Re: When you retire, which WDW job would you rather have?

I voted for the resort front desk. I guess that's just the dorky part of me that loves the hospitality industry. I find stuff like that neat.

Re: When you retire, which WDW job would you rather have?

If I'm retired and I still want to work I had better be sitting down. After chasing kids for so many years my feet will need a break. So my vote is for the monorail.

Re: When you retire, which WDW job would you rather have?

Having worked at a hotel when I was younger I would have to go with Resort Front Desk clerk. I really enjoyed the interaction with the public.

Re: When you retire, which WDW job would you rather have?

I had to vote for Fantasyland Ride Operator. I couldn't imagine getting to work in the Magic Kingdom every day and getting to see the excitement and joy of scores of kids riding classics like Dumbo, the Teacups, or the Pooh ride for the first time. Talk about viewing the 'MAGIC' everyday!!!

Re: When you retire, which WDW job would you rather have?

I voted other as well.
Hubbie said he would like to do either film/photography or be a character.
Id like to work in the baby center, I really like being able to help parents and kids.

I want to work in a park. I want to be the old guys making kids laugh and swatting the little ones acting up.
