Theme Park Orientation

DCP – Day 5 – August 17, 2012

After waking up way before the sun, I made my way to Hollywood Studios for my theme park orientation.  I learned how to clock in and everything before we on a tour of the park.  Our tour guide was Nathan and he knew ever random fact about the park.  It was really handy to know the little facts that I can share with Guests someday. 

I got my training schedule for next week today as well.  I’ll be working at Once Upon a Time on Sunset Boulevard near the Beauty and the Beast show.  I’ll also be working across the street at the candy store.  Not quite sure how I feel about that since I have to learn to make candy but I’m sure it will be fine.  I can always just dazzle my manager with my amazing skills and transfer to another store.

I also got this snazzy new ribbon to go on my equally snazzy costume.  Please try not to laugh when you see my costume.  Trust me.  It’s better than most.  Haha.

I received my schedule for next week and was pleased to see that I have two days off.  I am beyond excited to finally get to be able to work.  Although the leisure of the past few days has been fun, I’m ready to just have a scheduled time to be somewhere.  I’ve miss the stability of having a job to do and a place to be.  I guess I’m just weird and like work.  I’m just so excited to get to work at Disney!  I still feel the need to pinch myself sometimes to remind myself that I’m really working here.  I can’t wait to make magical memories for the Guest and myself!
