I may not have seen it all, but I've seen enough!


I was an entertainment supervisor at Sea World in Orlando for years.
On one Saturday I was reviewing shows.

I went up to buy a drink at a small Kiosk.
The vendor girl did the same thing and held up one finger for me to wait while she finished up her phone conversation. It was a longer wait than any of us in line would tolerate.

I got a name from her name tag and wrote it up in my report.
The report made it to the VP of Operations.
All cellphones were put away after that.

People obsessed with phones always use the excuse: "What if there's an emergency?"
You deal with it the same way we did before Cell phones took over.
Have your family call a supervisor, the supervisor will see you in person with any news that couldn't wait.

Now, let me get back to playing Candy Crush.
(I'm kidding, I'm too stupid to own a Smart Phone.)
