Hey, I know this is an old forum. I've had a pretty rough year but I'm starting to get back on top of things now. I was just wondering what are some of the higher jobs I can get at theme parks like the ones you've mentioned? I know I'd start as a ride operator but what are the other higher paying jobs I could get into in the future if I work at a theme park?

Hello, so for a while I've been struggling with what I want to do as a job. I have been trying to work with animals but so far my experience in the industry has been really negative. My second biggest passion/interest since I've been little has been theme parks. I was wondering if anyone here is or has worked as a ride operator? Is it hard to get a job at a theme park? Which theme parks are the best to work at? What are the career promotions like? Do certain theme parks let you work all year round? I'm not too knowledgeable on the subject so I'd really appreciate everyone's input. I'm also do have anxiety so I'm worried I'm going to mess up with the safety stuff.

I had a stroke reading that title

Well yeah I didn't say it has to be a clone of an existing version.

My first choice would probably be an RMC Hybrid. Don't think I need to explain why. After that a Stratacoaster or Gigacoaster would be awesome to have on the country's coaster line up and will put us back on the height records list (since after the closure of Tower of Terror we don't have any truly massively tall coasters). What would your pick be?

Both

Looks good but Dreamworld is still crap atm. The coaster lineup is an outdated looper, a poor man's Jet Rescue, some crappy kids coaster and this. 1 good Coaster in what's supposed to be the country's biggest theme park.

I'll ride the Steel Taipan when it comes out but after that I don't think I'll have any reason to visit the park. Most of the thrill rides are gone and most of the ones left are very average (the Claw and Pandamonium are exceptions). Unless they get more decent thrill rides in the future outside of only three of them being above average, I won't be visiting the park when I can go to MovieWorld instead since it offers much more in terms of thrill rides.

I'm asking more about GP, since DC Rivals is certainly the most famous in the enthusiast community.

What would you say is the most iconic Australian theme park attraction, both locally and globally?

I knew I forgot to mention something, Vikings Revenge was another great

Which former Australian theme park attraction that you miss would you choose to bring back or ride on one more time? (Examples: Tower of Terror, Wipeout, Sea Viper, Thunderbolt, Bermuda Triangle, Bush Beast, Eureka Mine, Big Dipper, Metropolis, Looney Tunes Water Ride, etc)

I'd rather have a six flags or Universal Studios.

Agreed. Thats exactly why the city needs a new one. All we have is the Scenic Railway which is closed down 90% of the time, and that pissy little Speedy Beetle or whatever the hell its called.

That was part of its charm. I also actually enjoyed the coaster and I'd even say it was Melbournes best coaster. LPM feels so empty without it.
