Texas Part II



The second half of my trip consisted of spending time at the waterparks. At this point I was separated from Greg and spent time with another intern at the company. Our job was to secret shop the five waterparks in the Dallas area. We had to see if we could sneak into the park, try all the food, buy a locker, see if we were offered a souvenir cup and observe any oddities.

This task was an all day event because every park was at least one hour apart. We were successful in getting to every park by the end of the day. Every park varied slightly in their operation some executed better than others. We were successful in sneaking in a few times and did catch some odd behavior from employees but it had to be done. After we had gathered all the information we then had to compile it and send it as a presentation to the VP of Operations so that he could show it to his general managers.

It was nice spending the day at the five waterparks and trying some cool new attractions but it was also cool that our feedback was being taken on what the park operations were like.
