Hey guys, I hate to start another topic on role, but I haven't heard from many who have actually had it (just those who are going to be doing it!). How is it? Where were you placed? What are the shifts like?

I was a ‘full service food and beverage’ intern in Fall 2006. It took me forever to find information on the role before I went- so I understand completely. I worked at Old Key West at Olivia’s. I started out as a seater- meaning, I would get a ticket with a family name and a table number and I took them to their table. After a week or so of that, I was trained as the ‘assigner’. In this role, I worked on the computer, greeted guests and got their information, and assigned their table. Basically, this meant that the servers blamed me if they felt they weren’t getting the “good” tables or that I had skipped them. It’s really just working with personalities- and I loved it. I typically worked 3 pm to close (11 pm).

Since my location was the same kitchen as quick service- I cross-trained to work there. And I also worked Bell Services. And just to make things more complicated- the resort I worked in was associated with Saratoga Springs and Port Orleans. During a busy time, a bunch of the CPs at OKW went to work at those locations. In one week, I had to wear 6 different costumes. I constantly had the costuming ladies confused!!

Let me know if you have any other questions!

Thanks for the help :)

I just have another question, was it difficult to learn the seating system? That's what I'm more nervous about.

Also, did you have friends in FSFB? Where were they placed?
