So the other night I was chatting with a roommate, waiting for our laundry to dry. We were sitting outside the laundry room on the sidewalk. Soon one of those little security carts comes along and parks right in front of us. One guys asks us if we seen a girl dressed all ragged wearing an orange hat. We say no, and ask what's up. It turns out some junkie girl got into Chatham and has been asking for money and or drugs about a week ago. This makes sense because as I was walking home the other day from Publix I noticed some people with flashlights searching in a field near Mickey's Retreat. Weird times.
On a totally different note -Last night my roommate and I ate at Le Cellier at Epcot. It was on a whim because we just wanted a nice sit-down restaurant after doing really nothing all day long. Actually we wanted San Angel Inn at Mexico, but it was all booked. Most things were booked(note to self: make reservations at least 2 days in advance), and we ended up in Canada.
I ordered the 7oz Filet Mignon, with the bbq sauce and mashed potatoes. I also got a Ice Wine Martini- which was good, if a little too sweet. My roommate ordered the Le Cellier Mushroon Filet Mignon atop a small layer of risotto. To accompany it, my roommate also got a glass of Jackson-Triggs Merlot, Okanagan 03'. If it sounds like I have the menu with me, I do. The food was really delicious, and everything went well together. But it's not like we know anything about cuts of meat. For dessert I got the creme brulee- so so good.
One thing to note is the bread you get as an appetizer. Besides the usual bread, you get fresh pretzel bread. It was straight out of the oven, and it was the best pretzel anything I've ever had...better than the sweet cream cheese pretzel at MK, maybe.
Oh and today was the first day I experienced a fellow co-worker really upset. He was angry because after the rain, no one assigned to work in the same area as he was in, helped out with wiping off the benches, pushing standing water etc...He was going off on how we was alone doing all the work for an hour, with no one else in sight.
Here's a little story of exaggeration. The other day I'm doing restrooms and I'm almost done with my shift. I just had one more restroom to check and then I was out of there. So as I'm walking to said restroom, a co-worker, who's doing Sweep looks a little upset and asks me if I was doing Front Set restrooms, I replied yes. So he tells me that the guest restroom near the ABC Theatre is all messed up and I should check it. I replied that I was on the way there. So I go there, and the closer who is about to take over for me sees me, and doesn't even acknowledge me, just giving me the cold shoulder. So I walk into the closet with all the supplies and see two other co-workers inside talking. One asks me if I was doing Front Set, and I said yes, and then he tells me the closer is all mad because I wasn't doing my job. So I get a little upset because I know I was in that same restroom not even too long ago. So I go in and take a look, prepared to face the after effects of people tornadoes. There's hardly any mess! Granted it was a little messy, but for the love of Goofy, I've seen much much worse. So I walk back to the closet and tell the two co-workers that it doesn't even look bad, and that that one closer was so exaggerating. The guy tells me not to worry about it and just forget it because it's not worth getting upset about. I'm like "whatever, I don't care". I clean as much as I can and leave, a little miffed about the whole non-ordeal. It's like one minute someone is all nice to you, but then the next they'll bite your head off if they could.
Long story short- people get upset at the stupidest things and drama is just a part of daily life- at home and at work. If you do your job correctly, and you know you do, then more power to you. Don't let other co-workers get to you. Also people need to get over themselves.
Le cellier (SP?) is awesome. My parents were just there on last Tuesday night..
Sorry to hear your getting dumbed on a little.. Chin up! You choose a very hard job when you could have gone easier. Your doing great!

), and whatever is left is yours. Disney has there own bank for cast members called Vista which you can use to automatically send your money to an account or you can pick up your check at your work location's pay area (out of all of this I forgot what it is called 
).
I'm sure it's not as bad as the *shudder* cheerleaders. Cast members get a preview of it all tomorrow- but i'm working. I think there's games and other sports stuff we can do before all the guests.
