Oh my gosh Epcot!
So...
slight confession, I totally wanted Hollywood Studios... BUT, seeing as
though there is so little that I know of Epcot, I'm totally excited to
learn more!
Orientation day was UH-MAZING.
Chris,
the cast member that gave the orientation was *so* funny and great, he
really loves his job and it shows! A lot of the day was protocol stuff
about insurance and safety rules, but the welcome team really went above
and beyond to get us all excited about our new roles.
For our lunch break, we were taken under Magic Kingdom to the cast member Mouseketeeria. (I
am in love with these punny names) We got to eat beside all the other
cast members, along with some of my favorite Disney characters! Taking
the "underground" shortcuts through Magic Kingdom had always been a
weird dream of mine. I'm so glad to be able to scratch that off my
bucket list!
People
had 'warned' me about working for Disney, saying that the magic goes
away once you know the secrets... I feel that the only thing better than
being witness to the magic, is being part of it.
Mickey
even came by later in the day to present us with our official Disney
name tags! It was priceless to see full of grown adults jumping up and
down with excitement when he walked into the room. :)
In the end, Disney's message was simple.
"We create Happiness"
I could only hope to be able to provide families with the same happy memories that all these cast members gave me as a child.
I start my training for my specific role tomorrow, and officially start at the park on Friday.
So. Much. Excitement!
