| | | Witty Responses
Ok, so I'm curious to know what are some witty responses employees can use to some of the smartarse comments we often times get while working a ride. For example the whole "am I tall enough..hu hu" thing that teenagers typically do that gets pretty annoying at times. How are some creative witty ways we, as employees, can respond to this??

| | | "How fast does the coaster go?"
"Faster than the ambulance can arrive to pick you up if you don't wear your seatbelt" |

| | | Not witty but funny in a "you can't do crap about it" kind of way comment TO a ride op. Not really a ride op as you will see in the following tale. It was one of those high on themselves employees who thinks they are da shizz. You know who you are. Snotty little yuppies.
Anyway. In line for V2 at SFGAm. Opening year for it. At the beginning of the line they hand you numbered tickets so nobody line jumps. Throughout the course of the hours or so long line, our group of 4 sort of switched places between ourselves. We did NOT cut anybody. We get to the station and there is the ticket taker girl. My brother is the first to her and hands her his ticket.
"You're supposed to be in order" She says
"Were all in the same group. One of the other 3 has the right ticket" He says
"Well you have to be in order or I can't let you through"
"Eh, well, I don't know what to tell ya" [walks into station]
One of the other 3 even tried to hand him the right ticket but she wouldn't have it and we were tired of wasting the time of all the people behind us. We all walked in and she just got huffy and in that "What-evurrr" kind of mood. Looking back, I guess its really not so much a comment as it is an action. I guess I just wanted to tell that story.  |

Something like that, I guess.

| | | (mullet wearing a wife beater approaches, and crouches into a duck walk) . . ."Am I tall enough?"
You: "Better question, is this ride tall enough FOR YOU?"
d-bag 14 year old: "do you like you're job?"
You: "I like it better than looking at your face"
girl, 15-17: "OMG! Is this ride like scary?!!"
You: "Ha! Not as scary as teenage pregnancy"
Only use the first in one, unless you work at Six Flags, and a bad one at that.

| | | If you have to think about them ahead of time, then they aren't really "witty". Comical maybe, but not witty. Witty implies quickness in the retort.
But if you want a funny comment for the "Am I tall enough?" question...If it is a guy, respond: "Yes, but your feet are awfully small."

Like if someone asks if the fire is real (from the one above), you say "No, its a cardboard cutout." Or something like that.
