i agree with both posts above...


i also don't think it's worth it...and having worked in a fast-food place before you will be sick of it very fast! and $6.75 isn't worth it.

They do those sign ups at my college every semester. Of the people I have talked to that have gone, the vast majority said they found it to be worthless. Just letting you know.

I would grab the opportunity and not think twice about it.

College will always be available but an opportunity to work in the Magic Kingdom does not appear very often. If I was offered something like that at DisneyLand, I would definitely do it.

The opportunity to work in a world that celebrates youth, imagination, and dreams come true is the greatest opportunity you'll ever get.

This is a gift from fate, allowing you four more precious months of happiness before you sumbit to the darkness of higher education. Please do not turn it down.

Actually it's a world that celebrates homophobia and corporate greed.

I'd say pass on it. College is more important then a $6.75/hour job at Disney World since you have to put everything else on hold

While most of the people I have talked to who have done it say that it was a horrible experience. I do know someone that loved it. She liked it so much that she has decided to return (she is there this semester) and has been promoted to being Mickey Mouse. It all comes down to whether you think it is right for you.

I wouldn't do it though.

If I said that two of my best friends are also going, would that change your views?

Two good friends certainly helps, but I still wouldn't do it. I've taken a semester off of college to pursue some other things, and I now I regret being a term behind...

Your situation is different from mine, but I still wouldn't take a $6.75 job just to go to Disney World...If you still want to do something like this you could probably get the same or hopefully better job after school is finished.

What you should really be asking is, "how is this going to affect my career?" How can you write it on your resumes to show that you have the skills for your required dream job? It would appear best on a job application that involves a lot of interaction with people, I think. Keep that in mind.
