The Asylum almost made me have a frikkin seizure, it wasnt that i was scared because there were monsters. But I was scared cus i felt like passing out.... Plus, there were like 500 people in that small building, and the stupid ghouls didnt tell anyone the way out, so we were all backed up into a corner.... Then a frikkin fire drill that saved my life.... Deffinately visit the Asylum if you wanna pass out.

You might be a PKI Addict if you go to the Showcase by Kings Island, see a terrible movie that runs long enough for it to turn 10 o'clock and run outside to hug your girlfriend while watching the fireworks (True Story) Love You FOF CREW 06! Leaving you was my Biggest Mistake ever!

LOL Sounds familiar

Those Brakes have always been there..... Unloading Delay

Does Anyone know what they require you to do at the Audition?

Im not sure Parents would stand in line to get their kids wristbands when they know they can just get one at Greeter spots. I know i wouldn't.

Action Theaters requirement is 44", i think she would have to sit in the motionless seats, but she could still watch the show. Im not to sure about Adventure Express, i think their Height Requiremmnt is a Minimum to ride, im not sure i remember a chaperone rule for Express.

I feel sorry for the Ride Ops. I would not have known what to do in a situation like that. I love the footage on http://wcpo.com its like they find the most uneducated 12 year olds to give a statement. Truly amusing.

Any Time

I worked F/O for my Open Shift this morning, and let me tell you i was almost run over by the stampede that followed when the ropes were dropped. A good couple Hundred people came running down to stand in line. Face Off or Flight of Fear, but seein as your prolly gonna be closer to F/O its prolly a good idea to start over there in Action Zone and then head on over to Old Coney.

I have a Simple Solution to this problem or any other problems the park has in the vandalism or Smoking Dept. Tazers! Arm all Associates with Tazers, i bet in a weeks time we wont have any more problems, cus i personally would Taze anyone i saw even looking like they were gonna spit. Word would spread quickly that All Associates carry Tazers and the world would be a better place. Thanks to Me

People are stupid. Someone lit up inside the Flight of Fear Hanger today as well. I wish PKI would enforce this rule, i'm a smoker and I don't have any problem using the smoking areas. I've seen quite a few people walk right by employees and security smoking, and no one said a word to them. I think i was driving at the time when the person lit up inside the Hangar. The problem with us workers is, is we dont know how to POLITELY tell someone that they cant smoke here, but they can somewhere else. People on a whole like to make scenes for absolutely no reason when proven wrong in public. So Our greeter called me to make an announcement into the Hangar about NOT smoking in the "line or any line here at Paramount's King's Island, Thank You"

I like to chew gum, as a teenager myself, But i wouldnt ever spit it out onto the ground when im done chewing a piece. As for spitting? I dont do that at all, its disgusting and vile, We could all do without viewing someone hawk their loogie onto the floor and then having to step over it. Thats what we should have, special areas where people who need to spit can go. ''Spitting Only Area" nevermind smoking, the sound alone of someone about to spit is enough to peel my toe nails off.

I wish we could do that, have an age limit to our ride.... It should be 18, although ive seen some fairly older people spitting as they walk into the line, or as they get off the ride. But its not like i can hand it back to them like when they drop a cup, or tear a map up into pieces. Its not like we have to get on our hands and knees and scrub till you can see your reflection in the floor but we do mop and sweep etc. And yeah, we stay on the clock to clean, part of the job. We need one of those Budweiser real american heroe commercials for our crew ''Mr Gumremovalexpertmopinsweepin baaaaaaaaarchecker"

I can tell you that it 80% of the crew last night stayed to clean gum off of the hangar floor all the way into the saucer. We've been doing some extensive cleaning in the past few days and have now developed a cleaning schedule, i doubt You will see us going anywhere, anytime soon. On the otherhand.... i work at Kings Island and ive just gotten word from myself that CF is closing the park for a Super-Walmart in several years time (THIS SUCKS!!! ). This is very reliable considering i had no idea what Kings Island was last year at this time (please note ^^ this is not true, i was making fun of coasterking)

It was when i was a send at North Pie. They left their stroller outside Scoobys Haunted Castle. I didnt directly deal with the incident, they were talking to the supervisor who was standing next to me at the Load station. Im pretty sure the stroller didnt leave the park, its just that theres so many of those strollers that you couldnt tell the difference from one another apart from the size of them. You could always buy a Stroller that folds and store that in the trunk if you have the room

I think the Strollers are a $25 deposit which you get back $20 of when youve returned the stroller. Im pretty sure thats the price for it i seem to remember an upset guest who had been waiting in line and had left their stroller outside and it was taken. All they were conserned about was if they were going to get their depost back. I will try to find out more on the stroller pricing.

Yup i see them sometimes on my way into work. I hate to complain about the long lines to go through the security post, but they are made longer by the 50 or so Volunteer workers. They run the games stands sometimes, and ive seen them at foods during Fearfest.

2 minutes after the park opens we have people RUN to FOF to be the first to ride. I am gonna firmly say FOF is gonna stay.

Yes indeed there are early ride dates for Gold Season Pass Holders, i will have more info tomorrow if someone doesnt post them by the time i get home. But i can confirm there are, i was looking at the dates for them inbetween cycles, cut i forget what they were lol. Quick Question, on my wasy out of work the park looked Very Busy! How long did you wait inline for the rides you rode?

Could someone correct me if i am wrong on this, but i saw that Cedar Point only hires 18+ people? what will happen to all the Minors at KI if CF buys the park?

Hah, yeah it was great. Despite it being absolutely way to early i had a great time. The guys infront of me had a 20time marathon on the Reptar, and the Avatar was sweet.... Just for those that were there, i was the lonely looking fella with the PKI Coat and the camera lol

Im sure they will put in a ride or something where the HeliPad is, i stare it alot while i am at greet. Why did they stop running the Helicopter ride?

Oh yes, I'd expect to have to Clean up a protein spill. But thats not what the topic of discussion was, we were talking about trash, gum etc. Ive not had the pleasure of using some gloves and sprinkling some voban this season, but last season, I had my fair share of Protein Spilages lol. Trash on the otherhand is a different matter, As long as i am on the clock and still getting paid for it, i dont mind cleaning. Now i know they dont expect us to clock out and then clean so thats fine with me. The gum situation i would think is a little more difficult than most of us want it to be, using some sort of spray, scraper and then cleaning the area so no one on the ride tries to eat anything from the newly cleaned area and then gets poisoned, There really isnt enough time for that. Ride Ops do a very good job cleaning their rides at night, and then spot sweeping and checking in the morning to make sure their rides and lines are clean and ready for Open. Checking Bars all day is tiring enough, i just dont feel like we should then be responsible for having to clean throughout the day.
