Re: When Management Ticks You Off

The other thing you can do when managment pisses you off much is to complete your degree, if you don't have one. Quit the company, move to another city, work in a field that your degree is in and then start your own business. I'm basically my own boss right now and I love it.

Re: Gay Days At Disneyland

I've worked and gone to gay days at WDW every year that I've worked there. I was a little upset this year that I couldn't go with my partner this year, but that happens sometimes. I've always wore a red shirt, and I think that some of the people are quite intresting. Although once I've had a guest a...

Re: Save DRC

When I worked for Disney I've seen the union start to change. It went from a "company union" to one for change. At WDW the problem is that with Florida being a right to work state many people simply do not want to join, but they expect the stewards to jump at their problems, even when the ...

Re: OSHA Investigates Bathroom Breaks at WDW

If you got fired for that you would get your job back with a shitload of backpay, pun intended. If you didn't then Disney would be investagated by OSHA and get a major fine.

Re: OSHA Investigates Bathroom Breaks at WDW

I hated it when managers or coordinators won't let you go. Although I have had a motto that if I had to go I would go. I didn't care about what a manager said. I once had an area manager fired because he wouldn't allow bathroom breaks.

Re: Racism At The Parks?

So, question, in general (and I do mean very generally I know there are thousands, if not millions of exceptions) are black people more quick to use the race card?? From what I've seen it's both yes and no, and that's not just in the parks. Frequently at work I've seen many people use the race card...

I mean if the producers wanted to take photos for an ad for the show they do it durring a dress rehersal with the house lights on and...
