It's all about the work ethic. Back in the day people were proud of their job no matter where they work. I think if Paramount knew of a potential problem they would be more inclined to fix it, but they don't know, because no one tells them. As for Kings Island I have gone for years, and think they have some great employees, but there is ALWAYS a bad apple in the bunch. PKI is going through big changes, and as for landscaping and themeing it did improve this year. The stuff that could get fixed was fixed especially with FOF, and Adventure Express. For someone like me who has been going to PKI for 15 years +. It's amazing to see what they've accomplished. I've grown up in a family that has many buisness owners, and I can only imagine what it takes to run that park, and I would'nt want to do it. It's tough to run a small buisness, and to keep things maintained and ad some new multi-million dollar project is expensive even for big corporations who probably have a budjet that looks like a nightmare. My budjet is a nightmare and all I have to do is pay bills and buy groceries. We might not like some of their descisions but their going to make them, and complaining only causes ulcers, so talk about the good stuff that has made PKI the fun place to go for young and old for over 30 years.
