If you are looking at an awesome new job offer, can you still go on your magical vacation?
I’ve done it successfully three times. I bring it up during the negations once the offer is on the table. I just state the facts, and I flat out state that I am willing to take it unpaid. I have had to take vacations unpaid, but I have been able to take them. Ask a Manager has some good tips (and if you are job hunting, you need to be reading her).

How ’bout you?  Legoland Florida will be opening on October 15 where Cypress Gardens used to be in Winterland, FL.  I was kind of curious to see it, as I had seen people citing Knight’s Tournament in Legoland California pre-Wizarding World of Harry Potter.  However, it looks pretty meh. To be honest, I’m not a [...]

While poking around Da** You Autocorrect last night (NSFW or little eyes, but utterly hysterical), I noticed a Disney banner ad.  As it was for a url I did not recognize, Mydisneydiscovery.com, and stated that a Disney vacation was for adults, I had to check it out.  Now, before I even start discussing the ad [...]

I read the first The Kingdom Keepers book back in 2006.  I liked it, but I kind of filed it in the back of my mind.  The books are about teens who are holographic hosts at Disney parks, and they battle Disney villains.  Then in 2009, following Lou’s interview of Ridley Pearson, I got my [...]
