Today I got a job at Disneyland. It was a long process. It took 4 hours for the entire hiring process. I asked to be placed in "Attractions" which are the rides. And I am working in the "Critter Country". A friend where I live also works there in the same area. It isn't full-time, but at least I won't be depending on the agencies any more. Their work is too sporadic. So I have my orientation on Saturday.

Funny thing I noticed while in this hiring and interviewing process. They were hiring and taking the younger kids first. I am no longer a youngster. But I am not old either. But they all went into their interviews before I was called into an office. My friend who is my age also got placed in the same Critter Country area. I also told the interviewer that I'd be open to retail or the hotel desk clerk jobs. She said there were no jobs open in those departments. Hmmmm. :-3

congratulations and have lots of fun on the job! :-6

Thanks you guys!:)

Yes, as far as I know, after 90 days. And everything is so high priced there. Along with the stores and eating places around Disneyland neighborhood.

Congratulations! That sounds like fun! What will you be doing?

Very pleased for you, Saffron. Congratulations!!!!!

I'm not totally sure, but I know it will be working on the rides. Like in boats, or strapping people into the rides there. My friend said she was rowing a canoe. But it really does sound like fun, being outside in the fresh air. And getting to move around physically. And even just being in that environment. I am really looking forward to the orientation as we are going to be shown around the park. !!!:p

:-6 hi

Congrats Saffron! Maybe you could get a group discount for all us FGer's?:D

Now get that out of your head.

I am actually looking forward to starting this job on Saturday. Just being in that park setting would be nice instead of sitting cramped in an office in front of a monitor.

The ride that used to make me sick was the teacups. I cannot wait to go on the Pirates of the Caribbean and the Haunted Mansion again. And of course, the Matterhorn.
