I love my Company D back pack that says '2000 Millennium Cast Member' on it. You are right, in Epcot Company D in the cast services building by Test Track/Mexico. You can walk through from cast services - you pop out in Mexico where Donald does his meet and greets. After my shifts I'd walk from Canada to Mexico as they were the closest exit points to my pavilion and it was quicker/ nicer than waiting for the bus. I also got 60% off my Disney Cruise as cast member discount. I got a number of name badges with different variations - some say England, some say United Kingdom. I'm cold blooded too. I tell people I'm solar powered!
Screamed when I saw this come up in my subs! Again, I LOVE this series. My questions are, what did you do with your spare time and did you do much cooking in the kitchen or did you eat out a lot?
It's a bit bizarre to me seeing how strict Disney are about cast members not taking photos behind the scenes etc, I went to Disneyland Paris a few years ago with my choir because we were performing in the magical musical festival, and we came in through the back and saw lots of behind the scenes, like we saw a massive area full of lots of roofs covered in snow getting stored before Christmas, and we walked through this tunnel and through a door and suddenly popped out in the Star Wars ride and was like erm what?! It was really surreal and strange, but cool, but we never got told no photos etc so I don't know if Disneyland Paris is less strict?
I recently got accepted to spring 2017 for quick service food and beverage. Do you have any insight on how that role is? I know you didn't work it personally but maybe a roommate that told you about a typical day for them.
I didn't actually personally know anyone in QS food, but from what I heard it is very fast paced. Which is great as your shifts will fly by! Every role is what you make of it. So go in open minded and make sure to make the most of every moment. There are so many things that I wish I could go back and do!
SHUT UP. BEN AND JERRY'S IS LIKE A DOLLAR THERE?!?!?!?!?! I start my program in May and now I am WAYYYY too pumped for it from this fact alone! Also preach! I'd much rather order papa johns then go out clubbing!
Were there many cast members from Australia working at Disney? I've been wanting to work there for years now and did my first audition for one of the many parks last year but after going to Disney World last year also, I'm set on flying to America to audition a few times to hopefully get accepted as a Face Character for WDW unless you know of other ways people from here can apply to work there! :)
I am a full time employee as a character performer at magic kingdom but all the video I find are about the Disney College program... are there any NOT about the college program and specifically about a full time cast member position?
+RandomlyBeautiful13 yeah you are totally allowed to book a room for yourself and use your discount. I know a lot of people that booked a apartment in the Grand Floridian together for the night to experience the hotel.
were disney flexible with when you worked? I have a chronic illness, so if i were to become a disney cast member, could I come back to the UK for hospital appointments or would that be an issue?
I'm gonna be honest and tell you that would probably not work great. Not only are a lot of the jobs demanding which may not work well depending on your illness, but you also work a good amount of hours. Plus you only get two days off a week, which aren't always together are aren't always the same time weekly. However I hope it works out for you!!!
Rachel Butcher they changed the policy for college program and international college programmers where you can't give away shifts anymore. You can only trade within the week of that schedule
I don't have a question but I just wanted to say I love this series and this channel!
Not really a question but.... Any chance of a flat tour? We have lots of Disney items but love seeing other Disney decorations!

I also have a name badge with a completely random name and American state on that I had to wear on the day that I forgot to wear my badge to work!
Sarah, I love your videos! You have such an amazing personality!
Awh! Thank you very much. I find myself quite annoying personally haha!
Screamed when I saw this come up in my subs! Again, I LOVE this series. My questions are, what did you do with your spare time and did you do much cooking in the kitchen or did you eat out a lot?
Found your videos from your Disney vlogs, which I thought where FANTASTIC and really fun and real! Love your channel x
Thank you so much. That is such nice comment and we really appreciate it!
hmmm for ur q&a what about some tips for interviews if you're mostly shy and want to impress/stand out ?:)
I would love to see a Disney merch collection 😊 x
Oh god. That video would be hours long haha!
Haha do a 10 part series :P x

Nice job on the series, Sarah!
Thank you so much!!! Glad you are enjoying my rambles!
What is your favourite food from when u were working at Disney
I love this series! And, my god, pineapple sorbet sounds amazing!
It was literally the best thing ever!
I'm from Southampton too. It certainly is a small world a after all
Loved this series! Found it so interesting, so much I didn't know about xx
+Kate Ballamy I'm really glad you enjoyed it!
yeah whenever we go to uni we get annual passes instead of tickets for 2/3 days
What what the highest and lowest/most difficult or challenging moment of your cast member experience? Thanks! Look forward to your Q&A :)

I actually don't think I met anyone there who had come from Australia. It is quite a distance to travel for you! Good luck. I hope you get it.
Your lip color is amazing!!
Thank you!!!!
I wanna be a cast member so badly!
I am a full time employee as a character performer at magic kingdom but all the video I find are about the Disney College program... are there any NOT about the college program and specifically about a full time cast member position?
I haven't seen any. Maybe you should make some! 😀
Suppose you have a day off and you've saved up enough to spend the night in a hotel room. Would you be allowed to do that?
+RandomlyBeautiful13 yeah you are totally allowed to book a room for yourself and use your discount. I know a lot of people that booked a apartment in the Grand Floridian together for the night to experience the hotel.

Plus you only get two days off a week, which aren't always together are aren't always the same time weekly. However I hope it works out for you!!!
I will say though, you can generally easily change and take shifts with other cast members which helps
Rachel Butcher why don't you just use American doctors for the time?
because my illness cost would be so expensive over in america and not many insurance companies allow me to go with them :(
Rachel Butcher they changed the policy for college program and international college programmers where you can't give away shifts anymore. You can only trade within the week of that schedule
can you use fast passes with your cast member access?
Hi, I'm new here. How often can someone go to grocery bingo?
I love your videos!!
What if you worked at the resorts? Do you get to go the passes?
thanks from Egypt I love USA
I love your videos!
Thank you so much!
For Blackout dates, can you buy a ticket with your own money
I'm interested in working for Disney. Is it hard to get a job there? I need a change of scenery
It is a lot of work and money to get a job there. If you are willing to work hard and love Disney, then it is totally possible!
Are there any fees associated with the guest passes?
your cute, i love your accent
Thank you!
That Sounds Fun your welcome
