I am crazy busy! And I'm done with training!!

Since I have last written, the hurricane didn't even rain on Orlando, I have completed my training and have officially earned my ears as an official Disney cast member. I have learned proper sizes of everything, cook times, holding times, how to work the clocking in systems, and so much more! I "learned" how to take apart (and put back together) the fryer, the ice cream machine, slushie machine, and the whipped cream machine. The reason I put quotes around learned is because my trainer was new and everything I took apart, with the exception of the fryer, had to be fixed. I get that he is new, but during my assessment when I thought I knew all the right answers, I didn't. He taught it to me wrong so I looked like I didn't know what I was talking about.

Today was the last day of training!! That's the good news. Here is the bad: the schedule that everyone told me to go off of, told me to show up at 1pm. I got a call at my apartment from a manager asking where I was because I was really supposed to be there at 11am!! I was mortified!! I get that I am an adult and that I should know what I am doing and how to read a schedule. The good that came out of this is that I am new and didn't know any better because everyone above me didn't tell me that I may or may not have another shift other than my assessment today. I am just really glad that I don't get any points off, and if I do it will only be a half of a point.

Tomorrow is my first day on my own and I am working in Fantasyland! I love that land because I create magic everyday! I know that sounds corny, but this is why I wanted this job in the first place. I love seeing families experiencing the magic of Disney. I am going to work super early tomorrow so that I can hit up costuming and get to work early! I am so glad that I don't have to wash my own costumes! Until next time...
