Jack Sparrow and A Kitchen Fire

DCP – Day 6 – August 18, 2012

Today was my Merchandise Tier 1 training.  I met my trainer, Melissa, this morning in the costuming building at Hollywood Studios.  She was so amazing.  She was a CP last year and is a CP Facilitator this year.  My training was one-on-one and I loved it.  Melissa showed me around the park and where I would be working.  There are nine stores in my area and I think I know where they all are and what they sale.  I also got my pin lanyard today.  I cannot wait to start pin trading with the Guests!
It’s really cool to see the behind the scenes action to Hollywood Studios.  I might get lost walking around backstage but I’m still really excited to get started.  I learned all about clocking in and out and all that jazz.  I walked around the different stock rooms and found the cafeteria, which has a Subway in it.  While we were eating lunch, Jack Sparrow was eating lunch across from us.  I couldn’t stop staring.  It was just like Johnny Depp was sitting across the room from me.  Apparently, they’re opening a new Jack Sparrow exhibit and he’s there to promote it.  And apparently Johnny Depp comes to the park all the time.  So I’m hoping he comes to the opening of the new exhibit.

After work, I came home to find out there had been a small kitchen fire.  Thankfully, no one was hurt.  It will definitely be a story to tell one day about my first week in the Program.

And this is my new frog friend that likes to hang out on the ledge outside our apartment.  On the third floor.
