I have already done the job and the animals that I got to present were the creepy crawly ones that most people do not pay attention to. Such as Tarantulas, Scorpions, Cockroaches. I also got to do presentations on Dino-Sue and run a couple of kids activities.

That's very cool! Well, I'd probably prefer to work with the soft, fuzzy and cuddly animals...but I imagine you had a very cool experience :) Sounds like fun!

I draw the line at invertebrates!! (and snakes...only because they have to eat mice.) Otherwise, I'm fine with lizards,frogs, turtles, etc. (as long as they don't have to eat mice.) We even have a friendly oppossum, who is cute unless he squeezes into my kitchen! :eek:

Maria,
A lot of people feel the way that you do its cool. That is why I liked my role so much because I had the oppurtunity to try and give invertebrates a positive spin. I loved talking to the guests that did not like the animal I had because then I would tell them all the cool things that the animal did and why it was important to humans ho have them around.

I wish I were Maria...or at least looked like her! I didn't mean I didn't want them around at all, just not living in my house! ;) I (well, technically my son, but I end up taking care of them)have all of the other things as pets in my house. I just won't let him get the spiders, insects(except for crickets and worms), and snakes! Of course, as a Floridian, I do have a few "water bugs" from time to time!!;)

Except on a windy day...

tram driver

One of my best friends was a tram driver at the Animal Kingdom. She liked it for the most part but said that it got a little boring.

If it had to be an "on stage" job, I would love to work in Guest Relations again. I like listenning to complains and solving situations so people leave the park happy. I like the fact that I could change the guest experience to make it more enjoyable.
Also, GR people have access to almost every area in the parks and the plaid is very well respected by all the other CM´s! hehe... ;)

Best case scenario, taste tester for Boma's. Worse case scenario would be the guy who has to push the horsey pooper scooper garbage can behind the carriage in the MK parade.

I have to give that guy credit though. He stopped in front of us during the parade while one of the dance numbers was going on and he was hilarious, dancing, mingling with the crowd. This guy definately made the most of his situation.
