I'm told by my Bothan Spies that the walkway goes up the south side of the GCH DVC building opposite Goofy's Flying School. It breaks through the fence behind Corn Dog Castle where I presume all the construction you can see is for the actual entrance gate, which opens up between Corn Dogs and...

You think he gets invited to partys?

No. Most workers under this contract will be making $17.50 now. It isn’t until 6/2023 that the base rate goes up to $18.50. I talked to an old family friend who works in attractions. They said that after the NO vote last month the reality sank in for people. Too many CMs can’t afford to go on...

“Oh, look at how clever we are—nobody has ever thought of lighting up behind this bush!””

I was surprised to learn that the dogs can sniff both. Drugs and explosives. Horticulture has different dogs for bedbugs.

Oh my Mickey! First Sambo’s, then Tiffy’s, and now Capt. Kidd. I’m telling you, the resort district has been going downhill ever since they took out the giant Chevron man and Stovall’s space age decor.

This is similar to what I’ve heard from a fantasyland CM including the boiling water. Most recently they heard from a facilities person that it could be into the new year.

I don’t think so. My sources tell me that they’re disposing of the costumes. I believe Frozen is 99.999% dead.

I heard from my friend in Fantasyland and they said it was extensive flooding throughout the show building. One person said it may not reopen until after the holidays. They are telling guests it’s closed indefinitely.

What I can’t understand is how they were just refilling the flume the night before opening. Unless they had pumped the existing water into tanker trucks, how do you get all that water chlorinated and balanced? I heard the whole ride was flooded and I believe those sets and platforms are...

That’s not what I said. There is a mandate in place for all salaried and non-union employees and most of the unions have signed agreements. There is supposed to be a vote on a new contract for Master Services next week—I have a good friend who is attractions/Teamsters. My understanding is that...

I think some variation of this MUST happen. I’ve been saying for a long time that Disney and Anaheim need to sit down and do some horse trading. But I also see your point that even if they come to terms, they have to sell it to residents.

I haven’t heard of any Disneyland unions “ousting back” against vaccination. In fact, most unions have signed agreements with Disney, including the performers unions. The major holdouts are the Master Service’s Council who are working under an expired contract.

You are wrong. Yes, there are performers in those shows who had Equuity membership. But performers at Disneyland are organized under AGVA.

How about some facts here. Performers at Disneyland are organized under AGVA. At WDW it’s Equity. But either way their contracts don’t allow Disney to unilaterally furlough their workers. Disney had to negotiate with EVERY union and sign a Memorandum of Understanding to cover the details of a...

This times 1000!!! Years ago when I worked attractions I met some fantastic families with kids who had a variety of special needs. As I have both visible and hidden disabilities, this is very close to my heart. I also had a couple of coworkers who had children on the Autism spectrum and we...

I know you meant well, but this is only partially correct advice. Yes, at older attractions it is sufficient to speak to the CM working the "Greeter" position at the ride entrance and identify that you are using an assistive device due to a mobility impairment. This can include wheelchair/ECV...

Well, it didn't help that Flemings just opened on Katella in addition to Ruth's Chris and Morton's down Harbor Blvd.

I rode it a couple of weeks ago and I LOVED the expanded wheelchair boarding area with the decorative screen. The April/December painting looked good, but it was in an odd place. I don't miss the giant urns with the uplights on the right side approaching the load belt.

Instead of "Bright Suns" I always say "Bright Stars and Green Women"!
