When your entire social life revolves around the fact that you know when quarter draft, fifty cent baby-bud, and fifty cent rolling rock nights are.
Your "leisure" time is spent in Soak City or the pool at Breakers.
You think that treating yourself to a "nice meal" while at work is walking all the way up to the caf from the back.
You spend an entire day at the park and never ride a major ride because your visiting other employees.
Your non-pointer friends know how to run your ride because you talk about it so much.
Your idea of getting away from the park is going to Elyria or Toledo.
You hate Saturdays.
Your hierarchy in life revolves around the color of your name tag compared to everyone else's.
You can understand and hold a conversation with a full blooded Polish person.
Your life centers on one day, and one day only...the day your contract ends.

When you have to leave you say "its' time for me to fly fly fly so I have to say......."
and wait for the "bye bye bye" reply from whom ever!
You actually "sigh" when you see the Dominos delivery guy's uniform
When you had company in your dorm room making an "impression" was the last thing on your mind
You SWEAR the walk back to the dorm from Louie's wasn't QUITE this far!
When you wake up at Bayside, yet live at Commons
When you wake up at Cedars, yet live at Commons
When you wake up to find you have 5 extra "roommates" all of whom DONT live at commons
Someone asks you to resite the Raptor spiel then have to tell you to shut up cause they really didn't think 1- you'd do it 2- you remembered it 3- you'd go through the ENTIRE thing
When you purposely arrived at work early JUST to put your id on the control booth for "dibs" at 1st A.M. test ride
When "eating out" meant McDonalds instead of the employee caf
When eating "like a cow" meant your bill at the employee caf was over $6.00
As a guest, when you just wanted to smack a guest in line when they said something stupid to a fellow employee or just in general
Memories I will cherish FOREVER! :)

If you constantly have to restrain yourself from killing a seagul because of that fine...
If you look at ordinary children on the street and think to yourself, "That kid is too short."
If you have the impulse to tell somebody to put thier shirt or shoes on when you're not working...
If you think spending $5.75 for a fast food meal is the biggest rip off ever...
If you discuss the operations of a particular ride and how it differs from other rides with your friends/coworkers in the off season....
If your daily internet experience consists of looking for websites that have the most up to date gossip/information about your friends/coworkers from the Point...
But they're all so true :)
