It has happened again.
Co-worker planning a trip over Veterans Day. This is not her first trip but it has been awhile. She is staying offsite and using a travel agent- not very well Disney versed- IMO.... She is telling me tonight (sept 8) that her travel agent says she can make her dining reservations when she is 30 days from her check in of Nov. 7th. OH MY! Then coworker says, "I want to eat in the Castle, Askersus, Chef Mickey and Ohanna"- they are also a party of 6. Yep, I did it, I burst her bubble and told her it was unlikely that she would get all or any of those reservations at this point in time. Not impossible but unlikely. Her response, "Im sure they hold some reservations back for the travel agents" .... I could be wrong but I dont think so.
Another coworker then chimes in about going Dec 28 to Jan 5 with her 4 small children. No they dont have a hotel reservation yet or anything else for that matter. And she says, "do you think there will be any discounts for last minute bookings?".... Nope.
They all know I have gone numerous times and sometimes more than once per year. They all know I spend all year planning and organizing and replanning and reorganizing my trips. They all know that I would gladly help them plan their trip too. So, why, oh why dont they listen?
