Conan O'Brien on Disneyland Cutbacks
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Hubby would have a problem with a two packet limit on sugar. He likes a little coffee with his sugar. :D:

I will gladly donate my pickles for the cause! ;)felinefan wrote:But if Disney were to do the same thing, in a way, maybe making small cutbacks, like if they have a lot of people who don't eat the dill pickle spear served with some sandwiches, they could either eliminate the pickle spear entirely or make it a request item. I bet just that alone would save them quite a bit of money each year. Cutbacks shouldn't effect the cast members adversely.
Will my AP have a no-pickle identifying mark?
:flybongo: NO BULL!!!!!:D:

Re: Conan O'Brien on Disneyland Cutbacks
I read this in Reader's Digest back in the day:
Some businessmen were having lunch at a restaurant, and the butter pats had a one-pat limit. One guy, after recieving his butter pat, tried to get the waitress to let him have a second pat of butter for his roll. She said, "Sorry sir, but it's one pat per customer. No exceptions." He said, "Aw, come on now; I can't eat my roll with just one pat of butter. Do you know who I am?" She said no. He said he was the CEO of some big company. The waitress wasn't impressed. She asked him,"Do you know who I am?" He said no. She said, "I'm the one who passes out the butter pats."
Guess he had to learn to eat his roll with only one pat of butter.
