Well, I am returning too. They can't get rid of me on my own freewill. I am also applying for Team Leader.

I had my departmental training today at Great Adventure. I'm working as a lead for park services for my internship this summer. I look foward to some interesting conversation here since I'm one of you now.

Oh wow I never updated. I started out on Tomorrowland Speedway, which was hell except for the friends I made working there. I was going to go back to Cedar Point this summer, but instead I transferred to Disney-MGM Studios and am now on Tower of Terror.

Today I did my training in the rides department of SFA. Basically we sat in a class and were lectured on everything we should know about operating the rides. We were then given a 42 question test. We could only get 4 questions wrong but I got them all right (it was really easy). So now on thursday morning I go in for my first day, I'm hoping I'll be running a coaster and I'm fairly sure I will be, but I'll find out that morning where I'm working.

After Tony and Tyler pretty much slapped me in the face at CP, I decided to quit and try Ride Operations at SFGAm with TA2KX. I have department training in 3 days which is when I'll get my ride assignment.

Really? What happened? Also, hope you get a good ride., but it's probably like CP where you'll end up working a bunch of them.

Nothing, Cedar Point was great and I had a lot of fun working there, but there's more money to be made at Six Flags. I became a Certified Ride Attendant today, going for my operators license sometime this week. This season I will be on the crew of Batman: The Ride. Which is kind of ironic since my friend got Superman, and the two crews are sort of rivals.

I've been here in Disney World since January on the College Program. I'll be going Full-time once my program is completed.

I work at all four parks in Entertainment!

I see no problem in it. However, one little mess-up they should be revoked. With the new regulations of coasters, the ride will not start if not in correct position, or it will not go down the hill. And a flat, i see no problem.
