First Working Day Postcard

Finished first day of work today. Costume makes me look like I should be selling peaches and sunflower seeds on side of road. Awesome. Met my trainers, Paul and Linda. Lovely people. In sixties and working Disney, oh my. Walked around a little bit, feet hurt from yesterday's grand park tour. E-learned about Labor Operations with robots with bad comedic timing. Got assigned to Fairfax Fare with Trainer Linda and fellow CP Frank. Worked register - one Guest, then lunch. Linda made Frank make us salads to take to cast break area. Taco Salad is delicious! And for free! At Take 5 (cast break area) for one hour with other CPs. Back to work, this time on food duty. Learned to not open hot dog buns all the way. Sort of know what goes in salads. Didn't make many though. Had register duty after that. Reminded me too much of retail. Tons of cleaning afterwards. SO much food tossed out :( Reviewed with trainers afterwards. Assessment end of the week - much to learn. Shift ended at 8:00pm. Left 9:30pm. Bus arrived 10:15pm. Talked to family. Alex took picture of me in costume. Ate an apple. Definitely need to update things. But first - sleep.


P.S. - grr for not being able to register for Haunted Mansion tour. I totally nearly missed the bus waiting for it x.x

P.P.S. - I need socks - Disney-approved socks that is :P
