My Job Interview/Proposal

Ha roo, pups and cool cats!  It's me, Zim.  As I mentioned yesterday, I came up with a great idea for a Summer job.  For the past few weeks, I've seen this really cool trolley parked over by the Giant's Castle.  I was curious about it so I did a little research and learned that you can rent it out by the hour.  Hmm...  I asked Mom to take me over to where it is so I could see if the trolley would fit into my Summer job plans.

Here I am, checking it out:

Let me back up a bit and tell you my plan...

My idea is to rent out the trolley and give tours of the Kansas Ocean!!!  Seriously!!!  It's becoming quite the hot spot these days, so can't you just picture me going over the transoceanic bridge on the trolley, then cruising along the boardwalk?  The tourists would go crazy for something like that, don't you think?

We could have a postcard made ...

...made using that shot (like we did with another one!) and sell it in the gift shops lining the boardwalk!

I really think I'm on to something here!

"All aboard for the Kansas Ocean!"

Hmm.  No takers yet.

"Ha roo?"

OK.  I can wait.  The tourists will be lining up in no time.

I sure hope this pans out!  It could be a REALLY fun Summer!

Play bows,
Zim

  1. I just knew your summer job had something to do with a motorized vehicle. I think that sounds like a great plan and I hope you get some takers soon.

  9. Zim, that is an incredible idea. How much are you going to charge, how often will you run a day, have you thought about serving snacks or even a dinner menue ride.

    I think converting it to a dinner car and chargine $50 bucks a person is a real money maker.

    Hey, I could be one of your servers, or when you get to the ocean, you could offer pick nicking.

    OK Bert, enough......

  10. Once the tourists line up, you are going to make some green papers. Looks like a great summer job

  13. Hi Zimmy! Mom and I wanted to stop by and say hi. We have been missing you guys A LOT!!!! Things are kinda crazy here for us right now and we aren't able to do any blogging but we've been missing our furiends so much we thought we'd take a few minutes to drop by and visit. I think that is the perfect job for you!

    Love and hugs,
    Taffy

  18. Maybe you need to rename it the ZIM Trolley? That's a zippier name that should be easier to market. Is Dave going to drive while you do the tour talking? Do you have a local paper or tv station that might do a feature piece on your new enterprise, for some free publicity? If we didn't live 1500 miles away, we'd be there in a flash. Oh! How about letting the trolley double as a pet party bus? You could sponsor pet birthday parties at the Kansas Ocean.
