Has anyone worked at Disneyland???

[Orko Is King]

If so, how was it?

 

[Batty for Bats!]

I haven't even been to disney world I had such a wasted childhood.

 

[SonOfCthulhu]

If so, how was it?

No, but are you getting a job there? I've got a family vacation to CA and Disneyland planned right after the 4th. I'd love to hear some inside dirt if you are getting hired on. Stuff like what rides lines fill up fastest, where is the best food for the money in the park, etc.

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

damn it, I have no idea where I stumbled upon it, but there's actually a site where a guy is reminiscing about how magical it was when he worked there as a teen ager.
He made it sound like the best job in the universe and told stories of how they'd have special after hours nights for the staff and sneaking into the swamp to make out with fellow employees.

Maybe you should google around for memories of working at Disneyland.

 

[Kritish]

Something tells me it's the perfect hell simulator.

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

yeah, I always felt sorry for the people that work at amusement parks.

1) YAY! You get to watch a bunch of people having a blast, roaming around free to do whatever they want, usually with a ton of money to spend...while you're stuck slaving.

2) I know from the years I worked weekend nights at a movie theater. When people are out to have fun for fun's sake, or on vacation...they get flooded with endorphins and get so "blissed-out" that they become R.E.T.A.R.D.S.

They'll bump into windows, eachother, ask the stupidest questions on Earth, ask you the same question 40 times, etc.

It's similar to what they said in the study where they proved that a woman's I.Q. temporarily drops several points for the next few days after giving birth.

The stress and pain of their miserable lives are over for a while and they just become big, dumb happy morons.

 

[Leto Atrides]

I think it could be a very good or very bad time, depending on what your job specifically is. Ride operator or something would be a good, especially since most of the rides are indoors and air conditioned, etc. Or working in a store as cashier.

Then there's being a janitor.

 

[Erzengel]

My best friend gets that all the time and he's a cop in NY.

Excuse me sir, do you happen to know if it's going to rain today?

There was a restaurant somewhere near here that I ate at 10 years ago, do you know where it is?

Those beat any stupid questions I got jockeying a register at a video store except when the couple asked me if I had x-rated movies with animals.

They wanted zoophilia porn?

 

[Erzengel]

They wanted beastiality. I told them try checking out some of the adult stores on the highway and they were rather insistant that I give them directions.

 

[War Lord]

I did read a newspaper article on one guy's memories of working as Mugli.

One comment that causes me to laugh to this day was what happens to punks who harrass the Seven Dwarves.

Apparently, "Doc" will call out a command and the all the dwarves will surround the punk and "twirl". To the outsiders, it looks as if the seven dwarves are dancing, but in reality, their pummeling the punk half to death with the arms.

hahaha

Reminds me of my friend that works at a hotel. This old lady that was staying there called him up in a panic, "Please, Please sir. Help us. We're lost!!!"
"Okay. Where are you?"
"I don't know!!!"
"Well I mean, are there any buildings that stand out or street signs, so I can give you directions to get you back on course?"
"No."
"Where were you headed?"
"The Space Needle"
"Can you see the Space Needle at all?"
"No!!!!"
"Could you see it when you started out for it?"
"NO!!!!"
"Do you remember which streets you were on while you were headed there?"
"No!!!! PLEASE HELP US!!! I don't know where we are!!!"
"Do you remember when you first noticed that you were lost?"
"No."
"Ummm...."
"Are there any people around?"
"No! No PEOPLE! There's nothing!!!"



I have no idea if he ever got her back to the hotel or if she's just out there roaming the streets to this day.

 

[PLAS]

waitaminute....

you mean, there's people working at disneyland? I always thought it was goofy, donald, and all the other magical characters of dinsey come to life through the magic of voodoo

maybe they were stuck in an elevator and were not aware of it

I worked at Disneyland twice, first when I was 16 and I was Alice in Wonderland for a summer, making minimum wages. Then, later when I was 20 I was working as custodial making $10/hr. Both jobs were fun, but hard. Disneyland treats their "cast members" like dirt because for every one person there are a hundred teenagers willing to take their job for pennies.

Did you have your own personal rabbit to follow you around?

lol The quote of the day

more likely a penguin

 

[ShadowBoxing]

I have a feeling it would be hell--I'd go crazy working at a phony, money grubbing, greedy a$$ brainwashing place like that....thank god I am looking for a job in politics.

 

[Dew k. Mosi]

Yeah, the White Rabbit, the Mad Hatter and I hung out, Occassionally joined by the Queen of Hearts

I'd really hate to think that I am the only one who thinks this is funny.

Where else can you get paid to pummel punks and they can't prove a thing?

Sorry, J. Ont
It did make me chuckle when I read it, but, there is such a glut of humor here, I get lazy.
For instance, If I bothered to type a simple "LOL" every time Erz, Equint, DL, jag, Hollitoven, Daisy, Calvin, etc. made me snicker or chortle audibly, my finger-bones would be worn down to pulp.

It was a gorgeous scenario, happy, dancing dwarves, exacting their revenge.

I just needed to know that I'm loved and my sense of humour still retains a bit of lightness in the midst of absolute darkness.

I don't need to see the doc today, thank you.

 

[Man-Thing]

I worked at Disneyland.

sike

made me laugh.
Of course, my roommate just poked her head in and asked me if I have rent, and that made me laugh to. LOL
