Glad I have a bunch of WDW employees to answer my questions. As a kid I always dreamed about working there, don't konw what I didn't ever do it.

Anyway my wife have talked about someday doing it. A had a few questions.

Pay-I know you don't get paid enough (nobody does) but is pay in a good enough range to pay a living expenses?

Tatoos, Ihave a visable tatto on my forearm. I was told that that would prevent me from getting a job there. Is that true? I actually have 3 (one is Mickey) but two are on my upper arms so not a problem. Just wondering because we really thought about someday (far away) selling out house and doing this.

Thanks for the info in advance.

Only if you live in the Ghetto, or have been there for 10 years and are topped out.

You may not have any visible tattoos. They'd need to be covered at all times.

Thanks for the info. We would plan on not having a mortgage. We the sale of our house we though it might be possible.

As for the tatoo. I would either get it removed then or try to find a job that has long sleeves.

Is it hard to get job there and do you like it?

don't let them see the tattoo during your interview. No matter how much you're willing to be flexible, if they see it, you will be turned away. Don't tell them you're willing to wear a longsleeved shirt. Once you get hired, wear the long sleeved shirt. But don't let the recruiter know you have a visible tattoo, or you more than likely will not get a job. This is not exaggeration.... I know of CM's who had to apply twice, the second time with a tattoo covered, so they would get cast.

no it isn't... and I did like it when I worked there.
