My FABULOUS new job!!!

Still at Disney World........

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

Is this some sort of promotion? If so that goes with a pay raise right? If so congrats, if not it should be and still congrats!

I think "Best. Job. Ever." would've also made a good topic title. ;)

That looks amazing, AIOP! How good of you to drop back in with exciting news.

Yep...I'm in the same boat...doubtful I'll be there anytime soon, tragically, as much as I'd like a free ride and a chance to meet another ToOer...

I moved to Florida for good. Disney is where my heart is. <3

BTW, I was exploring the Aerophile website (they are the balloon company that I work for that made the balloon), and they have live webcams from several of the balloons that Aerophile made, including my balloon, Characters In Flight!!

Check out the link. Watch the balloon anytime you like! I'm likely to pop up sometime LOL

Here is the site. The webcam is at the bottom of the page. It should be labeled 'Webcam WDW'

By the time I probably make it to Disney is when I have kids (if I have kids). So by then you need to be the owner. lol But wow you have an insane job that you like with is more important than a million dollars doing something you absolutely hate! Congrats!
