Description
Ever since my first visit to Disneyland Park in the spring of 1977, I have had Disney in my blood. Over one-dozen roadtrips to Walt Disney World and 6 trips to Disneyland later, I still worship the mouse! My lifelong dream was always to work at Walt Disney World. In the summer of 1997, I realized that dream. For 15 months, I was a server at Epcot's Canadian pavilion. I took the opportunity to work at various locations across Property, visit the parks many times a week, participate in the grand opening telecasts of Disney's Animal Kingdom, watch Illuminations (practically) nightly, and so much more!
It truly was the greatest experience of a lifetime, as you can imagine. It also gave me a great inside look at how the parks operate behind the scenes, and talk to the Cast Members responsible for all of the Disney magic. More importantly, I got the chance to work and live with a great group of people. One of them, a wonderful Welsh girl named Kelly, was foolish enough to fall for me! Our wedding was on June 6, 2001!
Being Canadian, I could not stay past the 15 month duration of my work visa, so I decided join the Disney Wonder as part of her Maiden Crew. I joined the ship in Venice and was lucky enough to be a part of a great team and a great launch. For 8 months, over a contract and a bit, I worked as a Dining Room Server and Service Excellence Coach. It was an interesting experience, to say the least, and allowed me to see an entirely different side of the Company.
