For Aba, what started out as a seasonal job at Worlds of Fun has turned into something much bigger. After that initial season, returning year after year, Aba has built skills, taken on positions with increasing responsibility, and become a leader in our Ride Operations area. And along the way, Aba hasn’t forgotten what we’re all about here – helping guests make memories and have FUN! Read on to find out more about Aba’s journey with us, and what makes working at our parks so great.
Q: How did your journey begin?
Aba: I started out as a Ride Operator, and through hard work and dedication, I was able to move up as I returned season after season. I became a Team Lead, then a Supervisor, and now I’m an Operations Supervisor.
Q: What makes your job so special?
Aba: Every day is something new! You always have different kinds of experiences, and you’re always meeting new people. Everyone treats each other with respect. We all have a goal, and that's just to make guests happy. So as team members, if we also work to keep each other happy, then we're going to achieve our goal with guests, too.
Q: What advice would you give to someone considering a job here?
Aba: I would say taking initiative is key, especially when interacting with guests. Be open-minded and embrace challenges. They’re part of the experience, but overcoming them is really rewarding. And at the end of the day, remember to have fun!
