Originally Posted By davewasbaloo Hmmmm, i wish I knew what my reputation is. Maybe those that feel I am brash is undeserved. Not in a good place right now, so maybe I should tip toe away from this one.
Originally Posted By wahooskipper I'm not sure what kind of "reputation" I have. I have been told by some that I don't have much of a sense of humor. Well, that couldn't be further from the truth. Heck, I was a pretty darned good Jungle Cruise Skipper. I think b/c I take my profession seriously people think I am too tight.
Originally Posted By MomofPrincess I think my reputation in general is pretty accurate of who I am, but my looks in general are a bit deceiving. I have had several people (husband and best friend included) tell me I seemed really snobby and high maintenance from a distance -- before they took the time to know me. I think it's just that look I have. So now I'm constantly smiling like some lunatic to let people know hey, I'm actually quite friendly and warm. And possibly psychotic since, as you can see, I smile constantly. LOL But anyway, snobby couldn't be further from the truth. I'm actually really warm and non-judgmental. High maintenance, though? TOTALLY.

This couldn't be further from the truth and in fact apart from our first trip, Barry has booked all the other's by himself as a surprise to me. I cannot make my friends and family believe this. No-one believes he is a ride demon and LOVES DL as much as I do. He says once he enters those front gates he can forget about our business, forget being an adult and just have some fun!
Originally Posted By Ursula I confess that people think my job is really, really hard. When I got back from my recent vacation, it was literally two day's worth of "your job is so hard" and "it took three people to cover for you" and "they don't PAY you enough." Yet, I find my job very easy to do. (There are stressful times, certainly, but it is not brain surgery). So, I guess my undeserved recognition is that I am awesome at a very hard job that isn't very hard at all (to me).
Originally Posted By sherrytodd I'd say as an impulsive risk taker. We do a lot of things that are considered extreme, but the truth is, everything we do I carefully weigh the risks and ensure that we are as safe as possible. I'm usually in more danger on the freeway.

Originally Posted By DlandJB This is hard because I think I'm pretty easy to figure out. But I'm probably equally crazy as I am serious and equally as shy as I am outgoing.
Originally Posted By DVC_dad I am often told that I am a great father. I'm not so sure... I guess it is true to a certain extent, it certainly appears to be the case when we are all out in public, because the kids know that to act up in public brings a near death experiece when we get back "home," ...but really being honest, I see so many things I do that I could do better, and all the shortcomings, I often feel like the rep is totally undeserved. If I had less kids, I think my father'ing skills wouldn't even be noticed.
