Really, is there anyone who actually does enjoy cast member led screaming contests? (I guess there must be, as some do participate in them, but egad!)
I used to be involved in teaching cast member workshops which covered various performance and courtesy skills. I began one of those classes by enthusiastically shouting a perky,"Are you all feeling happy?!?" This was met silence and glares from the cast, naturally. I followed up with, "I can't heeeear you!!" Some of them moaned, and rightfully so.
I apologized for the awfulness of that opening, and then let the cast know that most guests feel exactly the same way about what we call "cheerleading." I'd like to think that everyone in that class immediately stopped doing it, but I'm afraid I know otherwise.
