A Bit of Thanks

Welcome back to Taylor Talks!

As a Guest at Disney World, if you've ever been able to visit, you've probably met quite a few nice Cast Members. It's expected that we (I love that I'm included in this) go out of our way to ensure that Guests have a Magical experience while visiting. But now that I'm a Cast Member myself, I realize that it isn't just part of the job. Cast Members are truly nice people.
Every night, I ride a bus from my job location back to the parking lot where I leave my car. My location is the first bus pick-up area, so I'm usually sitting alone with the bus driver for a while until we pick up at other locations.

It truly amazes me how kind these bus drivers are each night. They go out of their way to converse with me as we drive through the darkness and make me feel good after a long day of work.

Sometimes the bus drivers tell me about their experiences. Other times they'll give me advice on moving about in the company, or how I can learn more about the perks of being a Cast Member. These bus drivers must bring hundreds of Cast Members back and forth over the course of their shifts, and yet I always feel like I'm being treated like their most important passenger as we drive.

I think that the Disney bus drivers may sometimes be taken for granted. As a Guest at Disney who has taken bus transportation on numerous occasions, I've seen silent Guests get off of the bus without a word, but I've also seen plenty of Guests stop to give their thanks in appreciation of being taken to their destination efficiently and safely. I guess the point of tonight's post is that I want people to remember to always thank the people who help you, whether or not you're at Disney. The smallest smile or kind gesture can brighten a person's day and too many of us take a lot for granted unfortunately. We need to stop and remember who has helped us along the way, from the bus driver, to the custodial staff who replaces the paper towels in the bathroom, to the parents who guide you each day.

In case I haven't said it lately, thanks for everything you do for me, Mom & Dad!

Thank you so much for your continued support! I look forward to sharing more stories about my experience with foster care, and hopefully hearing from readers who have questions or similar stories to share. I'm always willing to answer questions and hear about other experiences! Please don't forget to like and share my Facebook author page as well!

I’d greatly appreciate it if you would share this blog with friends and family through your favorite social media sites. If you’re sharing on Twitter, don’t forget to tag me (@TayTayK02) and use the hashtag #TaylorTalks.

Thanks!
Taylor

    Picture
    My family started doing foster care when I was three years old. We took in nineteen children over the course of eighteen years, with our last placement leaving in December 2014. I'm the only biological child in my family, though my parents adopted five of my siblings.

    I love to share my perspective on the foster care system and share how my unique upbringing shaped my life.

    I'm also a Cast Member at Walt Disney World and lover of all things Disney! My career allows me the opportunity to find a little bit of Magic in life every day.


    I enjoy sharing my journey as a writer as well. Find my children's books on Amazon and keep following my blog for updates on future books that I'll be releasing!
