I was quite tired after the previous night's employee party. Because of that, I was hoping for a ride that didn't require too much thought or effort to operate. I clocked in and was assigned to Granny Bugs.

I didn't get any riders until about 11:00am. Once they started coming, they didn't stop until I finally got off at 4:10pm.

I wasn't paying too much attention to any of the other rides; I was mostly concentrating on trying to stay awake!

I had Friday off, but I was back on the Granny Bugs on Saturday. It was another uneventful day. The ride itself is not too bad to work, but it gets fairly repetitive as the day goes on.

Chaos had 3 breakdowns during my shift. That seems like quite a bit! I think this was largely due to improper loading of the ride. If the ride is not filled to capacity, then it has be balanced so the weight of the riders is equally distributed. In all the breakdown cases, the weight was all in one part.
