Thank You, Cast Members!

On this Christmas Day I’d like to take a moment to thank all of the Cast Members who are working hard to create magic. It’s not an easy job on a good day, and in these crazy times it’s hard to keep up that smile on their faces.

I’ve heard a lot of complaints about Cast Members lately. People say that they’ve been rude and not as friendly as in the past. My question is, are the same people being rude to those Cast Members? Everyone has a breaking point.

Since the theme parks reopened there has been only one out-and-out rude Cast Member that I’ve encountered. One. Sure, some aren’t as magical as in the past, but many of us have lost some of the twinkle in our eyes. Even with that one woman, I could forgive it. I know that there was probably pain behind her bad attitude.

Everyone is going through something right now. 2020 was such a hard year, and we hoped that 2021 would be better. In many cases that didn’t happen. We’re all stretched past the limit.

When you’re at Walt Disney World or Disneyland, please just be kind. A nice word can go a long way. This isn’t just for the Christmas season, it’s all year long. Even if someone is rude to you, be nice to him or her. It doesn’t cost you anything to be kind, and it could turn someone’s day around.

I hope that the rest of 2021 is wonderful for you. And if you follow this page, thank you as well. We might be small but I think that we’re the best Disney group on the Internet. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
