. . . NOT!
Thursday night I had an overtime shift at MGM from 7:45-9:45pm. My regular job ends at 7pm, so I had just a little time to run home, wolf down some food, change and drive to MGM.
Somewhere along the way I dropped my lanyard with my Disney ID.
When I got to MGM (time check: 7:45pm) I noticed it was gone. I was hoping I could still work with out it. I was wrong!
I had my drivers licence, my maingate (Disney employee ticket pass) and a credit card (all with my name on it). The male security guard was a total jerk and wouldn't even look at those things. He just made me call my manager (who is already at home) or anybody else who I thought could help me (time check: 8pm).
I paged her and she called me back (from the super market - I felt like such an ass!) (time check: 8:15pm). The security guard (by now there are 3 security guards all hanging out. I asked if one of them could walk me back to where I was supposed to work, so I could appologize to the guy in charge. "No", they crankily yelled.
My manager tried to call "access control" (to tell them I was a legal employee), but of course that didn't work, b/c she doesn't work for MGM Studios. She called me back with the bad news (time check: 8:30pm).
I was just standing there staring at the security guards with a "what now?" look on my face. The guy had left, so the ladies all of a sudden got a change of heart, and drove me back to where I was supposed to work (time check: 8:5opm). When we pulled up to the area, everybody was already leaving. The shift was just ending!!!
Luckily the guy in charge (who I had been trying to page, with no luck), was standing there. I appologized and asked if I would not have a point on my record card. He's a cool guy, so I don't think I'll be penalized.
As I was walking back to my car, I found my lanyard and ID about 10 yards from my front door.
Hey, at least I got home in time to watch the 2nd half of CSI!

Oh-man! That really really stinks!! Sorry they gave you such a hard time, looks like they would have decided to let you apologize and just escorted you back out if they didn't want to let you stay. Yeesh- Surely they can't hold it against you though! Bummer it was a bad night!
Amber as you would say, "good times", right? ;)
That toally sucks!!! Sorry that happened to you! :0(
Next time, write down their names and their shift, so I can track them down & punch them! ...uh, right. And I'll just complain like the other guests at WDW, that I was harrassed by those mean security guys, who made your life terrible!!! >;0P
