Anyway, today was my last day at Tomorrowland Terrace. Redd Rockett's Pizza Port is open tomorrow, so I'll be back there unless they randomly schedule me at TLT in the future. It's a possibility, since I'm trained there now. I keep forgetting to take a picture of myself in costume so that you guys can see it, but I remembered to take one this morning.
Here's my costume for Tomorrowland Terrace:
My hand was shaky, so I had to hold it with both hands. But yeah, that's what I have to wear every day. I can't decide which I like better: TLT's or Pizza Port's costume. I'll let you be the judge of that when I get around to posting a picture of that one. I don't have a picture of it, otherwise I'd post it now. Be kind, people. Clearly it was the '80s or '90s when these costumes were designed. I can't see any future where these might be worn.
Everyone keeps telling me that I'll miss TLT when I'm back at Pizza Port. I guess we'll see, So far, I'm not sure. I definitely like closing shifts better at Pizza Port; it's easier. All you have to do is put away the snacks and displays, clean your register, take out the trash and make sure the lost and found gets taken to the proper place. At TLT, there's so much to remember to do. You have to clean EVERYTHING and take apart the drink cells and clean every little bit of it. Plus there's trash, wipe downs, and a hundred other things I'm always afraid I'm going to forget.
I've gotten better at counting out and building my $300 fund. You're supposed to get it all done in 20 minutes, but waiting for Leads to let you buy change, count your fund, and verify your money almost makes it impossible to get it done in the allotted time. I got mine done in 30 today, though! I felt very proud of myself. And my drawer was perfect. I wasn't over or short any money.
A few days ago, I lost an EDC (which, for those of you who don't know, is that little receipt that sometimes prints out after you do a credit/debit transaction that the cashier keeps. Sometimes you sign it. It helps the store keep track of the money.). It's really bad if you lose one. I had to fill out a statement and then I got coached by the manager. All it was was them telling me to be more careful and that I can't be over or under more than $10. Getting coached sounds so much scarier than it actually is. I'm sure it's a lot scarier if you're in serious trouble, though. I really don't want to find out.
People have been a lot nicer than they seemed when I first got to TLT, so I might miss some of them. There were more College Program participants, so that helped me feel not so alone and there were some regular Cast Members who are really nice that I'll probably miss talking to. I was talking to a guy named Robert (he has a twin brother who's 7 minutes older than him-- something we have in common! haha) and he was telling me that I should see the Southern California sights before I leave. He was telling me I should go to other theme parks and the beach and to see an Angels game (the stadium's not too far away! I saw it with Peggy when she brought me!) and to go to the San Diego zoo. It sounds like I've got all my days off planned already! haha
I forgot to post a picture of my official Disneyland name tag and Cast Member I.D!
Well, I think that's it for the updates, from what I can think of.. I'm going to try to update on Monday or Tuesday, since those are my regular days off now. Sarah, Gage, and I might go to the beach on Monday. I hope we do!
