Yeah seriously, I'm still pissed at that HuffPost guy. He even asked me permission, I said no, and he DID IT ANYWAY....

Anyway, on to your question. My favorite thing about the job is when I legit make someone's day. Not a lot of jobs give you that opportunity to firsthand make someone really happy. Occasionally, I get managers giving me certificates that basically say someone was so happy with my help, they actually went to City Hall and told them I was awesome. Imagine how much of an impact someone has to make for you to actually go out of your way like that.

As for dislike... Annual Passholders. God, I wish they'd go away. Tourists are like perfect people who think Disneyland is a magical place where nothing bad happens. AKA ideal guests to help. Annual Passholders, though, feel entitled and most are plain rude to us.

Funny stories, I have plenty. But I'll hold off on those for this comment to not make it too long. I'll probably have a few for other comments haha

Oh my god. Thats hilarious. But no, god no. Do you know how many lawsuits that'd set us up for?

Nah, if anyone shoplifts, we just call security and tell them. Security usually follows up to Anaheim PD, and when the guest leaves, the cops are there. But thats if we see you shoplift. If we dont see you do it, youre pretty much clear.

I'm in stores, not a character, so I wouldn't know. But I do know personality-wise, the face characters tend to be more stuck-up than the fuzzy characters.

Well, for me personally, I take the bus to work. Then I have to go through security to get backstage. After that, I walk to my check-in location (not necessarily where I'm working). I can clock in up to five minutes early; after clock in, everyone else scheduled that time in that general area, we all get a "check in". Basically a powerpoint presentation telling us park hours, show times, etc. Then I get to go to work haha. I think its pretty self explanatory, nothing too crazy.
