    News Walt Disney Imagineering to launch new series 'We Call It Imagineering'

    I never read this thread until now. Very humorous how many people were posting, commenting and engaged leading up to the 1st episode, then between the 1st and 2nd episodes. Kind of died off real fast with comments by the 3rd one. With it actually landing on +, now... wonder if there will be a...

    News New Costumes Debut for Walt Disney World Parking Lot Cast Members

    Wait... I can't be the only one who thought, "well, the shorts are definately shorter." Tan lines? Anyone? =-)

    Jelly rolls - leave and return?

    Not at Disney? Then dead, to me. LoL Typing it doesn't quite sound like Al Pacino, though.

    Jelly rolls - leave and return?

    Ain't gonna lie... Had to Google "Jellyrolls Disney" to even know what you were asking about. Having only done DW with my kids on every trip in the last 23 years, I was at a loss...😄 Now I have a "To Do" if I have an Adults Trip.

    Cast Member Standards

    I COMPLETELY think that guest behavior can, and has had, a dramatic impact on the current group of CMs. My experiences with rude or indifferent CMs in my 10+ visits to DW can be counted on two hands with several fingers unused. Howeva!! I can't even BEGIN to count my experiences with spoiled...

    Cast Member Standards

    Oh, boy... here comes the "get off my lawn!" jokes... But, sadly, I agree... to an extent. Not ready to point the finger at parents, per se, but the whole concept of "work ethic" grows more bleak by the minute. I'm throwing a slow, fastball right down the middle for the "everyone gets a...

    Prices up…profits down…

    I tried to read all they way through this thread so I could reply to all my notes in one post... LOL That would take an 8,539 character post, so lets try something different. The amount a FAMILY of five pay for 4 or more days at a Disney Resort visiting parks daily is no longer "affordable" to...

    Cast Member Standards

    I, like many, used to fantasize about working on Disney World. Even as a retiree, I look at the positions and the pay, and just laugh at my childhood dream. Wonder if Disney Corporate ever looks around at the prices of housing, food, gas, Ride Share, etc.? Or do they just hold the payrates...

    what are you supposed to do when handing back the shakers during Festival of the Lion King

    T This.... this... was your first post? Ok... um... No. No I have never been scratched by a cast member grabbing my shaker. Or scratched by a cast member for any reason, at all. Maybe they were scrambling to gather them all and it was... I dunno... perhaps, just an accident? Or do you feel...

    Sure would be nice....

    ...if someone could update that Sticky Note that is a decade old. I am thinking of applying to Disney in a year or so. This forum was absolutely flushed with fantastic information when it started... But, now? Nothing. I see dozens of people.asking questions but this topic is so rarely used...

    Park Attendance goes down, so Prices go up?

    Um... don't know what that is, and too tired to go look it up, but thanks!

    Park Attendance goes down, so Prices go up?

    Not an Economist, but when your park attendance is decreasing and your net gain is shrinking, is the prudent answer to RAISE prices? I thought when Demand DECREASED, Price should DECREASE. At least that's what I remember from school. Can some smart person explain it to me in a way that makes...
