A fellow cast member showed me this site.. I got a kick out of some of them, but it's kinda mean actually. Oh well, I have a sadistic humor, haha. If you are into ugly.co or any of those kinda sites you will like it. http://www.geocities.com/disneyfancategories

August 5th I upgraded my pass (please, no name calling) and the woman standing next to me had had her husband's pass taken away. Why? Because she gave it to her friend to use. She claimed she didn't know they weren't transferable DESPITE the pass saying that it's not and it had his photo and name on it. Helloooooooooooo. I wanted to say c'mon lady who are you kidding? The CM who helped her was quite good, keeping calm and not laughing at her - although you knew she probably wanted to smack the lady. I'm not sure what the outcome was because I left. One bad apple spoils the whole bunch. :(

Heehee! I thought it was pretty funny. But, the only thing needed is more pictures! I guess I have a pretty BAD sense of humour. :lol:

That was alright. Kinda got a kick out of it. It was kind of mean though. I'm not too bothered by AP's, YET. I've only been here 4 months so I'm not sure how to spot them yet, or what their distinguishing characteristics are. How can you tell if they're an AP? Actually I'm also an AP. Then I got hired but my pass is still good... does that make me evil?

Try pin trading. You'll know they're APers when they take out their book of pins and lift up the collar of your shift without asking to get the Haunted Mansion Holiday Pin beneath it. :shock: God it gets worst and worst every time I do pin trading. The other day I got 6 haunted mansion holiday pins on my lanyard (which someone else wore) and within 5 minutes a guest wanted to trade for all of them.

because of that site we all just got a little bit dumber, i pity our already dumb guests.

as for the lanyardsi'm glad we don't have to wear them at train central anymore, there was one conductor who would make people trade two for one, as if they were his own pins, and would only trade for ones he really liked. it was funny.

Another Dennis story about pin trading. Dennis got ahold of all the lanyards for CC attractions and constructed a lanyard no one would ever want to trade with him for. I believe he has the exact same pins. He also refuses to wear the lanyard during pryo. Too dangerous, too much going on. Man I miss working parades.

I thought that was pretty funny, but some of those didn't look like your usual weird AP that has no life outside of work and disneyland. Plus, some of those don't even show the park in the background, so how do you know they aren't Knotts AP's? I know I know, I'm a jerk, I find stuff like that funny.

i think it's about time that we put into effect, operation PIN TRADE, we all need to go buy one super nice pin each and go up to Dennis, and trade him! That'll teach him, STDuck (sorry had to capitalize those letters all in a row like that) start rounding people up who have suffered his scavenger hunts, and i'll find some people who just up and hate pin trading, and we'll have at it.

Possibly one of the DUMBEST sites I've ever mistreated myself to! Someone has waaay too much time & very few brains. :evil: You had a right to post though~

But what if I wanna keep the pin I bought? And the last time I worked with Dennis on Parades he didn't wear it. (He was going on the technicallity that he didn't have to wear it DURING the Parade). Yes but I don't get to play in the park for awhile, they have me working all of my available play days. Oh well. (And why would I throw a fit about you capatalizing the T and the D?)

:sighs: You would think if you went to that extreme to make up things about others, you would have better creativity. Oh well, I have just wasted valuable scanning posts time looking at that. :?

I almost clicked that site agian, thanks agian for killing my brain cells, were all those pictures even taken in the DLR? If you're going to call it Fan catagories, then maybe you should give more than just a description of the catagory, and actually catagorize them, BTW, none of those picture, or at least not alot of them, were of particularly creepy guests. Do it right next time, and i'll hail you.

At Laughingplace they are talking about AP's paying alot of money to be a CM for the day. :roll: That would be the day! I never really had problems with APs but from what I heard, this would be the greatest pay back in the world. If they think they know everything about my attraction and how it works, they will be in for a big surprise. Better yet, lets put them at F! for a few days. :twisted: What you think about it?

I always thought that pulling Fantasmic GC one night and letting the show try and run itself would be more entertaining....

HOSTESS - I too have an annual pass. I make the distinction that I am NOT an AP, as I used to be a cast member (parades, characters, attractions, store ops, Fantasmic! performer and lead), and I don't act like an AP. It's funny how people will try to cheat. My wife and I stood in line behind a family, and the gate CM asked this woman's son how old he was, "Four" the little tyke replied. The woman kept trying to get him in for free, claiming he was three! So what? That's still the youth price - 3-11! Woman couldn't fathom that, and apparently didn't read the fine print. Wasted WAY too much of our time waiting for her to wise up.

AP guests can drive other guests crazy too (and I purchase an AP but only because it works out economically, we usually only make it down to WDW once a year.)

I can spot them a mile away. But I bet if you guys saw me you wouldn't know we were an AP family LOL. That's cause we're very pro-cm, don't try to get around the rules (that stuff drives me NUTS) and still believe that above all else, WDW is for children...

What would you say is the biggest beef you have with AP's?

i never realized it before, but that's what really makes me mad about not just APs but guests in general. The way i see it, in CA at least, we've passed the state rquired training regiment, so therefore we're right.

I agree with Scream162 and GMC. I think I said this on another post, there isn't a Lead or Trainer shadowing me therefore I passed my PA so I know what I am doing

I hear that! That's frustrating no matter what job you have! It's kind of like how much I hate it when my sisters, neither of whom have children, tell me how to parent my 8 year old LOL.

As if they have a clue...

Well I'm glad to know that I don't do the most annoying thing that most AP's do! Like I said, if you met me you'd never know I had one.

It finally happened ladies and gentlemen, the first conflict with an AP. So I'm at the Matterhorn A-side group (ya, group) and a wheelchair comes up to the "ex-"wheelchair gate. I inform them in a nice manner that you have to wait through the line on the other side. They mumble something and ask for my name. I thought they were going to turnsile to do whatever because our GAC and stupid things like that changed after the rehab. I was wrong!
I get my break and my lead comes to talk to me. She said this wheelchair guest comes to complain about me being mean, yelling at them, blah blah blah... and "I'm an AP." The moron wants to complain so my lead gives her a piece of paper to write down the complaint and as my lead said "Shread". It was a great laugh though but how dare someone put words in my mouth!

Yeah. Walk a mile (or eight) in our shoes.

I'll be honest. When I first got my Annual Pass, I was a grade a, gold plated jerk! Working at Knott's changed that VERY quickly. It's something else when the shoe's on the other foot. And since then, in all my years as a AP holder at DL, then a Season Pass holder at Busch Gardens Williamsburg (which I managed to make redundant for both seasons,) it's a lesson that I still hold to heart.
