I have quite a few, but I will only list 2.
I was working in Fantasyland one night, sweeping the ground (like a good custodial castmember)... The fireworks show was just wrapping up. I walked through the castle from the backside to the front looking down Main Street. Just as the last firework was shot I looked up from the ground and all of the sudden I hear the crowd cheering and I had seen a bunch of camera flashes. I felt that everyone was cheering for me like I was a celebrity or something... It kinda scared me for a second as I didn't realize what was going on... Then I just realized they were cheering for firework show... it was such a crazy feeling, it gave me goosebumps. :wave:
My second memory was when I was working the Petes Garage bathroom in Toontown. As custodial castmembers we were told to ALWAYS have our rain gear on us at all times. I hated it, because it was so bulky and it weighted me down along with everything else we were expected to carry. All of the sudden it starts down pouring like I had never seen it rain before. I had the radio on me, and MK custodial base was yelling at me to go to another bathroom because a toilet was backing up and to keep the bathroom under control until maintence came to fix it. The toilets always backed up when it rained hard... so it was no suprise that it was happening.
I was stuck, but I couldn't tell custodial base because I didn't want to get in trouble for not having my rain gear. Toontown does not have access to the utilidors, so my closest escape was the E-Grove entrance to the utilidor (located between fantasyland and tomorrowland). E-Grove really isn't that far, and I decided I could make a run for it. At this time I would like to remind you that custodial cast members costumes are primarily white. That day, I was wearing dark boxer briefs. So by the time I make it down to the utilidor I'm soaked to the bone and everyone in costuming had a great laugh at this poor guys expense. :hammer:
