Hi!
I’m an engineer within the federal government. I generally earn less base salary than others with similar experience in the field who choose to work in the private sector, but it works for me.

I don't know how I missed this forum before but it's really an interesting read! I am a Sales Executive with Hilton Grand Vacations at the corporate headquarters in Orlando. I also have a thriving Disney memorabilia store on eBay. And yes, I did work at WDW for 13 years as a restaurant manager. How many members once worked for Disney or are still employed there?

I worked 3 summers at the House of Magic on Main Street (back when it existed) 87-89.

Now I teach music.

I worked for Disney at The Disney Store until this past summer. My "real" job and life itself were getting in the way of my "fun" job, so I had to quit. I was hoping to get back to the store for next Christmas season, but alas, that won't happen.

Some day I will work in Disneyland...some day...

I market properties for a commercial real estate firm in Orlando.

Although I spend most of my time daydreaming about when I'm next going to head over to Disney. I can see Characters in Flight from my office when it's up, taunting me...

Very Happy

I am a former College Program CM at Wide World of Sports and Blizzard Beach who had to grow up and get a real job. I work in college athletics (that counts as real, right?) right now at Oklahoma State University in Stillwater.

Besides the KRAY clan, is there anyone who hasn't worked for the Mouse at some point or another, in some fashion or other?

I run the Lease Administration group for an industrial REIT as well as being responsible for the company's operating statistics to the SEC, etc. Bet you're all wicked jealous right now! Laughing Laughing

I have to ammend that. I've never gotten paid BY the mouse. I sometimes think I have worked to pay the mouse...

I've never worked for them either, although I interviewed when I first moved down from DC.

I do not work for Disney but my employer does handle Disney as an account. Does that count? Confused

Remeber that we're not just trying to find out who has (or had) an affiliation with Disney. We're curious about all our members... Smile

I went and joined the family business and now do accounting and financial planning.

But there was a time, way back when in high school and college, when I was paid by the mouse to wear a blue sweater and juggle beanie babies and greet the folks who came shopping at the local mall. Ah...how I miss that sweater.

Oh yeah, i realize this is a broad discussion, i was just feeling a little left out with so many people mentioning that they had worked for the mouse. Sad

I did work at Harrod's in London, waaay back when. Now that was a fun job. I worked in the adult games department! (chess, backgammon, etc)
