This may have been talked about before, but I've never seen it. I'm just curious. Who here works or has worked for Disney, and what do/did you do? I'm just trying to figure out who I'm talking to on here.

I will be working at Disney World starting in late May!
I guess you could say that I work for Disney. A significant portion of my take home pay goes to Disney. :ROFLOL:

:sohappy: It was under recreation. I think my offical job title was recreation hostess.
I loved it b/c it's a pretty small group of people. The became my Florida family. The job is easy and a lot of fun...you have to adjust to the heat b/c your outside all day long, but other than that it was wonderful!
You do a mix of things- taking guest money, explaining the courses to them, size them for putters, keep the course clean, sell soda and candy....
I really ejoyed my time there.

That's awsome. I did merchandise my first CP in Fantasyland. And my 2nd CP I was a character attendant.

I can't say what I do, or the mouse will kill me.
Hehe
I think I'm in the same boat. I would say some ostriches might trample you though instead of Mickey. Wait, do they have those at DAK? If so, we could get real ostriches to trample you...nevermind.

My screen name says it all. One of the several "claims to fame" is that I was the first Pluto to be located in Mexico, once the suits decided that it was ok to have characters in EPCOT. Another claim, since I could still perform though I was crying (at times) in my costume, I usually was asked to do specials for medically challenged (terminally ill, physically deformed, etc) children. One of the others that usually got asked/volunteered was my roommate who played Mickey's girlfriend.

I'm glad you posted this. I've always wondered how characters and their friends could handle those challenges...I don't think I have what it takes. I'd be a wreck. Every time I see an interaction like this I'm amazed by the poise and genuine love the characters express. So thank you for all the happiness you've brought!
BTW, we love Pluto in my family. DD is 5 and one of the best character experiences she ever had was with Pluto at AK. He made such a fuss over her little stuffed dog (the child does not go anywhere without a stuffed animal).
