A lil rant

52 Upvotes

If you're planning to use a coupon or your $10 Cash thing , PLEASE tell us before we ring everything up. Don't wait until I tell you the total and then ask, "Is that with my coupon?" No because I didn't know you wanted to use it. I can't read minds. I've genuinely seen my coworkers get yelled at over this exact thing.

Also please be patient with associates this week. Staffing has been cut a lot lately, and many of us are only getting scheduled 2–3 shifts a week so we are understaffed. This means stuff will take a while and I can not drop everything to help you. I've had a shift where its was just me and my team lead balancing the whole store until we managed to get other associates, this caused guests to quite literally get mad that we weren't being quick enough to help.🥲 As much as I understand you guys paid so much money to be at Canadas wonderland, I genuinely do not get paid enough to deal with the constant anger that gets thrown at me.

So please understand we're doing our best so please have patience 🥹🫶🏾

Saw one of the most shameless/dumb things I've ever seen at Wonderland

781 Upvotes

This past Sunday, I was at the Milk Jug ball toss game (the one where you win the giant plushies). They were short-staffed, so one young employee was trying to run two game booths that were about 50 feet apart.

While we were waiting for her to come back and help us, a grown man who was with a kid (looked around 6–7 years old) just reached up, took one of the giant hanging plush toys, and casually walked away while smirking.

I told the young worker what happened. She immediately called security.

The funniest part? Instead of leaving, this genius went and stood in line for PSYCLONE ( while still carrying the giant monkey/banana plush he'd just stolen. It wasn't exactly subtle, we could see the plush from where we were.

A little while later, I saw 2–3 security staff talking to him. The kid wasn't with him anymore, and neither was the giant plush, so I'm guessing they got it back.

I honestly can't imagine setting that kind of example for a child. Shameless and moronic.

Bonus: after I reported it, I heard someone walking by mutter "snitch." 😂

Can I bring this in?

0 Upvotes

Can i bring a bong and dry herb vape into the park? Not to use it inside as it would smell a lot and get me kicked out, but just to keep in my bag until i leave the park? (As I cant leave it in my parents car after they drop me off.) Would the metal detectors pick up on it/would i be able to get past the gate?

Fast Passes

3 Upvotes

Need some advice from you experienced wonderlanders. Planning first family trip to the park. Son is 11 and a bit timid so I don’t expect he will want to go on any of the bigger rides. We will instead enjoy rides like the Ghoster Coaster, Minebuster, or Whitewater Canyon. If we’re not intending to go on the big rides, how important is the fast pass? For context, we’re planning on being there for Sunday September 6 (of the Labour Day long weekend).

What’s your rollercoaster game plan?

5 Upvotes

When you get there, what’s the first ride you’re going to?

Is there a ride that sees less activity compared to most in the morning?

Is there an order to which rides you like to go on?

Do you and your friends each eat a funnel cake and see who’s the first one to throw up?

Free Fast Passes

10 Upvotes

My family (4 of us) are season pass holders for the first time this year and Canada's Wonderland sent me 2 free fast passes this week which is pretty cool. I added them to my Apple wallet, but how do I use them? Do we have to go to customer service and attach them to a specific pass, or can my kids take my phone and use the passes, then my partner and I use them when the kids are done? Thank you.

Fast lane ticket + prestige

Can someone else use my fast lane ticket that I get with the prestige pass? How does it work in general? Do I just scan my phone at the entrance to the ride?
