tip for cm's

[spoon full of sugar]

I've seen threads were people ask what they can do to make cm's days a little easier, so. We went to Epcot one night to catch the fireworks, as my husband was pulling up to the area where the cms were, he turned off his headlights so he wouldn't blind them. As we were getting out of the car, a cm came up to us and thanked dh for turning off the headlights. He said in all the years he had worked there no one had ever thought to do that!!! The poor people must be going blind from the hundreds of headlights shined in their faces ever night. Please remember to turn off your lights as your driving up to people in the parking lots,as long as it is safe to do so of course.

Also, please pull in where they tell you to pull in. Lately, I've seen so many cars refuse to follow the CMs directions. They don't want to walk from the end of the row, so they just pull in where ever they want. Or, they don't want somebody next to them, so they leave a space. That happened the other day over at MGM. The CM was waving this guy in a truck to a space. The guy ignored the CM and left an open space. I just couldn't help myself. I was right behind the guy, so I pulled into the open space. The look he gave me should have killed me on the spot. Too bad.

Like the big dork didn't think someone would park there.

Good for you, Feralpeg!

I've seen CM's go over to cars that parked where they weren't supposed to and they were made to move. Go CM's.

Oh my goodness...what an adorable picture of your boys. I have two boys also but they are 8 and 9 and won't do those great brotherly hug pictures much anymore. That is one to cherish!

SOmetimes (not at Disney) you cannot pull into the space the lot guide tells you to pull into, at least without hitting the car that is just beyond. That is because they guide the cars the wrong way, filling the last space in the row first. It takes too many words to explain their error but you can,as you skip a space and then get out of your car, tell the lot guide simply, "I could not hit that space without hitting that car".

I want to suggest that Disney fill the first half of each row only early in the day and go back and fill the last half of each row hours later. I'm sure this will make a lot of people happier. You know, the earlier you arrive... The disadvantage is that it would be harder for Guest RElations to help someone who forgot where he parked, by asking the guest what time he arrived which does roughly determine where he parked.

Please remember.

That's asking a bit much. How about signs? I often don't remember to turn on my lights when leaving in the evening, since the lots are so well lighted. And, let's allow cribsheets in school.
