    lol i can't believe you made a choice between having to leave and all these other things and even more that someone would choose transportation over having to leave haha

    all of this was bad stuff, but having to leave ripped my heart out, so here is no comparison

    Okay babe, I accidentally voted length of contract but I guess it's an okay vote b/c if my contract was longer I wouldn't have to leave. I wish my contract could've been for 20 years!!!!

    Definately having to come home. :'(

    During leaving speeches people talk about the bad times, the good times etc. but at mine I had to admit (through raging :'( ::) ;D ) that I hadn't actually had any bad times in my whole 13 months.

    I may not live there any longer but my heart (and alas, also my head) will always be in WDW.

    Where was that topic about the WDWIP screwing your head up? Lol. ;D

    Of course the worst thing was having to leave... but if i had a 2nd choice it would definately be the transportation. It wasnt so much that the buses were late or anything it was just the state of the buses themselves. Most of the dynamic buses were death traps and a tradegy waiting to happen... i dont know what its like now tho as i hear disney now use a different company but dynamic buses used to break down quite regularly. I remember one bus blowing up in the commons, luckily no one was hurt. :eek:

    Not only were the dynamic buses dangerous but they were truly disgusting, a number of them were infested with cockroaches. I remember seeing loads of cockroaches scurrying around all over the floor at night times and also them climbing all over the seats. Makes me skin crawl!

    Also does anyone remember the stench that used to come from the unused toilets at the back of some of the dynamic buses? Imagine all the stuff that the body excretes all mixed together!!! Gross!!

    I was disgusted with the way disney treated us in terms of transportation to work... Hopefully this is no longer the case.

    I have pictures of that Dynamic bus that went ka-plooie in the Commons! It was after the fire was put out and it was all blacked with the windows smashed in and firefighters around it! It was the WalMart bus(Bus'H')! That was an exciting day!

    But yes the buses were gross with they're urine encrsuted smells and cochroches! But they switched companies hunh?! That's great! I heard they wanted them to be all more like city buses and less like 'greyhound' buses.

    Oh! And I picked leaving too! Next saturday marks my year home *sniff* Will have to drink like it was a another monday night in the commons though! Of course length of contract too, I wished it had been for longer......

    Oh and mildly annoying were the apt inspections, and the people who got term'd from things found.......

    Wow seems like a lot of stuff has changed. Our busses weren't great and always crowded, but at least they weren't smelling bad or had cockroaches ( or maybe I don't remember ) and we never had anyone inspecting our apt.! Actually when I moved in our apt. had just been crowned as the cleanest one in the Commons! woohoo lol
    I didn't have any bad times either during my year, it was the happiest I had ever been in my life! And leaving this dreamworld definitely breaks your heart!

    Oh Jeremiah! That boy was so much fun it was a sad day when he left! And term'd the day before he started service too!
    The story I heard was that it wasn't a beebee gun, or alcohol. Something to do with Safety Meetings. *grin* ;) Of course I could be mistaken!

    But I'm sure a beebee gun would get you term'd and there was that story before my year that some people got term'd for having a mickey mouse strung up by his neck in their washroom.

    What about none of the above? I'd personally have to say it's the WDWIP B.S.... like the constantly strain that we're all adults living on our own, but you have the most minor tiff with your roommate and they treat you like children! I have too many examples to give..believe me.

    But I voted for 'Managers"...if any of you remember one of posts before...getting terminated for spraining an ankle!!!?? WTF? Thank god for George Kalogridis, who reversed that decision..he was definitely on of the BEST parts of the program!

    You seem to have forgotten the job itself! I unlike a lot of people was quite happy to come home (altho I did have to leave Sara and friends behind) but being in that cave for hours on end was the worst part of the program!

    Oh that and stupid international roomates who would decide 3 am was a good time to have a party! Arghhhhh!
