Where would u all work if u choose to wrk at the city? myself, either fire n the hole, or b a robber on the train ride. i think it would b so cool to wrk there, but i liv n kansas city and tht would b a big change. i still think about doing it alot tho, lol

I want to be a performer! Any job on the stage is good for me! Or maybe I could work in a craft shop and crochet, since I already make and sell blankets and scarves, etc... I might as well sit at SDC all day and do what I already do now!

This might not seem quite so glamorous but I'd like to do maintenance.  Fix lights, work on the intercom/phones, etc. Walk around the park talking on the 2 way radio about what's broke down now. It's sort of what I do now so I think I could slide right in to it.  ;D

I'd probably make a fair cave guide.

If you mean with the knowledge that I have now, i would probably work with larson.  i think that would very interesting keeping things "moving"....

If you mean that I "learn" a craft,,  I think the knife maker or the blacksmith either one, or even leather craftsman...

Since most of my work experience has been in retail or food service, that's probably where I would be best suited.  But if you ask my 13 year old son where he would like to work at SDC, he'd probably say director of park operations (he has lots of ideas) or to drive the train.

I would love to put my teacher skills to work during the Kids Fest!  I would also like to work at the turnstiles.  I have my greeting prepared, and I practice on my husband when we're in the car.  He thinks I'm pretty good.

Park Emergency Medical Technician ( EMT) might as well stay with what I'm good at!!!

I always liked working at Flooded Mine, American Plunge was OK, Grandfather's Mansion was OK, but I never got to be a robber/conductor at the train, and always thought that would be fun. I like the idea of working a greeting line at the Hospitality House, or working over at McHaffie's Homestead as a living history character. Working with Parson at the Wilderness Church also appeals to me. If I could make up my own dream job, it would include spending a little time each week at the places mentioned, but also producing written material for publication that could be sold in gift shops...like a history of the hewn log historical structures on the park, or picture books featuring lost rides and attractions like the stagecoach, rainmaker, float trip, diving bell, and so on. I'd even consider being an area manager for attractions, helping to manage several of the attractions. One thing is for certain, I'd have to spend at least part of each day dressed in costume and entertaining folks on park.

My everyday outfits are usually inspired by SDC, but I try to make it not-so-obvious. Most of my outfits, I think you would have to know a lot about the City before you could pick up what some my outfit stands for.

I would be happy working just about anywhere doing just about anything in the park. :) But my top two would be cave guide (I had a tour guide job in college and I loved it) or the Train (but I don't see them letting a girl be Conductor or Bowlin).

I think working in security would be a pretty interesting job.  A person would get to see a lot of behind the scene stuff.

Given my railroad hobbies and my reenacting, I want to work the Model 1841 6 pounder when I'm not the train engineer!

I wouldn't want to work in management necessarily, but I would love to work in park operations. Overseeing the park activities, and improving existing elements, while working hard to come up with new ones. Running the "nuts, and bolts" of the park would be awesome!

I think loading and unloading riders on the new coaster for 2013 would be an awesome job.  On opening day the facial expressions and reactions would be priceless  :).

I say they give us at least a year and we could be the two train robbers ;)
