October 1, 200717 yr comment_15186 Just saying it doesn't make much sense considering the law, and the past on Tussauds employment.
October 1, 200717 yr Author comment_15187 It is strange considering how strict it used to be but I guess things change and aslong as the person in question is able to do the job I think its a welcome move.
October 1, 200717 yr comment_15188 I looked through Chessie's COSWOP and nowhere does it say under 16's can't work on the rides. In fact theres no restrictions for platformers at all.
October 2, 200717 yr comment_15192 Just saying it doesn't make much sense considering the law, and the past on Tussauds employment. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Have a look at the Laws in Kingston, they are completely different to those of the Runnymade (or something) which is Thorpe's local council. Every council has they're own laws. I am working less hours and days than some of the 16 year olds however some people aged 16 who are doing they're GCSE's like myself in year 11 have the same maximum working hours. I still work quite alot though thanks to new laws. Waiting for my contract to come in the post now. On Saturday I shall be laving at 7:45 and getting on the same train as the other chessie peeps, gots to get there and make my staff ID, not too sure how they're going to issue about 30 staff ID's that morning but meh.
October 2, 200717 yr Author comment_15193 I think cwoa staff ids are just printed on card, I remember alton staff thinking they were fake or something when pete tryed to get staff discount!
October 2, 200717 yr comment_15194 Yeah but still, they have to do 30 odd for all of the new staff in 30 minutes or so.. think they where meant to do it yesterday but they where a tad lazy.
October 2, 200717 yr comment_15196 I wonder what ride you will be on <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Would be nice if they started be on Vampire I'm guessing will start on Bubbles then Something like buccaneer.
October 2, 200717 yr Author comment_15197 Ah well I guess bubbles smells nice Will come find you if I go!
October 2, 200717 yr comment_15201 We regret to inform you that on this occasion, your application has been unsuccessful.PFFT! Just because I wanted to work in R&A. Bastards.
October 2, 200717 yr comment_15210 Probably Vampire Dann.. although area 1 is very different to 2. We normall train people at Fury first because that has the most staff on it and because its the main ride.
October 6, 200717 yr comment_15533 Enjoyed working at chessie today very much, alot of the work I had to do today was however behind the scenes as I had to be trained up and shown all different parts of the ride which aren't of access to the public. So if anybody saw me it would've been somewhere random like underneath vampire lols. I completed training and was assesed on Vampire , Bubbleworks , Seastorm , Capers and Playhouse, not bad to get trained up on all those in one day. Working again next Saturday and will be back platforming for more than 30mins at a time

(In that sort of area anyway)
October 8, 200717 yr comment_15601 That does explain why there were a few people underneath vampire yesterday. (In that sort of area anyway) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Did you see me yesterday, didn't know you was at the park.
October 8, 200717 yr comment_15603 Did you see me yesterday, didn't know you was at the park. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I might have seen you. Around Vampire in diffrent places. And yes I was there .
October 24, 200717 yr comment_15965 Congratualtions to Jack Dann for beating the current Vampire throughput!Congratulations!
October 24, 200717 yr comment_15966 I'm sure alot of people will get higher than us (forgot the name of the guy I was working with ) .. I;ve only been there couple of weeks but was told it was a good throughput of 749pph so yeah pfft... Sure Peter or someone will come along with a 24746pph or some silly throughput soon enough though
October 29, 200717 yr comment_16249 Well, I'm waitressing at the golf club at the moment.... fun fun fun! But eventually I would like to do something involving law... possibly European Law, or Criminology or a Barrister. Or if that fails and I'm too thick (which is quite likely!) then I'm thinking the police looks good
