2008 Job Projections

What are your plans for the 2008 Amusement Park Season? Are you looking for a first time seasonal job? Are you contining your year-round position? Are you looking for a new position within your company?

My sister applied for the 2008 Spring WDW program. Unbelievably she just got a notice in the mail today saying it will be another 4 weeks before she will be told if she is even accepted.

I personally just finished up my 4th season at Cedar Point working from March 7th until November 16th. It was a very long season but I had a lot of fun. I also met a girl down there and I'm moving to Texas with her. We are looking for apartments in Arlington and I'm looking for a job at (you guessed it) Six Flags Over Texas. If anyone has any information or experiences about the SFoT staff I'd appreciate it.

So what do you plan to do for next year?

If I didn't live too far away from Castles N' Coasters, I'd Probably apply there, despite not fitting in with the Ghetto crowd...

Nevermind that idea, probably the grocery store.

I will continue to work at Disney World until Jan 17th when i set sail for a year on the Disney Cruise Line.

My plan is after the cruise line i would love to work a season at Disneyland Paris but thats a long shot. More than likely i'll go back to Disney World.

You have to go back to CP next year. It would be awesome to see you again at CP Kelly if i make it up there next year. It's been since Coastermania 2003 i think.

I don't get free cruises but we get one heck of a discount. something like 75% off i think. It's a huge discount.

I most likely will be back at Disney World in 2009 so maybe you can come down then.
