I worked games today. One little girl was very upset that she hadn't won several games she'd tried and simply did NOT want to play another game. There were 2 tickets left and her mom was trying to get her to play *something*. I finally got mom's attention and motioned her to come back over to my game. I told the little girl that I'd just gotten a call from Mickey and he's seen that she had animals on her dress and that she was sad. He didn't want anyone to be sad at WDW, so he asked me to let her play for our medium prize (a sabre-tooth tiger) since she likes animals so much to wear them on her clothes. After a little encouragement from mom and I, she agreed, so they played (and mom kept "missing") and she won. Her face was priceless and reminded me of the reason I keep coming to work even when I'm exhausted and would much rather call in. Her MOM'S face reminded me why I keep coming in.
You know, the guests tell us all the time that we are the reason they come back, but I think it's important to know that the guests are what makes OUR days seem like a holiday rather than a job most of the time.
It's hard to believe, but 3 weeks from today is my CP "graduation" event, and 4 weeks from Friday is my last day at Dinoland. I can't believe how fast this has all gone by. I keep trying to remember "Carpe Diem" and I'm trying not to wish the days away waiting for a call about a PI, but it's hard!
