OMG she had a fiance. that must have been sooo hard for that person. i cant imagine losing my future wife in that way. i don't have a fiance but a girlfriend and if i lost her in that manner i would lose my mind in grief. i am so sorry again for how that happened. How could Disney be soo cold hearted to one of their own who had to wear a cast in order to heal?? So shocking.
Because they are pockets of the future
It is a company like any other. We tend to forget it is a business in the hospitality/entertainment industry. All they will care is the bottom line.
Excuse me for not accepting your cynical view of the world. Just because its a business does not mean people dont come first.
It is not a cynical view of the world. Just because we love the product, doesn't mean that the company does not focus on the bottom line. It is a basic concept of keeping a business going. If WDW thought of people first, they would pay their CMs better, they would offer better benefits, and they would even offer a sliding scale for entry so ALL families could experience WDW if they wanted to within their means to spend.
Not really. Zoos do not allow their employees to be smokers at all. They do random nicotine screenings and have a zero tolerance policy. People can smoke in the privacy of their homes and have for decades. But the zoo's policy says, "Not if you work here." Many people have to relinquish some of their personal preferences and 'rights' to work for a particular company. If people don't like the restrictions they can work elsewhere or for themselves.
Wouldn't that be nice if all companies required that. It would get rid of the jerk millennial with the vape stick outside the front door of the office.
The idea that thinking of people is somehow incompatible with making money is just hogwash. A lazy way to rationalize poor behavior.
They are not incompatible. But a global business like WDW focuses on the bottom line as a publicly traded company with shareholders. As such, low-level employees tend to be expendable and easily replaceable. Just because you like their product, you should not be blinded by what they are at the end of the day--a conglomerate which goal is to make money.
Being a conglomerate or publicly traded is still just excuses.
Ok. You're expressing your opinion, I'm stating facts. And since you don't know my business background, nor I know yours, we can leave it at that.
This is when I step away. Way too busy to continue the chat.
Kinda of funny...when I used to tell my teacher I was too busy to "show my work" on how I came up with the answer I would get those questions marked wrong.
In 30 days is my trip, and I will no longer be using this board. I'm not in the cult of Disney, and accurate statements are always taken like an insult to WDW.Kinda of funny...when I used to tell my teacher I was too busy to "show my work" on how I came up with the answer I would get those questions marked wrong.
