Favorite\Easiest Ride To Work?

Talk about anything that has to do with Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor here.
Postby Maggie&meSFGAm? on August 16th, 2004, 1:12 pm
If you worked at SFGAm, what ride would be the most fun to work and the least fun?

I think the most fun for me would have to be BTR just because of the music. It's a great atmosphere and this ride would be enjoyable even if I was the fastline person. I would like to work East River Crawler just so I can speed up the line. They really need two people for this ride.

The least favorite would have to be the cars or the train. For the cars, in my opinion it's not that much fun to look at cars, and for the train sooner or later you will have to wait at the station for 7 1/2 minutes straight.

B:TR in summer would definitly not be good, as the ceiling fans do minimal to nothing....it's like an oven in there. Other than that B:TR would be a great ride. Scenic Railway would be a great ride to work on in my opinion. As for esiest, probably a flume, as you just stand there and group and be freindly under a cover....and pretty much just look at the ride when your standing up on the ride.....Demon would be great though it would be nice if they built a new cover over the station...

I think the easiest ride would have to be RB or SUF because all you have to do is to push the restraints.

I would work at BTR because I mean the workers are next to the exit were the train leaves so you can get air from there. I would not like to work on the sky trak tower being the person who has to sit on the ride till it goes up and down every time you know how bored it will be to see the park all day. The first couple times will be good, why because I like the ride myself for some odd reason..But working there would not be good sitting on your a$$ all day looking at the same thing every day and nobody to talk to.

I wouldn't want to work at a theme park I visited a lot. If I did work there I'd like to work a water ride...

I would work on Raging Bull because I think it's an exciting ride, and all you have to do is check the restraints.

I wouldn't like working on American Eagle or Viper, because my back would start to kill me after a while because you have to bend down a lot.

V2 would be a bad ride to work, the loud LIMs constantly, it would be annoying, I would like to work RB or Demon, those would be fun.

For the one time I was on the Columbia Carousel this year, they had the music off. I was thinking to myself that they used to always have it on. The supervisor left, and the "We Like To Party" came on. That's more like it.

A kiddie ride would definately be the easiest, with virtually no obnoxious guests and you can interact with the guests more. It would probably be boring, though. How much do you really do for the Bumble Bees?

^Yeah but the bad thing about working on kiddie rides is that sometimes you dont even do nothing and the kid will be like he sexually harrased me. Why because it was on the new...thank god they got survalince cameras.

The only bad thing about the columbia is having to listen to the "Six Flags Party" show from 10:00 til 3:30. It would be cool at night though, high above the parade and the fireworks behind you. But you'd probably be a bit distracted. But people may not even ride becuase all the little kiddies will be at the parade. So you could entertain yourself for a half hour.

Yeah the show is good I like the parade :lol: another ride to work at is De Ja Vu Because I asked this worker he said its cool because you dont have to do nothing when the ride breaks down...not that Im a lazy worker. By the way when De Ja Vu or like KC is closed all day what happens to the people that work there. They get transferred right but wouldnt they have to much workers?

If they plan to open it that day they walk around or take a nap in the station...
...if it's down for the day they'll either send them home or to another ride.
