How Orwellian can you get?!
"We're going to help make healthy Americans by reducing portion sizes. This also helps save the planet by reducing waste!"
What "portion sizes" are we talking about here? Smaller Churros? Only one skewer at Ohanas?! How about "All you care to enjoy" buffets be removed?
Disney seems to forget they're a LUXURY brand and not a necessity. Genie+ is a flash in the pan and while it's profitable now their overall crowd sizes are going to drop as word spreads. Eventually people are going to figure out that they're severely overpaying for an illusion with bad food (yeah - ALL Disney Dining is surprisingly mediocre) and spending an additional $100 to get onto a 50 year old ride.
I love DisneyWorld - don't get me wrong - but at some point you have to wonder what the point is as they continue to cut the parks to the bone while upping the costs to astronomical levels and finding new ways to charge you for things that were "inclusive" mere months ago.
I'm not even against them raising costs but to do that while cutting parades, charging you for resort parking, cutting entertainment, charging you for fast passes, cutting food portions... ummm... no.

Not 'awash'.....
Immersed, of course!
So 'immersed'....
Like, immersed in water over my head and having trouble breathing 'immersed' at what I'm witnessing.

I mean occupancy is an issue right? 200 or so rooms with guests only staying 2 days? Iddk
Lolololol
This hits home, I was casually looking through USAA’s member perks discounts for DCL, it was close to shaving 2k off the price but it was still too high for me I guess.
OMGGG here I was happy to go on another carnival cruise.
For sure the days of stack ‘em high and watch them fly are long gone
He’s an executive so no lolol

What’s making them money now, will be the reason they fail later…Bobby is chasing a quarterly report that never ends and only drives them to squeeze all of us more.
He doesn’t care…he’s just along until the severance package is guaranteed.
If you all think this is bad, just wait…

What were you expecting? Josh interrupting the call and declaring a mutiny?

No, but he’s part of the conversation, and he’s probably encouraging these great ideas.
I guess if one has an active fantasy life, then anything is imaginable.
It will be slow changes. Things don't just switch off. Josh may be a sharp difference of leadership mentality, but I have not seen a ton park operation wise that tells me not. The concern there is, he was chosen to be where he is for a long period of time for a reason by the others above him. So he is in a similar school of thought somewhere.
I have heard anecdotal many times that would depict him as much more Cast oriented. Which would be a start.
