Got my park up and running

Well, sorry for the brief dissappearance. Got my operations up and running at Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom. It took a month to get system bugs worked out, new proceedures in place, all 32 of my green employees hired and trained, set some new personal hour records (daily and weekly) and slept at work for a couple days, but hey, we are up and running full steam now.

Already we are ahead of budget, under in labor, and I think I have the finest team any Kodak operation has ever seen. They are awesome.

Anyway, back now. If anyone finds themselves at Six Flags in Louisville, stop by and ask for me, I'll give my exodus friends a free photo. :D

Thank you all

Im in charge of all Kodak operations at the park. I don't actually work for the park; I work for Kodak as the site manager at SFKK. It was a really big deal to be offered a Six Flags. Only 16 managers in the whole corporation can have one. It has quite a bit of prestige with Kodak to be there. I'm pleased to say the least. It is an immense amount of work, especially getting open at the beginning of the season. But I am there everyday making sure the operation runs well. I seem to spend more time fixing things than anything else as well as training my team and command staff. It may take 12 hours a day, but it sure doesn't seem like it.

Free admission? :lol: I wish I had that kind of power. Free photos are as good as I can pull, and even that is in extremely limited quantities. The park wont even comp tickets to its employees, very sad....

Anyway, anyone near by should drop in sometime

Before I bought a digital camera I used those cheep Kodak cameras, so if I bring all my film that hasn't been developed over the years. will you developed them for me?

congrats on the job
