Disney jobs for baby boomers?

[JeffM]

Hello, I currently live in Tennessee and do not like the winters. I am alone as my kids are grown and I am a widower. For the past few years I've thought a lot about moving to Florida and renting a small apartment. I would like to work at the Disney parks but am wondering what positions might be available for a man of close to 60.

Welcome!! There are jobs available at all levels at WDW. Please realize the entry level pay is not great, but the benefits are good. You will however love the weather!! This is a great place to get an idea of what is available.

From the CMs I've spoken with, there are lots of positions available. I've spoken with lots of former northerners who've moved down and gotten jobs at WDW. I've spoken with several retired police officers who now work security or crowd control at various night time shows. Many people now work in shops, sales. Often they ask you your favorite park-I remember when AK was earliest to close (maybe it still is), a CM recommended saying that park because unless you're a night owl, remember that you'll be "on the clock" for at least two hours after closing time. I don't envy you-TOO much!
