shadow2k3 Posted March 26, 2003 Posted March 26, 2003 I have training this Saturday from 1-5:30. This will be really routine for me now, considering the fact that I've done this twice before... What about you associates? When do you go train? Is it the same date or is it different? Need input.... ~Shadow~ Quote
StXBomber Posted March 26, 2003 Posted March 26, 2003 I never got the letter, but ive heard mine is the 5th from 1:30 - 5:00 Quote
matt3224 Posted March 26, 2003 Posted March 26, 2003 I have to train Sat and Sun this week and next.... Quote
Return_of_Yogi Posted March 26, 2003 Posted March 26, 2003 This sat. 8:30-4:30 !!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHhh Quote
TraderJake Posted March 26, 2003 Posted March 26, 2003 Saturday, 10-4, readying the store for a large amount of people to be trained and then training people. Get to leave at 4 because of a school dance, but my associates are stuck there till 5:30 Quote
StXBomber Posted March 27, 2003 Posted March 27, 2003 Can anyone confirm the date and time for FoFZ training? I have heard 4/5 from 1:30 - 5:00, but as I said, I never got the letter. If I don't get a response tonight, I'll call the rides office tomorrow to confirm. This would just free up some hassle (and time to study for exams!) Quote
beastop Posted March 27, 2003 Posted March 27, 2003 Flight of Fear/Zephry is scheduled for on-location training from 12:30PM-5:00PM on Saturday, April 5th. Quote
FOF Posted March 27, 2003 Posted March 27, 2003 That would be correct beastop. Anyways stxbmbr didnt i tell you the time? I thought I did tell you it was at 12:30, oh well. Quote
PKIguy14 Posted March 27, 2003 Posted March 27, 2003 This question may sound really dumb but then again i am just a dumb 11 year old. What is training, and what do those little control panels that operate the ride look like? thanks Quote
FOF Posted March 27, 2003 Posted March 27, 2003 (edited) PKIguy14 asked: "This question may sound really dumb but then again i am just a dumb 11 year old" Don't you have to be 13 to post on the site? **edit**I just did a little research about the topic and according to the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 Im correct.

GrandPoobah Posted March 27, 2003 Posted March 27, 2003 I believe if you're under 13 you just need your parent's permission. Quote
matt3224 Posted March 27, 2003 Posted March 27, 2003 Well that settles that then.... FoF, where did you find that at? Quote
FOF Posted March 27, 2003 Posted March 27, 2003 Well that settles that then.... FoF, where did you find that at? I already knew the document name so I wnet to google and typed it in and came across this page which includes the full text of the document. http://www.ftc.gov/ogc/coppa1.htm Quote
AZ Kinda Guy Posted March 28, 2003 Posted March 28, 2003 This question may sound really dumb but then again i am just a dumb 11 year old. What is training, and what do those little control panels that operate the ride look like? thanks Since no one would answer your question, I will. Training is just that, training. We get hands-on training on our particualr ride(s). We learn what to do in certain scenarios, how to properly operate the ride, ETC. As for the control box, nothing spectacular about them. Just a metal box with buttons and lights on them! Quote
CYoung2003 Posted March 28, 2003 Posted March 28, 2003 yea and some of them have the annoying little alarms on them. BEEP BEEP BEEP!!!! Quote
StXBomber Posted March 28, 2003 Posted March 28, 2003 thanx for the corect date and time. At least I got my tickets, I would be mad if those didn't get to me either! Quote
Losing Streak Posted March 28, 2003 Posted March 28, 2003 For food, all the newbies have orientation on a day prior to in-stand, and then everybody comes for in-stand. At least I think it works that way. On the actual day of in-stand, I think we just clean up and learn anything we may have forgotten or that changed. Do you have to be in uniform though? Someone from food, like beastfreak, could you answer that? Quote
Return_of_Yogi Posted March 28, 2003 Posted March 28, 2003 For Characters and Escorts We show up, get the costumes fitted to us, spend most of the day learning the do's and dont's and if the weathers nice we take it outside and try out the walkiing skills of the newbs....... Quote
SOB_TOM Posted March 30, 2003 Posted March 30, 2003 I was supposed to train today (well yesterday), but I was at a robotics competition (got home at 1230 in the morning) so I couldnt go. Im hoping to get trained before the park opens tho! PS. FOF, what did they say about when we get schedules? I have a couple of dates I need off. Quote
Scooby_Doo Posted March 30, 2003 Posted March 30, 2003 (edited) Hey everyone working at pki i wish you all the best of luck! Edited January 1, 1970 by Scooby_Doo Quote
beastop Posted March 30, 2003 Posted March 30, 2003 When I have my rides training on next Sunday am I supposed to wear my uniform or do I not have to? I kinda ordered the wrong size and I had to ship it back and it's still not here. grrrrrr. Oh well. Thanx. Quote
flyer06 Posted March 30, 2003 Posted March 30, 2003 For rides training this week and next (5/5, 5/6) no you do not have to wear your uniform. Quote
StXBomber Posted March 30, 2003 Posted March 30, 2003 Guess what? I finally got my paper on the day and time of my training YESTERDAY!!!! lol Wow, the mail system totally screwed up the delivery of that letter! Quote
beastop Posted March 30, 2003 Posted March 30, 2003 Thanks flyer. One last question, I promise lol. Am I supposed to go to the University again or do I go back to my ride. Sorry for all the ?s. I really appreciate all the help. Quote
StXBomber Posted March 30, 2003 Posted March 30, 2003 Am I supposed to go to the University again or do I go back to my ride. I was wondering the same thing myself! PKIU or FoFZ? Quote
flyer06 Posted March 30, 2003 Posted March 30, 2003 Don't worry about asking so many questions, its cool. I was in your spot at one time too. On your training, you goto your ride, you should see your sups and crew some place close to your ride. You will hardly ever even see PkiU once the season starts. Quote
beastop Posted March 30, 2003 Posted March 30, 2003 Thanks again flyer. I see your avatar says you've worked on The Beast. That's where I'm working this summer. I'll take good care of her for ya. Quote
DanielRadsgrl Posted March 30, 2003 Posted March 30, 2003 I have a questilon It may sound retarded but hey, Ok when you get to PKI urly when they test the ride how come when Face Off takes off it makes a load annoying noise. Quote
