Pros

The place is so out of control that you could basically do whatever you want at all times, including hang out in the kitchen and stuff your face.

Cons

Extremely chaotic. Parents are often getting too drunk at the bar and ending up in fist fights, half of the supervisors are high on drugs so they cannot manage their staff, and the employees are so overworked that they are passing out in the hallways (and their managers are making them suck it up and get to work). The place is a buffet-style restaurant and kid's entertainment facility with rides like a carousel, go-karts, and an indoor miniature roller coaster. After the kids would go and stuff their faces, they would immediately run onto rides and vomit everywhere. So you basically cleaned vomit all day. I worked as a party server, greeter, ride attendant, you name it -- I did it all. And not one job was nicer than the last because everything is just so out of control. Management has just absolutely lost it. You would not believe some of the stories I have about working here.
