We kind of liked the cold days, because crowds were low, and that meant more time to play pranks and jokes on each other, and it was just more mellow...breaks were leisurely, people seemed relaxed, happy...but when it was really slow, sometimes staff got sent home early, that meant a lower paycheck...no one liked that! Even on a slow day there were at least four of us at the diving bell, but that would usually mean only two or three rides all day for each of us, with half empty diving bells. We never turned anyone away. Seems like if there were seven or more we would take a ride, and that usually was not too difficult to round up at least that many.
