End of Training

Suzette and I finished training in our areas this past weekend, and we've begun to work our regular hour. We are told that we typically get 40-60+ hours per week, but lately we have only seen an average of 30-35. Suzette and I work nights from 7pm-2am, 11pm-5am, or somewhere in between.

This week we both have Tuesday off, and we were able to spend the day in the parks. Here is a video game we created at EPCOT: http://www.thinkingofyoupostcards.com/runtime/play/?Guestcode=KQAQCFT1RMRFSQ



Here is our victory dance.

We spent most of the day at Disney's Animal Kingdom. We rode the safari, everest and the dinosaur ride. Then, we took the resort bus to EPCOT where we played at innoventions, and last we made our way to the Studios to watch Fantasmic (WDW version is L-A-M-E compared to Disneyland).

We're meeting a lot of great new people who are more than willing to help us out by giving us tips on where to live, the best places for discounts, and even job offers/suggestions. I ran into a girl on my break who is going to try her best to get me a job shadow opportunity in an area that I'm really interested in finding a full-time position at. Suzette has been told to seek a full-time position in custodial as soon as she can.

It really seems like all our hard work is beginning to pay off. People here are recognizing our dedication to ethical work. In the next few weeks, we are going to be taking advantage of Disney's educational offerings.

At Develop U, Disney offers online classes about interviewing, resume writing, networking, and more. The Disney University also offers opportunities to learn other languages, but the waiting list is very long.

In the meantime, we will try to upload pictures as soon as possible.
