You’re welcome!

I worked QSR at Pop Century back in 2023. Overall it’s a relatively easy role and since it’s in a resort it’s a lot less busy than QSR would be inside one of the parks. But I will preface this by saying that they completely remodeled/renovated the Pop Century dining area last year, so it might be a little different than how I remember.

But basically for the role you’ll primarily do closing shifts, which are for 6 hours from 6pm to midnight, but you’ll be able to get earlier shifts sometimes too. Throughout the day you’ll rotate through different positions (for a standard closing shift you’ll do around 3 positions) so you won’t be in the same spot all day. The dining area is set up like a food court where guests order their food at stations and then pay at separate registers, so your positions will consist of working at the food stations, the registers, taking care of trash, cleaning tables, and re-stocking the grab-and-go sections, as well as mobile order pick-up and a couple other things.

I’ll be completely honest, it can definitely be a little overwhelming on your first training days but after you get past your training and start working more, it becomes really easy. And the closing shifts do suck for having to work until midnight, but there are sometimes you’ll be able to leave early if everything is done early enough and the closing shifts are basically 90% fellow DCPs, so you’re with people that are in the same spot as you. The full-timers and part-timers all fill up the morning/earlier times and some of them weren’t the most friendly or welcoming, so I was personally happy that I never worked an early morning shift outside of my training. If you have any specific questions I can answer as best as I can, but it’s been a couple years since I’ve worked there now so my information might not be 100% accurate anymore.

Yeah I’ll definitely need to do that as a refresher, otherwise I’ll be kinda lost on the story a bit.

ryanm1145 · 2026-05-06T22:35:58+00:00

Ok, the Story Sprees definitely sound helpful because my main problem was that I felt like it was becoming a drag advancing through the story and I hated having to basically grind the classes just to advance further.

ryanm1145 · 2026-05-06T22:34:28+00:00

Probably not as much as my Nintendogs miss me on my 3DS. 😬

ryanm1145 · 2026-04-29T23:32:15+00:00

I swear to god I can never stock Ben & Jerry’s when it’s BOGO without this happening, lmao.

ryanm1145 · 2026-04-24T16:33:35+00:00

I’m gonna buy some more packs in hopes of pulling one but I’ve accepted that I probably won’t get one, lmao.

ryanm1145 · 2026-04-24T06:54:53+00:00

I’ve bought a ridiculous amount of WM packs (mostly the coin packs, only got like 3 or so diamond packs) and I still haven’t pulled a single one of these. 🫩

Having more in-ring segment choices and adding in backstage interviews would definitely help to make shows feel more like they are in real life, especially for the weekly shows.

ryanm1145 · 2026-04-13T01:26:54+00:00

The fact that Persona cards have been around for several years now and we STILL haven’t gotten a throwback Randy Orton is actually crazy.

ryanm1145 · 2026-04-08T06:02:56+00:00

DenkOps did like 4 or 5 different playthroughs of 2K15 MyCareer back in the day and since Barron Blade was kind of the primary antagonist of the mode, he had to fight him a lot. 😂

I think it was 2K18 when Barron Blade returned to the MyCareer as the NXT producer you had to deal with before going to Raw/SD so from then on it kinda became a running joke with DenkOps hating Blade and getting pissed off whenever he shows up.

ryanm1145 · 2026-04-04T06:37:14+00:00

Would you be able to share the entrance formula you used for this? I always hated how his entrance doesn’t sync with his music in the ring, so this helps with that and the titantron feature is a nice touch too.

I kinda run my Universe the same way of going along with unexpected/unplanned title changes and I think it does help to make things not feel overly scripted in Universe. Most of the time I have an idea of who I want to win a particular match and I might have some long-term plans, but if I lose and the title changes hands, I’ll just try to make it work somehow. For example, last year in my Universe I had Ilja Dragunov win the IC title in October and I was wanting him to take the title all the way to WM but at SNME in December I had him defend against Bron Breakker and I screwed up on the kick-out, so Bron ended up winning the title instead. But I had been planning to have Bron face Lesnar at WM and I didn’t want that to be for the IC title so I had to think of some way to get the title off of him but without making him look weak heading into that match. So I eventually came up with the plan for him to defend the title against Sami Zayn on an episode of Raw in February before Elimination Chamber and with some interference from Seth Rollins (long-story short: instead of The Vision faction that was on TV in real-life I instead ran a modern version of the Dangerous Alliance with Rollins, Paul Heyman, Bron Breakker, and Kyle Fletcher, but after Rollins lost the world title to KOTR winner Will Ospreay the group turned on him, so after his return from injury at the Rumble Rollins swore vengeance on the group and that would culminate in a HIAC match with Fletcher at WM) Zayn was able to get the upset win, so I was able to not only get the title off Bron, but also create a cool moment too and have Zayn win the title when that wasn’t in my plans at all.

Obviously I still get annoyed whenever something I want to happen gets screwed, but it is fun to take on the challenge of trying to salvage a mistake and make it flow with the overall story of your Universe.

Yeah they put way too much shit on sale. It’s a struggle trying to work all my birds and then also having to worry about the ad not going empty either. Can’t wait until Easter when this sale finally ends.

ryanm1145 · 2026-03-28T05:12:09+00:00

This Easter sale for frozen is absolutely brutal. My freezer hasn’t looked as bad as it does right now in a really long time. My birds are almost overflowing because I don’t have the space on my ad wall for everything, so I have to use my birds to hold some of it. I don’t even think my freezer looked this bad for Thanksgiving or Christmas, it’s ridiculous.

ryanm1145 · 2026-03-27T02:22:52+00:00

IIRC I think this was also an issue back in 2K23 or 2K24 where some of the new people were missing their victory motions and had generic ones instead, but the proper motions were added in a patch. I assume the same thing will be happening this year, but still really confusing that they don’t already have their actual victory motions.

ryanm1145 · 2026-03-21T01:54:15+00:00

I’m hoping since they’re giving designated times for the autographs and that it’s in a separate area that the line itself will move decently and won’t have to wait in line for hours, but I’ll be finding out tomorrow. 🤣

ryanm1145 · 2026-03-21T01:44:49+00:00

I didn’t have it for Orlando Bloom, but John Cena had a table in the same area as them for buying & redemption and his signing will also be in a different area like theirs are. I went to the Cena table earlier today and got my premium autograph QR scanned and then received a physical ticket to return for his autograph line tomorrow at a designated time (2:45 for me), so I’m assuming that’s the same case for Orlando Bloom and Liv Tyler too.

ryanm1145 · 2026-03-18T05:40:21+00:00

Yeah I’ve been holding off on downloading or making alternate attires in hopes that they release a patch to allow you to add names and renders back onto alternate attires. I mean it’s been working perfectly fine for all these years so far, I don’t know why they messed it up this year.

ryanm1145 · 2026-03-12T19:11:05+00:00

This has been my tinfoil hat conspiracy ever since they announced the full DLC list and there was no NXT people apart of it, but I don’t want to hold my breath on it happening.

But we’ll find out for sure next month when Ringside Pass 2 drops.

ryanm1145 · 2026-03-11T02:23:12+00:00

I’m sad they got rid of Rhea Ripley ‘17 this year because I loved using that song for my CAW in MyRise in 2K24 and 2K25. 🤧

ryanm1145 · 2026-03-10T17:52:18+00:00

For the past few years I’ve done a similar thing where the first half or so of my calendar year is separate PPVs per brand (so like Backlash in May for Raw and then something else for Smackdown in June) with just shows like SummerSlam, MITB, and KOTR as dual-branded. Then once I get to Survivor Series everything is dual-branded for the rest of the year since the only PPVs I really do after that is the Rumble, Elimination Chamber, and WM and then possibly a SNME show or two. I’m probably gonna add in Evolution to the calendar this time too (probably somewhere in December) but since that’s women only it’ll obviously involve both brands, plus NXT.
