We have frequented the Family Fun Center on numerous occasions this season. Our first few experiences were wonderful and our group had a great time. The staff was very helpful and attentative. However, this was not the case today. Today we watched the staff do nothing to enforce the rules of "no knees" all afternoon. My 1 year old nephew was going down the big slide all day with our 9 year old son, (on his lap, holdig on to him). The last ride down the young girls that worked there had done a change of position and a different girl was at the top telling the kids when to go down. This second girl informed my 9 year old that the 1 year old could only go down with an adult, and that he couldn't buddy up as they had been doing the previous 3 hours! Apparently it wasn't safe for a 9 year old to take him down, but it was safe for him to ride ALONE!!! A 1 year old! I cannot tell you how disappointed we were to see such poor judgement used! This same girl also sat in the consession area earlier in the day texting on her cell phone the entire time and barely glanced at the pool of kids.
We are aware that our children are our responsiblity, but this employee is clearly should not be working at a place that requires common sense. I know the family fun center has not consistantly stayed open over the years, and I could only imagine this is part of that reason.
After this incident I spoke with the one other girl that was working to let her know about it. She never got up to go speek to the other girl, and it was only AFTER I pointed out all the kids sliding on their knees that she reluctantly got up and told them to stop doing it. At one point there were kids trying to STAND on the small slde while going down. Clearly these 2 employees have no pride in their jobs. Its a shame.
