Marathon Weekend 2024

SAFD: As tempting as it is to say the person in charge of runDisney in order to try to fix their IT department and many of their other problems, I’d opt instead to sit in for Kathleen Kennedy. Andor and Ahsoka not withstanding, Star Wars needs some serious help in their storytelling and film & TV departments.
Oh hell no, you couldn’t pay me to make decisions for Lucasfilm. No matter what you do, people hate you. 🤣
 

SAFD: Only a week? I wouldn't want a high-up job, just because the next guy is probably going to undo anything I try to install, anyway. I'd probably just want to work at The Emporium or MouseGears (or whatever they call it now) for the week. I just want to see all the smiling faces from the kids and their parents.
 
SAFD:

Good Morning runDisney All-Stars! Hope you have had a good week, For today’s question - If you could have any job in the Disney Company for one week, what would you want to do?

My answer - I would love to be a tour guide, taking small groups of people around the parks, talking about the history, showing areas people don’t normally see and in general sharing the magic of the parks for a few hours or a whole day. I think it would be very rewarding. Have a good week all!
Getting to teach kids science in the Oceaneer's club on the DCL. Actively considered it at low points in grad school.
 
SAFD: I would LOVE to sell balloons on Main Street if they weren't so expensive. I would be too embarrassed to ask those prices. I'd also love to be a Dapper Dan, but I'm a woman and I can't sing. So...I gotta think about this. Maybe I'll figure it out by the time Marathon Weekend 2024 rolls around, maybe not.

Hmmm.
Iger’s job so I could fix all that needs fixing at Disney.
Chief ride tester, especially roller coasters…
An Imagineer, which I seriously looked into when I was younger, but there wasn't much of it in Florida at the time.

(found the edit control, which I hadn't seem before....)

Oops. Dropped the phone.
I have seriously in the past looked into being an Imagineer.
Maybe I’ll move down and do it as a retirement job. Or be a monorail driver.
You know you can edit a post to fix mistakes instead of creating a new one, right? Just asking because there've been a few times you've created a new post to fix things after a mishap with an initial posting and I can't tell if it's intentional or you don't know about the edit feature.

They‘re called monorail pilots. I know this because a good friend of mine used to have this job, and he got very annoyed when I would refer to him as a monorail driver. Apparently it used to be a lot more fun before Disney automated most of the job.

I don't know about the edit feature, but I do now.
Just hadn't noticed it before. Thanks.
