    What to Watch Going Into the Earnings Report

    Well #3, 4 and 6 are *completely* wrong, so I have to assume the rest are as well.

    What to Watch Going Into the Earnings Report

    I really can’t believe that anyone takes the OP’s posts seriously at this point. There is *so* much incorrect info in a few of these items it isn’t even funny.

    News The 'Disney Look' to be further relaxed at Walt Disney World

    Or... you know... you could have shaved right before you went into work like the rest of us as opposed to shaving in the morning and then being shocked when it grew in when you worked in the afternoon...

    Insider info/ AMA on WDW's 50th Ann.

    Nah. I’m good. I’ve been with the company in leadership roles for 25+ years including working at Team Disney and have never seen anyone use TDO except fanboys on the internet. TDA, sure.

    Insider info/ AMA on WDW's 50th Ann.

    I understand that fear, but look how sloppy his wording is, the terms he uses, etc. If he has really worked at WDW for 30 years, he would be 46 at a minimum (and likely older). He is writing like someone in their early 20s. And frankly, using a term like “TDO” is an instant tell that it’s a...

    No one who actually works at WDW calls it TDO. Just sayin’....

    Guest relations services being tested in the Magic Kingdom's Tomorrowland

    That is simply not accurate. Pre MagicBands there were many, MANY days where the line was down the front steps of City Hall. In many ways recovery is MUCH quicker than it used to be. You are evacuated off the attraction? FP added back onto your account automatically. Mickey's Not So...

    Scoop Sanderson Leaving Magic Kingdom

    Not the OP, but I have heard many rumors over the years that he let his "fandom" get to him and he was a bit of a diva and drama queen backstage. Perhaps the OP worked with him? That also might explain why his contract wasn't renewed. Once again, just a guess.

    Cuts coming to every area of parks and resorts - thanks to Shanghai and Paris

    This is a parody account, right? I mean that is the only logical explanation for someone actually thinking that DHS would be closed.... LOL. Dude... take a big breath and step away from WDW for a while. I think you are past the point of looking rationally at anything to do with WDW.

    Cuts coming to every area of parks and resorts - thanks to Shanghai and Paris

    So the deployment thing... Centralized deployment is more of a failed experiment that went on too long, rather than a cost cutting measure (although it will save some $$$). Back in the day (10 years ago or so...) leaders and coordinators would handle all the moves and adjustments in CDS as...

    Premium Parking coming to Walt Disney World's parking lots?

    Up until the recent annual pass changes to include parking you would see it with Seasonal Passholders - they would purchase one annual for their child and get free parking for the rest of the year. You still see it with folks who have longer stay tickets and feel that the difference in cost for...

    Premium Parking coming to Walt Disney World's parking lots?

    DAK parking has not filled to capacity (premium or regular) since premium parking started. There would not be a point where "just premium parking was available" - that is not in the plan or design for premium parking. Not to say that it couldn't change in the future - but it hasn't been talked...

    "Show" keeps getting worse

    This. There are maintenance issues with many AC units on property. There has also been a concerted effort to replace many of the troubled air handlers over the last 5 years or so. Huh? When did I say I didn't work for Disney? I said I don't work in Team Disney or Celebration. I...

    "Show" keeps getting worse

    I realize that no matter what, I won't be able to convince you... and that is fine. It is no skin off my back if you don't believe me. But the simple fact is there has not been a wholesale change in temperature settings in quite a few years. Also, I am not new here. This account may be...

    "Show" keeps getting worse

    I'm assuming you are being sarcastic, but I want to make sure no one is taking you seriously. First of all - in parks engineering leadership positions are not BE (Bonus Eligible) positions. Secondly, temperature settings are determined at a global level and set in the EMS (Energy Management...

    WDW Awakens ...

    It's not a timer w/ tasks. It's based on their break, lunch or off time. Depending on the persons length of shift that means they could be doing one task for somewhere between 2-3 hours on average.

    WDW Awakens ...

    I think it's important to mention that not all areas work exactly like this. Areas which have data to draw from (register counts, food prep times, etc) do use that data to create their workload, but it is still *very much* a manual process. Areas like custodial do not have data like "restroom...

    WDW Awakens ...

    There is a saying of "familiarity breeds contempt" that I think sometimes applies in all fan communities. You get very familiar with something and you start to look for issues and flaws. You stop being influenced by the "magic" so it appears less "magical and perfect" over time, when...
