Goes a bit faster than normal time!
I walked into the security office right at 3:30PM. Just before I did, I looked down to our Easter Bunny set and saw the bunny and employee sitting there. 5-minutes later there was angry knocking on the office door, which my coworker answered. 2-Women with 3 children and 5 children. They began yelling that they'd been waiting over 1/2 hour and the easter bunny wasn't there, they had places to be, it wasn't anywhere near lunchtime so where was he, this was terrible, etc. Coworker asked me if I knew anything, so I told the lady's that they had just missed him and he must have gone on break, as he needs one about every 3-4 hours. They said I was lying that that he hadn't been there for over 1/2 hour and that they had been dragging the kids to shops X and Y all this time. I told them that, perhaps I was mistaken, but that if he had been gone that long already that it would only be about 15 minutes more, so no more than a 45min break. They grumbled and asked why they took so many breaks. I told them, quietly so the kids wouldn't hear, that it gets VERY hot in that suit and that it's for the employee's safety (note that it's a hired company, we provide the set and the company leases it to do the bunny photos). They finally left, and I told coworker they were lying through their teeth. I went to the break area and gave the easter people the heads-up on these angry women. They confirmed they had left just after 3:30PM. If these lady's were in shops X and Y, then they were looking at the easter set from the side, and from that angle it could have looked like the set was empty, so these women were bitching because they'd never actually checked to see if the bunny was there! The guy jumped right back in his suit, which he didn't have to do as he'd had about a 10 min break, and went back out, but by that time the bitch with the 5 kids had left, but the other one didn't really give them a hard time. On the upside, they then made a HUGE sale of several of their package deals.

and the mother was very upset. I hope the kids weren't traumatized too bad.
