Zoo Atlanta

Ropes Course Operator

May - August 2019 • Atlanta, GA

What I liked

The team was amazing and my supervisor was a really good leader and taught me a lot. It was really fun and I loved being outside all summer.

What I wish was different

I worked there for two summers, during the most recent summer (2019) there was a lot of power changes in the higher levels of the rides division of the zoo and that caused a rift between employees. There were a couple of people in charge who were publicly not doing their work and it rubbed off on us and made us resentful towards them.

Advice

I loved this job, even though it had no direct influence in the path I want to take in my career. It was a great way to make money and I made some lifelong friendships with my coworkers.
