I received my contract in the mail today, so they are sent, should get them by early next week depending on where you live. The contract will have all of your dates and what location you are working. You will need to read over this to make sure everything is correct, sign it and send it back in.

What if something isnt correct on the contract? I still havent got mine yet but is there a place to write changes in at? On my online application it says i can work all weekends starting in September when i go back to college but i never said i could work every weekend, in my interview i was asked if i could work weekends when school starts back up but never asked how many ect. If my college wasnt 2 hours from CP i would work every weekend but it just to much of a drive to do all of them. Plus i have class till 12 on fridays so i cant leave till after that. I plan on working half of them till close.

My school was almost 4 hrs away the first year I started and I was required to work all weekends...

yeah, i would have put your end date as the date you wanted to stop working weekends once school started. when are you contracted to? And when does your school start? cause i think if you said you'd do weekends, and say school starts early sept but you are contracted to end of oct they may expect you to do all weekends. I'd give the person who hired you a call asap to figure that out - if you wait they may get annoyed later thinking you lied on your app just to get hired etc

Mine came in today after weeks of panicking....lol i would suggest patience, becuz you will pratically kill urself worrying about it lol
The last few years they have generally required anyone going to school within a 3-4 hour drive of the park to work during Halloweekends. Of people I've known, some have gotten out of it easily while others were told the only way out was to quit, so I suspect it varies depending on the supervisor/manager.

i move back to school on august 28th and classes start the 30th. my last day at CP is august 26th and then i go from september 4th till october 31st. i would rather work till like october 2nd but in the interview when she asked if i could work weekends i didnt know that meant all 8.
its not really a big deal if i have to do every weekend but i would rather not. i wish she would have asked in the interview, i was to nervous to ask lol. my letter should be coming soon to my school address so ill get it after spring break. ill just write it in there and if i get it i get it if i dont i dont.

Dont just write it on your contract, that will do you no good. You need to talk to your Manager, Debra for area 1 and see if you can work something out. I would call her ASAP if your worried about it or at least send her an email. But dont just write in new dates on your contract because thats not what they agreed to hire you with so you need to talk to them about it not just take it upon yourself to change your contract.

Sorry but that is just ridiculous. Why the hell did you agree to that?
It was my first summer and didn't know any better.
