It's just easier to list the rides I HAVEN'T worked at...in four years at PCW, the only rides I have never worked at are...

Italian Job: Stunt Track
Jimmy Neutron's Brainwasher
Dora's Treetop Lookout
Waterslides (I'm not a lifeguard)

That's it...just those four...worked at least one position at every other ride in the park!

Thanks Carowinds, there is a little story behind it. The first the owner at the beach park sold his business bye bye. Then Compounce shut down after the mess with The dude from MI who almost ruined Compounce I forget the jerk's name. again bye bye. So then Riverside which I loved. Then my real job the one that pays the bills sent me to Ohio and I said hello PKI. Then I gave it a rest.
