My local Disney Store is hiring for the holiday season. I worked at the mall last holiday season and I hated it (I worked at Delia's, if that matters to anyone). Basically, they had me stand up at the door my entire shift (6-8) hours and be the "greeter". I hated that more than words can express. If I apply to the Disney Store and get hired, what are my chances of getting stuck being a "greeter". I haven't noticed that there's really ever a greeter at my Disney Store, but then again, there hasn't been one at Delia's since I left either. I wouldn't mind working the cash register (as a matter of fact, I actually like that) or doing shipment. Working for Disney is my dream (!) and working at the Disney Store sounds like a good start. For people who do or have worked at the Disney Store during the holiday season: what can I expect?
Background: I'm 17 and have graduated high school so I can work during the day (preferred). I'm starting college in late January, but that shouldn't affect seasonal. I'm going to WDW December 4-11; would that make them not want to hire me because I'll be gone for a week? What kind of discounts do I get from being a seasonal Disney Store CM?*
*I'm not in it for the discounts, I'd work there even if I got none, I'm just curious.
I've filled out my application already, I just wanted to get some input before I go hand it in.
