Criteria To Be A Dallas Santa For Hire

By Arthur Davis


As the holidays approach each year, you might look for ways to earn extra money. Rather than take a job working at a fast food restaurant or in a retail store, you might want to take a gig that is more relaxed and fun. You also may want something that lets you use your imagination and creativity. Many organizations each year look for people to put on a big red and white suit and assure children that their Christmas wishes will come true. You could earn extra money by working as a Dallas Santa for hire.

You probably already know you will encounter countless children during your stint in this gig. Each child who comes up to you will expect you to act, speak, and look like the real thing. You will be expected to get into and stay in character throughout the entirety of your shift. This staying in character can be challenging, however, when you encounter circumstances that would test the patience of most people.

This task can be difficult when kids throw temper tantrums, scream, and cry when they sit on your lap. You might feel frustrated and like you want to get up and walk away. However, you are expected to keep a smile on your face and act jolly and kind. You cannot give into your emotions.

Alternatively, you might get some kids who ask for the most heartbreaking of things that you would not expect from a child. For instance, it has been known that some kids will ask for a dead pet to be brought back to life or a parent who abandoned the family to come back and love his or her children again. These stories might compel you to show emotions that should be hidden.

Even if you are the best of actors, you also are required to pass a background check. Most organizations that retain temporary Santas put these people through background checks to look for offenses that could put children in harm's way. Your application for employment may require you to agree to undergo a background check.

If you have a criminal record, you may need to disclose the details of it prior to being hired. Crimes that involve assault, burglary, or anything that could put children at risk will generally bar you from employment. However, misdemeanors like speeding may be overlooked and allow you to still be hired.

Finally, the company that employs you may expect you to have good hygiene. You might be asked to brush your teeth thoroughly before coming to work. You also will be required to wear deodorant and wash your face. Children are not accustomed to thinking of the jolly old elf as dirty or unkempt.

These are some of the examples of criteria you can predictably encounter when you apply to be a Santa. They ensure you are a safe individual to be around and that you also will look and play the part. When you believe they will be no problem to fulfill, you might want to put your application in to start earning extra money for the holidays.
