I've become a Cast Member!!!!

Post by TomMorrow » Wed Oct 28, 2009 10:48 am

I live too far away to work at any of the parks. So I did the next best thing, I applied for work at my local Disney Store. I'm starting out as a seasonal part-time CM. (I also have a regular 8-5 full time job.) Hopefully, I can make it past the holiday season to be a permanent part-time CM.

It may not be as good as working in the parks, but it'll do for now.

Congratulations!

It's been 20 years since I was a store CM (my goodness how is that possible? I was such a baby then *sniff*) but it's still the only job I've ever had that I really miss. (I live too far away from the parks to work in them either even if I was healthy enough. If I was you can bet I'd relocate!)

Have fun bringing pixie dust to your guests. It's a job like no other, even in the stores, it's special. Like most things in life, it is as you make it. (That's what our Traditions trainer told us).

Make it great.

Congrats!

Time to change your status.

Definitely have fun.

Oh, does your ID include park admission when you visit? Strange question, but I am curious and honestly don't know.
