“May” be discharged, I’d hope they’d factor intent into the decision though, a CM saying shi* after slipping and dropping a tray of dishes in a restaurant, or an overexcited exec saying wait til you see this cool shi*, would hopefully be treated differently than a CM who calls a difficult guest a shi*head to their face.
Don’t you know pointing out hypocrisy to those who don’t agree is the definition of outrage these days!
I have never been allowed to “openly curse” - meaning in public guest / client areas in any job I’ve had.
What happened to Kevin!? Is he still around anywhere?
Yes Kevin Yee! I agree, I always enjoyed his articles. I think he also used the term “rizzo factor” - quoting Rizzo in muppet vision saying “they are tourists, what do they know!”
I’ve burned my hand handling the boiling hot nacho cheese sauce working at Taco Bell when I was a kid. I cursed out loud in front of crew and guests and luckily I wasn’t fired.
When you're the head of Marvel Studios, you can say whatever you want, too.
Kevin Feige Drops F-Bombs Introducing 9 Minutes of ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ at CinemaCon
In years past, a Disney presentation at CinemaCon would be a rather family-friendly affair. Not so this year, with the raunchy, R-rated Deadpool & Wolverine taking center stage to show off extensive footage from project. The Disney presentation began with a “silence your phone” PSA, with...www.yahoo.com
Tonight at the D23 Expo media event, WDI President Bruce Vaughn inaugurated this year's WDI Pavilion with a little speech on stage in front of assembled media and key influencers with prepared remarks. And he dropped a four letter cuss word, just to prove how cool and hip he is, and how cool and hip WDI now is under his leadership.
Think about this. If a Jungle Cruise Skipper dropped that same four letter cuss word in their spiel, or a frazzled CM dropped that four letter word while dealing with a customer yelling about them about a broken down ride, or a messed up cheeseburger order, or cancelled fireworks show due to winds at higher elevations, that hourly CM would be immediately fired for swearing in front of customers. I would imagine even a Dockers-clad manager would be fired under the same circumstances if they were caught swearing in front of customers "onstage" in the Parks.
But if you are a senior executive, apparently those rules no longer apply to you. Or worse, the rules have now changed and the hourly CM's, Crew Members and Imagineers who work in the Disney Experiences division reporting to Josh D'Amaro are now allowed to swear into microphones in onstage environments while delivering prepared remarks to paying customers.
A new era has dawned...

How did you get that footage of Josh and Bruce!? That’s confidential!!!! I’m telling! Haha
I’ve seen the manager at work cursing, calling out a supervisor for being “ Mexican” and a women. That has got him NO disciplinary action despite having so many witnesses.
