The last time did cost a both a pretty penny ; )

Originally Posted By SoThisIsLove Hey! And I'm not even kidding. I've mentioned before on other thread topics that I utterly adore the custodial staff. Why? Two reasons. DH owns/operates a janitorial company. We KNOW good cleaning and our customers are extremely well-served. And, I appreciate being able to walk into DL/DCA and not want to hurl whenever I look at the sinks, toilets, walkways, etc. It's HUGE to me to know that there are people (who, of course, may not be loving their jobs at the moment...I can understand that) who make my visit magical because I feel safe, secure, and well-taken care of. So, in advance: thank you! I will be one of those happy people that you will have a direct impact on! xoxo

I would like to help keep it that way for others to experience the Magic in a Clean park. Knott's is just filthy.

Originally Posted By -PegLegPete- You guys are geat..Main Street would be fun. I like the backstage stuff too. My buddy told me that he will find me and follow me around dropping trash trying to irritate me. LOL I speak to CM's all the time and that is how I got the referral. Right place at the right time I suppose. Just waitin' for that call from Mickey!! I have a part timer lined up to help offset the cost of gas so that I can work there. The wifey is being super supportive about this as it gets closer. When she first heard that I was seriously gonna do this she got spooked about the gas prices.

Do whatever you have to do to get this job. Jobs aren't about money, they are about purpose. You are my hero, dude, I wish I could quit and clean Disney toilets with you and I am totally serious. I have made it my goal this year to remove all extraenous living expenses like cable, internet, etc, so I don't feel like a slave anymore and I can mow the lawn at the high school football field like Forest Gump. Live your life like Ãt's your last day, bay-bee! You will be the best toilet polisher ever! Congrats.

LMAO and yes, I even cancelled my Sirius satt. and the golf channel to cut costs around here!! So I know where your at.. The Best to you too bud..
