I Want To Work At Disney!!

[wdwfann]

OK, my wife and I discussed this pipe dream a little more today.

You never know until you try something, so I'm going to check around into taking tap dance lessons--that's part of the audtion process for a Dan--and I'm going to give it a shot.

I won't audition this time since I will not have had any tap lessons or skill, but I'm gong to try for it. I had rather audition once (or twice or three times) and get shot down then to look back later and say "I wonder what would have happened if......."

I think this is WONDERFUL!! Good Luck
My DH and I are in our early 40's. I have taught school for 20years. We have always said when our boys go to college (about 8 years) we are going to retire and go to work at Disney. Your courage spurs me on to realize my own dreams one day!! Keep us all posted on how things go.

I have been telling my family for years that I want to retire to Florida and be a little old lady in costume in a (nice air conditioned) Disney gift shop. After my last trip I told my girlfriend that I think I changed my mind....I want to be an MGM Streetmosphere performer!!

grr....little chance of that though......lol

I would much rather work at a low paying job that I loved than a high paying job that I hated/disliked/tolerated.

Amen to that! I left a business that I built from nothing and loved to take a higher paying job, and I am so unhappy there.

To the OP, go for it! It sounds like you know exactly what you want, and that's fantastic! I wish I was that clear on what my dream job is

Call me crazy, but I want to work at Disney. And not just any job---I want to be one of the Dapper Dans on Main Street.

I always wanted to do it when i retire. I'm just afraid that it will take from our extreme love and excitement of the parks.

I think everyone on the Dis deep down wants to work at Disney.

I personally would love to work at a resort's concierge desk or be a professional planner for Disney. Wouldn't know where to get started on that career track, but one can dream.
