Here is a tough one.
Guests (paying customers who are always right) come up because they are upset with other Guests (paying customers who are always right). The person making the issue wants a cast member to go up and talk to the other people about it.
The dilemma is that you have one set of guests who are bothered and one set who is probably oblivious that they did something to offend someone else. The problem as a whole is not Disney's as you have to realize people form many walks of life visit Disney and in their home the offensive action is perfectly acceptable.
The dilemma.
Rule #1 is dont cause a conflict as a cast member.
If the cast member adresses the offending guests it is quite highly likely they will become upset. Now the cast member has one group of guests that are marginally better depending on the course of action the cast member was expected to take and another set of guests that are ticked off. More specifically, addressing the offending guests could ultimatley result in the cast members loss of a postion with the company depending on how upset the folks get.
Given this scenario, I think you can see why cast members don't always address every complaint people have personally. We can't afford to lose our jobs over something frivilous. These situations that wouldnt be a problem if more people practiced the "turn the other cheek" attitude.
