I was scheduled to work from 4:45 to 10:45, which is an awesome shift because I go in late but I don't stay until an ungodly hour. The beginning of the day was kinda rough though. I got up at around 10:30, took a shower, and did some stuff around the apartment. I started thinking about home and how much I miss little things, like my mom playing her music really loudly as she cooks or my sister's sugar glider, which I've never even liked. Thinking about stuff like that made me get really emotional and I swear, that's becoming a bi-weekly thing for me. I even almost contemplated calling in to work because I felt like I wouldn't be able to keep myself together throughout the day. But then I decided that work would take my mind off of home, I need the money, and I don't need the point. So I pulled myself together and got on the bus to work.
Once I got there, I looked at my schedule and it said that I had a meeting to go to but it didn't say where it was or anything. I asked my coordinator what the meeting was for and where it was, and it turns out it was a CP welcome session. I thought it was a little strange for me to attend a welcome session since I've been here for more than a month now, but I won't argue with being paid to attend a meeting. It was only about an hour long and some people just went over what the college program has to offer, how they got started, and what we can do with the company in the future. I liked it only because it reminded me of why I started working for Disney in the first place; because Disney actually wants their guests to get everything they can out of their vacation and more.
After the meeting, I went back to CDS and got an assignment. It was a really easy day so I won't go into specifics about what happened, but my first assignment was to go on break for fifteen minutes, then I had to be Casey's busser for fifteen minutes to break someone, then I worked in Hub West for a while and then I did a trash run at Town Square Theater. Throughout this time I watched both of the Electrical parades, Celebrate the Magic, and Wishes since the crowd was too thick to do anything. It was kind of funny because during the parade a float broke down, I think it was Mr. Smee's, and the whole parade stopped for a little less than ten minutes. Snow White and the dwarfs were in front of me and it was funny just to watch Snow White dance around in circles over and over again when Snow White was probably thinking, "What is going on?" throughout the whole thing.
After the parade at one point I happened to walked around Casey's Corner and Chrissy was there! She had a friend with her and we talked for a little bit, then Chrissy suggested we take a photo together since I was in my costume. My hair is doing something weird in this picture, but here it is!
My last assignment was to pick up Hub East and it was so easy. I did a trash run that took probably twenty minutes and then I went back to CDS. At this point, it was 10:00 and I didn't want to get a new assignment because I didn't want to close anything else with so little time left in my shift. Instead I asked my manager if I could help anyone else close a zone and she sent me to Casey's Corner. Everything was done but I stayed in that area for about twenty minutes anyway. When I went back to CDS, I put my radio away, washed out my pan and broom, and went downstairs. That was pretty much my day.
When I got home from work, Erin, Chrissy and I decided to go to Denny's, which is becoming a thing of ours, and we talked for a long time. Me, Chrissy, and her friend have decided to go to Magic Kingdom before work tomorrow so I'm looking forward to that!
Overall, the day went much better than I had anticpated! It probably helped that I love doing streets.
