There are many CM's that post here that can give you assistance on finding a job at WDW! They could probably also recommend housing.
I think putting your son in charge of your carreer development and management is probably a really good idea!

As they say on The Price is Right "Come on down!!!"
;) I made that decision at a very early age as well.

Whenever people in the parks ask where I am from I answer "here". That always throws them off.

Tim, there is always a need for bus drivers. :D:
If you can learn to tolerate MiMs, that is.

I'm almost 42 and have been say this for years now, sounds like a smart kid to me. If I could convince my GF to move with me I would be there in a heartbeat. My biggest problem is being able to survive, while I would love to work in attractions I know it doesnt pay enough, can someone pm me the starting rate for a bus driver? I figure 12 years driving tow trucks i can handle a bus.

You could always apply to Safaris. You would drive and they pay you a dollar more an hour because of the nature of the attraction. You could always ask BW for more info. I'd be glad to give you more info on the general application process.

OMG you have not heard the low cost Disney housing have you? Disney employees can rent out a Tepee at DLR for $250 shared with 3 others or they can live in the dungeon of the Castle at WDW for $600 a month for a 2 cell which is big enough for a family of 6.

Safaris would be even better than the busses, I would have a blast working it, like JC in a truck, let me know the starting rate. I have also considered photopass since I'm 3 units away from a degree in fine and applied arts which is mostly photography.
I have a driver that has teepees, can I bring my own and just set it up nearby? Does anyone have a closet they want to rent me for $100.00 a month? all i need is internet access.
