    Just for fun.... You have the chance to work any job in WDW, what would you like to do??

    It truly is a great job, but not without it's challenges. Yes we do get dumped on and that is a great source of frustration. But anyone who has experience working in customer service knows it goes with the territory. And you know that's going to happen before you ever get in the seat. I still...

    Just for fun.... You have the chance to work any job in WDW, what would you like to do??

    The cool part is you can have the best of both worlds. If you make the audition for "Traditions " you still stay in your regular role. Traditions is typically facilitated on Saturday and Sunday. So instead of scheduling you to your regular role you would be scheduled to DU on the day they want...

    Just for fun.... You have the chance to work any job in WDW, what would you like to do??

    It's simply because it is considered a huge honor to be chosen to facilitate a Disney right of passage. Anyone teaching it would not want to give it up there by not giving others the opportunity to experience it. I have found teaching at DU to be an incredible experience, as far as stale...

    Just for fun.... You have the chance to work any job in WDW, what would you like to do??

    Please, I'm not trying to scare you away. I am just trying to give you insight as to how meticulous Disney is with any and all production. Too me that's the cool part, they take it seriously. So many times a show may be on and new ( to that show) CM's may be mixed in , but the training process...

    Just for fun.... You have the chance to work any job in WDW, what would you like to do??

    On number 6. If you're referring to "Traditions" that is a very prestigious goal to achieve at WDW. The biggest challenge (assuming you are chosen at your audition) is remembering content. I teach at DU part time, those positions are treated as "shows" and like a show yet have to remember your...

    Just for fun.... You have the chance to work any job in WDW, what would you like to do??

    To a certain degree yes, but then again you have full access anyway. ( think utilidors, backstage areas) Backstage areas are the interesting things to see, as a guest this is off limits. As a CM you can explore to see how things work! Also through this process I have had many aha moments when...

    Just for fun.... You have the chance to work any job in WDW, what would you like to do??

    To all the dreamers....... I too had fantasies about being a CM. And then I became one! I have no regrets and I still love what I do, but remember as soon as you pin that name tag on your costume it becomes a job. And just like every job there is the everyday hustle and bustle of getting to work...

    Yes they are stored in some backstage areas till they can be moved. Due to construction , some areas do not have accommodations just yet to safely store them. There is a lot more happening behind the scenes than is being discussed here.

    News New Gondola Transportation - Disney Skyliner

    It is official ( in case it hasn't been posted here yet) The Gondolas are going through testing and trials. Don't expect to see much unless you are a night owl. Just about anything that could be seen by the public is being done at night.

    Wild About Safety Cards

    Best of my knowledge there is only one set of safety cards, they are a newcomer. They can be a struggle to collect. I give them out and still don't have a complete set!
