do you know what time the 3 o'clock parade is?" (Most common asked question!!!)
*You know where all the dirty references are in each and every Disney movie!! (Yes, there are many of them!!!)
*Not "customers", but "guests"....
*You know what it is like to actually "live" where you work...
*When the mouse becomes the rat....
*When all customer service sucks outside of Disney... and you harshly judge all other customer service establishments
*When you can drink all the way around the world in one day...
*You know where everyone over 21 is on a Tuesday night...
*You wish there were Disney FASTPASS tickets available at the airport, DMV, grocery store and the bank.
*When you go on vacation, you say hello to Housekeepers in the hallways.
*You can imitate the voices of all the characters
*When you hear the term Fab 5 you automatically think of Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Donald, and Pluto
