“Quick elevator ride”. That is a slow moving scenic tower ride. It crawls to the top. NEVER get in a line for an attraction if you have to go to the bathroom. I live in the NYC metro area and have to drive on the Belt Parkway (if you’re from here you know how horrific that is) past JFK every day to and from work.…

What about the people who were there WITH their kids? ;)

Probably a priority to get the people down first.

I did two Disney World internships, so I realize I’m a fucking hypocrite, but I always looked at Sea World and wondered WHY the hell you’d go on this thing. What are you looking at from up there, Disney World? It’s central Florida, people. What is there to see?!?!

Very likely. I’ve been on the Haunted Mansion where kids kept trying to get out of their doombuggy in the attic scene and touch things...or on Tomorrowland Transit Authority where teens were climbing OVER the moving ride vehicles in the dark. Splash Mountain goes down every two seconds because of hats flying off and…

Worked at Epcot doing the WDWCP, so I’ve been stuck on most rides. Being stuck on Small World actually isn’t terrible, because there’s just so much to fucking look at.

Unless they’re going to shit their pants, they hold it? But I’m a teacher (and on a medicine that has dieuretic properties), so 120 minutes? That’s every morning at work for me lol.

If you really think that social norms and the ways in which women were expected to behave are identical when you compare present day to the 1940s, then I am literally speechless.

I’ve had to pick up a guest or two backstage and personally drive them to Celebration Hospital from Epcot before.

You’re right, but there’s always a network of backstage areas, and even those college program CMs are well trained on all 3 lockdown/evacuation plans before they ever set foot in a guest area.

There are multiple evacuation and lockdown plans that are posted EVERYWHERE backstage in the event of an issue. Every Cast Member knows what to do.

I feel for the kids, too. My whole point is just that no one really knows what goes on behind closed doors.

I had a VERY bad morning with my NPD father on Sunday. I’m obviously still healing from a very fucked up childhood, but you should have seen me when a very phony zen coworker told me, “Maybe you should try loving him. Have you guys just tried giving him love? Sometimes, that’s all a person needs.” Granted I don’t…

Yes! I was on a Grand Jury for a month in October, and they are freaking awesome. Well, most of them. I had my favorites.

That’s another thing that bothers me. My father has NPD. Part of me wonders if he’s letting them linger in there as a “That’s what you get for not wanting to see me! Even a JUDGE agrees with me!” line of thinking. Then he can also tell everyone just *has* to go to Isreal for work, you see, even though he is SO…

Child of a parent with NPD here, too. I am RAGING as well. Especially since my father has no money and no criminal record.

That is exactly the case that my extremely abusive and manipulative father would have made, had my mother ever had the balls to divorce him. Just saying.

Speaking from experience working with children, AND as an adult child with a parent with Narcissitic Personality Disorder who is abusive on ALL levels, there are many times that children who are abused are resistant to trust any and all authority figures.

Common Core Math?

THANK YOU. Why is no one mentioning this? My iphone does it. I’m also a teacher, so I have a bit of a hard time typing in textspeak in general, but even if I give “Sure” as a response, my iphone will automatically capitaize that and put a period there, even if I intend it to be just one word without punctuation.
