I can't answer questions about Main Entrance because I only know one person who has been trained on Main Entrance, but she works PAC (Parade and Audience Control) now instead. But I can confirm there is no way of having your own bedroom, unfortunately. The closest you'll get is if your...

I do! :thumbsup2 I'm down here now, and this is also my second program. I tell everybody down here to tell everybody they meet what they want to do with their lives--particularly if it pertains to Disney. I have awesome leaders this time around who are more than willing to help me out any way...

On my last program, my parents came to visit over the Veteran's Day holiday. It worked out really well for them work-wise (and my sister was in school so she didn't have to worry about missing class). The biggest advantage of that weekend, though, was that they got to do Mickey's Very Merry...

For me, it's kind of hard to answer that question in typing (and I majored in Creative Writing, so you know it's hard :rotfl:). The two aren't so vastly different that it feels like going to Universal and then Disney, but they aren't mirror opposites of each other, either. And the magic is kind...

That's really useful to know! Thanks! I'd imagine they would be way easier than lugging the bottles of detergent with me everywhere I went. Thanks for correcting me. :goodvibes

I can't give exact dimensions, but on my first day my parents bought me two under-he-bed storage bins (those long-ish flat rectangular ones, I have no idea their dimensions--sorry!) and they both fit easily without any bed risers. You could see them pretty easily under my bed, but I never had...

The dining discount is really good! This was two and a half years ago (November 2010) so I can't guarantee it, but my parents were able to get 60% off their room and discounted dining when they came to visit me on my last program. They saved a lot and it played a huge factor in them coming to...

I wasn't planning on lining up early in the morning like everybody else (I'd actually be pretty happy with Vista!) but this makes me so excited! I might have a shot at Chatham this time. I'm just surprised that it has taken them this long for it.

In addition to what was mentioned, the lifeguards at the All Stars do a little dance party of sorts around 4 everyday when it comes time to change the guards (there was a more formal word for it). You could work at any of the three "hotels" (or themes) as a lifeguard, with I believe Music being...

I had two (but could have easily fit 3) under the bed storage bins. LOVED them! I also had a table top ironing board and used it almost everyday. We kept it in the common area so my roommates could use it, too. My managers were picky about how neat our costume looked, so it was one of the best...

There's a CP bus that takes you to Walmart and Publix (or if you live at Chatham/Patterson and don't mind walking about 10-15 minutes, you can get to Publix without the need of a bus), as well as a bus that takes you to the mall (on my program, it ran once a week, and each month the day that it...

I'm glad I'm not the only one who doesn't/didn't mind the busses much! I didn't have my license yet when I did my last program, so I really liked the newfound extra freedom and mobility that the busses gave me. My experience with them will be a little bit different since I worked at the All...

Not trying to be rude, and I'm not sure how long ago that was, but I worked at Intermission on my last program 3 years ago, and if my managers were picky enough to make sure my ponytail formed itself into a bun on my first day (And subsequently got a little upset with me when I was training a...

Was accepted for Merchandise on March 13. My phone interview was February 25 (I applied February 8) and was pended on February 26. :)

I talked to both of my advisors--the one for my college and the one for my major--before even applying just to ensure that I was going at the right time academically. (Since I'm an English major and all of the classes I'd need to take are offered, miraculously, every semester, it wasn't an issue...

The others have been answered as well as I can answer, but for number 3 I just want to note that one of my roommates was a lifeguard at Blizzard Beach, so it's definitely not uncommon for CPs to get it. Another roommate was QSFB at Typhoon Lagoon, if that helps confirm it any. They were FA CPs...

One of my old roommates got terminated because she accepted a gift from a Guest (money I guess? She worked QSF&B so that can be my only guess). So don't do that. (I was always so paranoid about that, too, but Guests understand when you say, "No thanks!") The two people that I know personally...

Is it the Cupid Shuffle essentially? I caught the most adorable older woman CM doing it my last trip (not my CP but a year after that) and I had to join! So much fun and a really neat way to experience the lights! And I'm a Cincinnati Bearcat so I'm close-ish. Not technically supposed to be a...

It's funny you mention the dancing, because I was going to respond about how awesome working in a resort was, and I actually worked at All Star Music in the food court and LOVED our dance parties! (So much that one of my managers took pictures of my last one for me!) Working at a resort has...

With all the respect in the world, I REALLY wouldn't recommend using Disney's system. I had issues with my direct deposit and all of my paychecks for my first month went onto my payroll card. I had enough money on my debit card to get me through, and I completely forgot about my payroll card and...
