    Default What job would you have the most fun with?

    I was just sitting here reading different Disney posts on a cpl of different sites. And as will sometimes happen, i got a random thought.

    I would like to work for Disney corp in an Anti-Terrorism type job (its what Ibasically do in the Army). But I had this random thought of how much FUN it would be to work as the person who lets folks into the Haunted Mansion. Yeah I know its a Min Wage job (or really close). But I would love to go over the top for it. I think it would be cool to to a little bit of make up and get a bigger size uniform and play the part as a hunchback like Igor from frankenstein or something. Do a bit of an accent with it, walk with a dead leg so i have to shuffle. I think I would have a lot of fun with it.

    Anyone else have an Idea of a job they would find fun to do? special costumes are optional

    Being one of the servers at 50s Prime Time at DHS (never worked in a restaurant so I'd probably drop all the food). I think it would be a lot of fun joking around with the customers.

    I'd love to be security in the guard shack at POR who tells everyone ... Welcome Home !!

    I know that would be a boring job, but it's not like I haven't spent hours upon hours of my life at a guard shack before....and I didn't welcome anyone with "welcome home" words !! Random security strolling the parks would be fun too !!

    I would love to be the entertainment at Ft Wilderness for Chip n Dale's campfire and movie at night. I imagine playing the banjo, and my wife leading the sing a long. Then, we'd get to ham it up with two of my fave characters. I have had so much fun at the campfires since I was very young, and I would love to be able to share that with other guests.
    This one will probably never happen (neither of us can play or sing, LOL), but its a great imaginary retirement

    when i worked there, i always said i wanted to be the "answer man". Just dress in a guest services costume and walk the parks, helping anyone who needed it and giving out magic moments all day.

    I would LOVE to be a wedding planner or special moments/celebrations planner. There's a team for those things... getting engaged, getting married, telling a special secret while on vacation...

    or making the surprise baskets that people order to have delivered and waiting on their arrival.

    that job would be and I wouldn't care how much (or how little) it paid. I'm assuming that I'm living 100% debt free, kids college is paid off, house paid off, etc.

    That would be my ideal job, too!! Or one of the caboose safety people either on the Railroad at MK or any of the parking lot trams.

    From the frustrated bus/tourist perspective, I would love to run the transport centre in the evening ~ I'm sure I could do a better job than the director!!

    My retirement is set. I want to work either at the MK handing out stickers to guests or at the WL pool area doing recreation. My family laughs but I keep telling them I am going in 10 years with or without them!

    I would love to be one of the princesses! I am a mom of three boys and I have always wanted a girl. I think it would be awesome to be Cinderella and get to see all the little girls faces when they meet her! Of course I could totally see myself working in POC since I am a pirate at heart!

    I would be a maid at HM, work in the libraries or Disney archives, or be a tour guide in the parks.
