DCP - Day 49 - October 1, 2012
After working from 4:30 -1:00 AM last night, I woke up this morning at 6:00 to head with Erika to Epcot for its 30th birthday. We were among the first fifty people or so there and they weren’t letting us in past security yet. At about seven, they let us through security and told us to line up at the turnstiles. We wanted there until about 8:30 when they finally opened the gates.
And then came the mad dash to Mouse Gear for limited edition merchandise. We waited in line another hour and a half just to get inside the store. The lines were crazy long and went all the way to World Showcase. But I got the merch that I wanted!
But it didn’t come easy.
WE left after we purchased our merch and went back to the
apartment. When we got home, I noticed
my limited edition pin wasn’t in the bag.
I was not happy. So we trucked it
back to Epcot and back to Mouse Gear where the line was still backed up all the
way to World Showcase. I talked to the
manager of the store and thankfully they still had the pin I wanted.
I had an interesting conversation with a Cast Member who
shall remain nameless about this incident while I was in the process of trying
to get my pin. I explained to him what
happened and he told me it was the guest’s responsibility to make sure all the
merchandise is in the bag after a transaction, not the Cast Members. It was then I informed him I was a
merchandise Cast Member.
After we got back from Epcot the second time, Erika and I napped until like four, when we made our way to Hollywood Studios. We rode Tower of Terror four times and Erika finally got to ride Toy Story Mania. It was so much fun! Today was just awesome.
