Because I spent a month at the Magic Kingdom as part of training for a new store opening at Disneyland. I've had experience working at Disneyland, Disney's California Adventure, and all four of the individual kingdoms of Disney World.

If I had to do it all over again, I'd still work for Disneyland. Only because it taught me the valuable lessons of marketing manipulation, that the world is inhabited by idiots, and keeps me a shoe-in on all Disney companies for the rest of my life.

But, there are reasons behind why the job (it's still a job) was horrible. But, if you're lucky, you'll learn those on your own. You're going to work at one of the largest high school drama-infested workplaces ever to gain perspective and maturity? Ha. Nice try.

How do you know working at Disney world in FLordia is a terriable job? My counselors son worked there for 2 years and told me that it was the greatest decision he ever made! Plus im supposed to live with him and his friends when im supposed to go down there...

Im also going down there to gain maturity to help me move on in life...

Working for Disney is like being in the military, but you don't notice that until you've been there a while. You're right, though, it does look good on a resume...if you work for another Disney company after that. It doesn't really help much anywhere else.

When I went for my interview with Disney Internet Group, they enjoyed the fact that I've already worked for a Disney company. It was a nice plus already knowing the company mission statement and purpose. But, it really doesn't help much at any other job.

But, like I said, have fun. Or at least try to, and don't turn into me and the other thousands of bitter ex-Disney employees.

It took my two years to stop doing the Disney point, and a year to stop automatically defending them. Ugh.

As for the rest of you in Florida and California that think Disneyland and Disney World are cool jobs, THEY'RE NOT!!

But, no one listens to me anyway.

Well, the reason why im going to work there is because its a great career start, It will look excellent on my Resume, staying there is Uber cheap, and I get to go to Tech school for free.

Not to mention I get to meet new people. Plus I need to grow up a bit and start living on my own for 5 months...May help me gain maturity in life. Better than joining the fucking military

In 3 months im leaving...

My counselor told me about this program and I already talked to my recruiter and my boss...And next tuesday I will find out for sure when I will be leaving. But according to the fall program, I wont be coming back till January...

I was going to leave June 15th, but I was a little late in filling my application online, which was due May 5th ...

But yeah, im seriously excited about it. Im gonna meet new people, live in awesome Dorms (For some reason, im calling it "The real world" :LOL, Free passes to the park for as long as I work there for me and my family, Awesome benefits, and I can go to College/ Tech school for free...

So to those I told on the internet that I was leaving in 2 weeks, sorry, Im leaving in 3 months now....you have that much time to deal with Master Sajin....

So, what do you think?
