Here are a few pictures that I took at the ABC Christmas Parade taping on 12/4/04. I have a few more that I can post later. I missed Sunday (sob) so if anyone has any pictures from that day, it would be great. Merry Christmas...

I completely agree with this article. My first time to ride the ride was last Sat. I was very dissapointed. I kept waiting for the "big finale" that never happened. We weren't even able to watch a "preshow" movie (maybe there isn't one?). I was dissapointed in the "new robot" in the...

I had a feeling that Dianna D. would be there on Sunday. They seem to have started a trend with American Idol runner ups appearing on the show. I would have loved to have been there for that taping. The only thing is that it does get boring after a while, with all of the starts and stops...

Yesterday wasn't as bad as I had expected. Lines were not that bad. Saw a lot of celebrities (admittedly, some whose name I did not know). However, John Stamos was definitely a crowd favorite. He was so nice and posed in pictures with anyone who wanted to. Faith Ford was also very friendly...

Great! Thanks for the info. I'll be there in the AM.

Great pics and videos! Thanks!

Hi all, Does anyone have a definite confirmation that ABC will be filming the Christmas parade on Dec. 4th (tomorrow)? Aslo, when are the other shots at the other parks typically filmed? Any info or experiences from last year is appreciated. I will be there and hear that it's a crazy day at...

What fun! But it still makes me miss the old days of Residential Street..

That sounds true to form for Disney....at least they've moved up in some fashion. I think I might try for the same route eventually.

Have any of your friends with the MBAs actually ever moved up? I think the name of the game in moving up with Disney is 1) Knowing someone or 2) Persistence or 3) lucky break (But being persistent doesn't really pay that much) Thanks MKT for all the feedback.

I understand that all positions are open for other cast members, and the internal politics of advancement, but I was also curious if this type of role was closer to advancement than some other roles? I know it's not a "corporate role" but is it considered more valuable experience than other...

Has anyone ever worked or is currently working as a "Planning Center Coordintator?" (Fancy name for off property ticket/package sales) I have the opportunity to interview for this position, but I am concerned about the opportunity for advancement. I eventually want to be involved in Disney...

You're very welcome. Be sure to write me when YOU'RE hiring new people in your department at WDW! GO FOR IT!!! Life's too short! :)

Great video! Thanks for the preview.

I'm sure someone has mentioned it, but it bears repeating: the bakery on Mainstreet at MK. All of those delicious goodies inside! (I also know that much of the smells from there are manufactured from a machine, but nonetheless, it's the best!) :slurp:

Rest assured that you are not the only person with this deep desire. I empathize with you. It's so hard when you know that you want to work there, but can't find the way in. I've heard everything from "start at the bottom and work your way up" to "come in at the top of your game." So, I'm...

That sounds like a cool temp gig. I am curious, however, if the pay is the same or about the same as one might make as a regular employee of Disney? Also, how long have you been assigned to work for Disney?

I think the best thing you can do is, like you said, to keep all options open. However, if you're anything like me, you can't afford to take the paycut that goes along with some of the roles. I have a degree in Bus. Mgmt, but have been selling television advertising for the past five years. I...

Good Luck! I know what you're feeling SnowWhite5669. It's sooo hard to resist the temptation. I HAVE walked into the casting office before and only to find that there are mostly hourly positions available. The only upper level positions are posted at disneycareers.com or internally. I...

Great advice. I'm in the same situation as many...working in a field where I have no interest with big dreams of being Disney again (did characters Summer of 98) I do have 5 years of sales behind me, but somehow can't parlay that into getting in the Disney door. Even had an "insider"...
