So today during my lunch I went to the McDonalds at DTD. I ordered my food and recieved my cup. At once I reallized that there was something amiss. See if you can.

But it gets better. This was on the back.

Now before you wonder how such an over site could happen, While two or three other CMs were talking about it, Two guys in suits came in, said something to the shift manager and he went about removing everyone of the cups that were still on the rack. :D:

What, because the McDonalds was on Disney Property? Aren't they considered a third party?

I wouldn't have thought it was that big of deal, but I love the fact that they sent over some sort of Disney Feds to take care of the issue. I hope they wore dark sunglasses and had headsets in their ears. That's how I'm going to imagine it anyway.

In fact... Disney probably has a whole army of MiB-type people, who tell you that if you report an incident, they'll never see their family again. I'd like to think so at least.

Although Men In Black is Universal, so I could be wrong. :-)

As far as I know, The were upper level managers from DTD. I reconized on of them from one of those "who's head of what department" posters.

Also makes you wonder if Universal Studios had the same sort of problem!

Not so much. We don't get so much Disney avertising on Universal property (except the guests with Mickey ears, etc.) because Disney doesn't do as much of that type of advertising as we do. My Dad was picking on me last year on the Disney Cruise. We were on Castaway Cay and he went to get me a diet coke. He came back laughing. The Coke can had a coupon for $5 off my Halloween Horror Nights ticket at Universal! The cans on the ship were the generic kind, so I imagine they were more careful to get non-advertising cans, but the ones on the island were all just regular store-bought HHN ads.

What would they be at Disney? MIE - Men in Ears? MION - Men in Oval Nametags?

No, wait: MIC (Men in Costume), which could of course be followed by the K-E-Y, M-O-U-S-E! (Key Enchantment Yeomen, Monitoring Other Uses of Service Equipment?) :rolleyes:

I need sleep.
