    Default If you could work for Disney ....

    If you could work for Disney, which job would you choose?

    I was just thinking how great it could be to work for Disney. I am not sure what I would want to be... I suppose I could do something in their IS department (programmer - carreer choise); however, I think I would rather be a CM that could get to make someones vacation a dream come true. Such as the one who picks the family of the day. That would be so great!

    Hmmm... maybe a person in Guest Relations in a park - preferably MK or EPCOT. They seem to always be able to make peoples' day! (Giving buttons, getting people ressies, etc). You would get the park atmosphere daily too.

    I would looooooooove to work at the Poly. Front desk, Kona Cafe, where ever....I would work it. The idea of getting to walk around the grounds after work and listen to the music seems soooo nice.

    This is a good question and one that we tossed around on our last trip.

    I think I'd like to be in a parade. One of the walking/dancing people. But, I would more likely be better suited to be a personal tour guide or a group guide or Keys to the Kingdom guide... Oh! The Segway tour would be fun, too!

    I know some people may come along and say they would like to work Haunted Mansion or Pirates, but I could not stand to be in the dark all that time. Give me some sunshine!

    Hmmm, I've debated this with DH before and I have to say that I'm not sure. Realistically, I'm an RN so my best option would be to put that to use in First Aid. However, if I were to step away from that, I think I'd want to maybe work retail in one of the parks. I worked retail to put myself through college and I liked it. Otherwise, I think I might like to be a character - possibly even a villian.

    I worked in tickets back in 1990 on the Fall WDWCP and loved it, I sometimes sold tickets at the TTC and sometimes stamped the date on tickets at the MK Turnstiles. Just seeing everyone all excited to go into the MK everday was so much fun. I would love to go back and do that again or maybe be in Guest Relations at the MK, however, I'm not a big fan of their costume they have to wear!

    Hmm great question! I would love to work at the writers stop at DHS if I couldn't do that I would like to sell ice cream! I know its not physically possible because of my back but I think it would be a great job.

    Also since I am dreaming I would love to be the Fairy Godmother!

    I would like to be at the Check in desk or gift shop of one of the resorts. I'd be more likely to be the one at the end of the ride, telling folks to "take small children by the hand...."

    Wedding coordinator or front desk in one of the deluxe hotels...perhaps in the office...I wouldn't want to be in the Parks...that's for having fun...not for work.

    I'm a store manager for a major nationwide retailer, my plan is to retire at 57 and go run any one of the stores at Disneyworld, doesn't matter which one as long as I get to enjoy the parks and guests on a daily basis.

    I currently work at Disney, and absolutely love my roles (I'm a seasonal character attendant, and currently work at the Great Movie- going fulltime in May!). I couldn't ask for a better place to work

    As boring as this may sound, I would love to work in corporate headquarters, accounting. I streamline processes by trade, tax/systems analyst by education. It would be so much fun to learn the financials of Disney. Plus I could fish all year from a boat, not on hard water for three months out of the year!!

    I used to tell my former boss that he'd miss me when I was gone and I was running WDW's payroll dept! That way I wouldn't be jaded and working IN the parks. They'd still be fresh and exciting. If I've got to do payroll, I'd like to do it somewhere fun.

    I've always wanted to work at the Walt Disney World Library & Research Center. To me, that would just be way too amazing.
