I worked there and it is truly the best job in the world. If only the rest of the world could see what goes on there. All the conventions that I got to go to and even work. Hell, I even met Marty Skylar face to face. He is now the president of imagineering. I saw him on the 25 Birthday of EPCOT Center! October 1st, 2007… Celebrating 25 years,… and I worked the ABC Super Soap Weekend….. Work there There is Soo MUCH To DO, that it’s unbelievable.
