2009 Park Employees

Where is everyone working this year? I added a poll to see which company has the most employees here.

Six Flags Great Adventure, once again. But I'm out of Park Services and in Human Resources now as a Trainer!

Well, I'm not working for SFOG yet... but will hopefully be working by Spring Break when they are open more days and will need more employees. I will add to the poll when I get the job.

ROFL, well of course you're coming back! Tell everyone I said "Hi".

I wish I could say the same, but every year it seems the Bayside spiders are a little bigger, stronger, and smarter. While not my first choice (because of housing), CP is still under consideration. I'm currently trying to get into MiA, but after several yelling matches with their human resources department, it appears 5 years experience with their company isn't good enough for them. I'll know my vote by next month or so.

Thanks Leo. I'm thoroughly enjoying rocking classes of 350 TMs in Showcase Theater, LOL.

well if things work out, and I manage to get off my butt and place a few calls then I'll probably be heading back to Cedar Point, if not then I'm considering going down to Columbus and working at Jungle Jack's Landing, part of the Columbus Zoo...

Here's an update for me; I went to SFOG today to fill out some forms and will be back in May for processing and orientation. I will be a ride host for Skull Island(an attraction I have yet to ride) hopefully in time for its opening when it warms up around here.

I did my orientation today (am I oriented yet?) and do my merchandise/games (backup) training tomorrow afternoon.

After being at the bank all those years, I think I could have basically taught the orientation today.
