DantheWoman 9 Report post Posted March 22 So I've read stories about people being ride ops and having fun, and I would like to be one at GAdv. I'll pay attention and be responsible since I love roller coasters and flat rides, and I have autism, which means repetition is easy for me. My gimmick is going to be giving DC Comics factoids before sending people off on the rides with DC themes. Safety is my top priority. However, due to the whole coronavirus thing, I'm not so sure when the park will open for this year or if they will hire me. I hope this will blow over and they'll hire me.

ThemeParkRider 9 Report post Posted March 23 SFGA was always short on staff when I worked there and the outbreak wont' change that - they will still need people and give you plenty of hours if you need them. Good luck and have fun! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Everything you see or read is just each individuals opinion. If you haven’t applied yet feel free to apply and they will reach out as soon as they can.

If you DO become a ride op you could "accidentally" call the ride the "wrong name": like calling Bizarro Medusa (or Dominator)or calling Green Lantern Chang. You could also have informal polls of the people in the station like:"Raise your hand if you rode Chiller". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DantheWoman 9 Report post Posted March 24 (edited) One of my facts WAS gonna be about The Chiller. I might do the Medusa thing, OR I might call GL the Scream Machine and say, "You know, somebody lost their hat on it once." (referring to a hilarious pov I saw of it) Oh and on Twister I'll say "Enjoy your ride on Brainiac" because it totally needs to be rethemed to Brainiac Edited March 24 by DantheWoman Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
