Ok so last night was a surprise. You may be wondering why this post has the Mission: SPACE logo in it. Well, I was originally off yesterday. I ran some earns around Orlando and ended my afternoon at Epcot looking from Kimmie Sue to set up a meeting with her and to visit my friend Joe a work. Joe works as a Coordinator in Futureworld East (Spaceship Earth, Universe of Energy, Wonders of Life, Mission: SPACE and Test Track). Well, yesterday was the Extra Magic Hour Evening for Epcot and Mission: SPACE was short staffed I guess and I got talked in to working a seven hour shift at the attraction.
I wanted to do attractions when I applied to start on the college program so it was a blast. Since I am not fully trained on the attraction, I was limited to greeter and grouping positions. I still had a blast and it made me think about what my future at WDW might include if a role in Guest Relations was not to work out. I might consider a transfer to an attraction like Mission: SPACE or Soarin’ or even apply for opening crew for Expedition everest which is coming to Animal Kingdom in January. But, as much as it would be fun, Guest Relations would be my top choice and the direction I want to move.
