Tried to get a Job at the one in Panama City, FL when it was still there. I was Told "NO". When I asked why..... "Over Qualified! And we don't pay anyone $10hr." I was Sooo Mad.

10 year ago I worked at a small park in Southend-on-sea on rides. I was under 18 so couldn't control any big rides like the log flume or the rollercoasters but worked on some of the smaller rides. Being a big RCT fan I thought I would love working there, but actually I hated it. I worked 12 hour days, both days at the weekend and 5 days a week when I wasn't at school. This was on top of rehearsals for my Drama A Level after school, other coursework too for my other 3 A Levels, which left me with no time to relax so I was pretty stressed. It wasn't that much of a happy place to work either I found, which was a real shame.
