    Do we need to bring our own lunch box or buy something near work place?

    yeahh it's cheaper to bring ur own lunch instead of buying it over there.

    I dont know how long the lunch break is. Does anybody know maybe? and if u have small breaks in between?

    How long your breaks are depends on how long your shift is. Generally (in merch at least) for an 8 or 10 hour shift, your lunch is an hour long (with another one or two short breaks).

    For the IP, some folks do take a packed lunch. The cast canteen in Epcot is in the Odyssea (between Test Track and Mexico). It has a subway, a grill (burgers etc.) and a 'dish of the day' type place. You can also get all the usual stuff (salads, muffins etc.). It's not the cheapest of places however (esp. Subway), hence the packed lunches.

    The problem is, depending on where you are in World Showcase, it can take you ages to get to Odysea. So for some, it's really not worth it. Most work locations have a breakroom (with microwave, fridge, tables, TV etc.) Some are nicer than others however. :D

    Also, whilst the Cast Canteens in the main parks are wonderful, there is nothing like as much in the water parks and resorts (although that only affects ICPs).

    If you end up at a waterpark, I'd put money on you losing weight :p There's an awful lot of moving around involved...!

    You'll be assigned to one location at one park or resort. You could, however, pick up 'extra hours' (i.e. overtime) at other locations/parks.

    Really?!?!?
    I thought u can only have extra hours but doing the same job.
    i've heard that visa is released in order to allow u to make a specific job...
    have i been told right??

    ..who knows!..

    Sorry, that comment was targetted at vargas, who I understand is on the ICP (summer program). ICPs use a J1-S visa, which allows work in multiple locations.

    I presume, AlexHope, from your arrival date, that you are a cultural rep, in which case you're using a Q1 visa; that visa, as you've been told, only allows you to work in the specific pavilion at Epcot.

    Sorry for getting your hopes up!

    aaaahhh I can eat subway sandwiches all day long :D:D we have one over here in Holland too.

    The only thing is, that those subs are a little expensive, but it's all worth the money once you've tasted them :p

    but I think most of the time I will pack my own lunch.
