In your opinions, what rides/areas were/are the most fun to work?
And what are the crappiest?

Just wanting others' opinions...I'm actually thinking of transferring to another land!
Thanks guys. :)

I like my job in Show Services....I work the entire resort. I love not being stuck in the same place all the time. :)

I'm in vending. When you are in the N.O. area you can watch fantasmic and the fireworks at night. Also, all the carts in that area are busy. It makes the time go faster, which makes me happy.

What about Tomorrowland? I loved working Space the best. Then Splash and Mansion and Indy

Hey IndyBob--I accidentally deleted my Tomorrowland and Main Street options as I made my poll...and since people have voted already, only an administrator can edit it. POOH. Won't be making that mistake again.

Everyone's cool to post, but since this was moved to the Break Room, I was trying to get everyone's opinions about the Disneyland Resort. ;)

SweetAurora, this thread was moved because the park forums are specifically for the posting of stupid guest tricks. All other topics, no matter if they relate to a theme park or not belong in the break room. Organizing the posts this way helps keep the site focused on what it was originally started for.
How could you group Main Street and Tomorrowland together? Main Street is shit and Tomorrowland is cool.

Back in the stone age when I worked there, they grouped my department (New Orleans/Bear-Critter Country) with Adventureland/Frontierland a few years before I quit so it was one big happy dept. (yeah, right). Honestly, it was a great department to work in. I wouldn't rate it as no drama though...when Splash was new and breaking down a dozen times a day, it was a bitch. Plus we used to have 4 queues on Pirates, so during the summers, you'd stress big time when we had max capacity days - trying to group maximum loads on every boat is wearying after a few weeks. The summer I worked Pirates we set an hourly record of 3,910 guests through the ride. If I remember correctly, theoretical capacity was around 3,200. There was also a lot of drama when Fantasmic was new and people were getting into fist fights over viewing positions. I think that we had the best people, management and leads at the time for the most part...at least until 95 when I quit...lol. We had the best rides. We had the best locations for playing practical jokes on fellow CM's (nothing like throwing one of your co-workers into the water in front of a docking Jungle boat fully loaded with unsuspecting guests). There wasn't all that much left in Tomorrowland - they'd gotten rid of Skyway, Mars and America Sings, so there were all these buildings not doing anything but working as temporory office/break space. The management were jerks in Fantasyland/Toontown. Tomorrowland and Main St. were too close to the old Admin. building, therefore, the big wigs so you had to be a bit more careful about what you were doing (ahem). The only good thing about being on the East side was the short walk back to lockers after your shift was done. But then, you'd have to wait extra until it was time to clock out, so it didn't make all that much difference unless the lines were huge at costuming...

that is where you are wrong, has anyone seen the Save Tomorrow land thing on savedisney.com it's really bad how thing are over there, i'm glad i'm old enough to have seen it before it got ugly... i try and avoid TL these days, it isn't very invitng, i'd rather it be less cluttered, and more like the artist's concept found in the Casting Center.... sigh
