Attention all Ride Ops!

I'll second that.

I will be a manager at SFEG this summer. It will be my second year and I will be in North Park, the area between the entrance of the park and the bridge by Tower of Doom. This will be my second year at the park. Last year I was a ride operator/trainer.

Well, by the time I'm doing that again, Top Thrill Dragster will be downgraded to a kiddie coaster...

This will be my fourth and probably final season at SFEG, which is still Elitch's to me.
Mustang, it's more fun to name all of the rides: Big Wheel, Hollywood and Vine, Chaos, Turn of the Century, Teacups, Spider, Troika, Sidewinder, Disaster Canyon, Flying Coaster, Mind Eraser, and Batwing.

This will be my second year at Six Flags Worlds Of Adventure, and as always, if you find me, I've got a prize for you! I should be working into an ATL spot at the park this summer.

Oh well, so what rehire fair are you going to? Im going to March 8.

I'm a stalker! Actually, I have homework to do, proctrastination is a hobby of mine.
I guess I'm going to the one on the 8th, I haven't looked at the packet in awhile so I have no idea what's going on.

I was a previously employed at CP for 4 years in various divisions, even cash control, but last year I worked Cedar Downs, Ocean Motion, Peanuts Playground, Mantis, Raptor and Millenium.

I will miss it but the hours are just too much.

I worked at Six Flags America for two seasons. I worked Superman, Roar, Mind Eraser, Tower of Doom, Great Chase, Renegade Rapids, etc etc etc.

Some parts of the job were fun, but others were not - long hours, hot sun, stupid guests, lost hair weaves.

LOL....lost hair weaves...brings me back to high school. Well now they have superglue....so if that weave is ripped out...you bet some scalp is coming with it :)

Welcome to Planet Nupe!

I don't see a problem as long as you don't let anything slip. I have worked in the business for a while and I never actually knew what we were getting until it was being put up and was all but announced. I hear more about other parks than my own.

Lagoon Park 1999 - 8/2001 Area 3A & 4B Ride Operator and Crew B, Crew C, & Crew D Operator. Cedar Point 8/2001 - 10/2001 VertiGo/Ripcord Crew Operator and Halloweekends Costumed Character. Lagoon Park 2002 Area 4 Crew Lead Lagoon Park 2003 Area 4 Supervisor.

Sometimes those of us in lower and middle management are privy to information. As part of my employment agreement, I must keep all of that information confidential and it cannot be discussed outside of management meetings. I have no intention of ever releasing any information I come upon, because it’s not my place to speak. Simple As That.

I am currently fifteen so I can work at a park this year but next year I will try to get a job at my local amusement park seabreeze.

I'm in my 4th and possibly my final year at Hersheypark. Last year I worked pretty much wherever they wanted to put me, and that will probably stay the same this year.

X you should have a great season working at Great America. I work there and it is great. You should find out where you work soon.

I second that one Icarus, im also in the positon of recieving that type of info. But i don't let it slip at all, i won't say a word until it the park makes it offical.

I'm going to be working at the point this summer. I can't wait, T-61 days till I start.

I heard that my kiddie coaster is fun to run, but knowing my luck, it'll be a total pain.
