What if the new rollercoaster has the ECTO-1, DeLorean and one of the F&F Cars on it

"All I want is a Universal's Great Movie Ride and a great roller coaster for Studios!"

Let's get a JP Jeep and/or The Orca in there and we got a good train going
And, depending on which car you're seated in, the music is different

Heh, move those RRR coaster TM's over to Epic so they can run their coasters full capacity.

So ... funny story, I actually asked a HRRR TM yesterday what was going to happen to them as of today.

They are being transferred to another venue, as usual, and they did get to request three potential venues they would prefer to transfer into if there are any spots available. But they weren't allowed to request any venues at Epic. They are only being considered for North Campus operations.

HRRR TMs are probably overqualified for other coaster attractions due to all the issues HRRR has. Send them to Epic.

This whole situation is baffling. You don't just "not run" one side of your dueling, high-capacity coaster in a park that desperately needs reliable attractions. That's Six Flags behavior. What are we doing here?

Is the issue they don't have enough staff?

They have been hiring lots of new staff from all departments as of late, attractions included. So it's definitely on the mind for UDX. I wonder if they can find enough people.

TMs are looking forward to a pay increase coming soon, so attracting potential staff might honestly be a concern for them.

I guess if they're hiring lots of new staff, that sounds like they didn't initially hire enough staff. A 'positive' sign if true.

Surely, Tiny can do a tummy check on aisle 2 of either, or even *both*, Stardust Racers! Hasta!

Remember hearing this from my former coworkers. Transfers to Epic were in extremely high demand before I left, but that was before the park opened. I'm guessing there might still be a list of potential transfers?

 

[Circ]

... so why were they just saying Hasta, anyways? Is there some significance to that or something they were trying to kick off?

Cringe cool.

The funny thing is that, on the CC on the monitors, it says "Awesome!" when they say this.

I think they pivoted at some point.

I believe it was meant to be a hip, slick, rockin' slang way to say "Until next time!". Cutting off the larger phrase "Hasta la Vista" at just "Hasta!". The 2000s were certainly one of the decades lmao.

Oh hey…

Demo will start before HHN…

 

[Mad Dog]

Oh hey…

Good idea.

 

[Tobias]

Yeah, there's zero doubt they want this thing demo'd asap to get the ball rolling for its replacement. It'll be interesting to see what's still standing by the time HHN rolls around.
