So the incompetent Disenyland president has just been fired. I am just wondering if a similar shakeup will be happening at WDW? Phil Holmes has ruined MK for so long that he really needs to go.

... I'm just curious but who the ____ are you to make a judgement call like that? Do you have any idea what it takes to be a VP in charge of an amusement park? Do you have any clue about day-to-day park operations, budgets, unions, guest safety and the other million things that come into play before we even get to "Show"???

Thank you TP2000! I simply do not have as much patience as you do to explain these things to these people :wave:

Then don't bother posting. :lol:

Yes

I hope this is sarcasm. :lol::lookaroun:hurl:

I respect your opinion, but I'd also like someone to think about maybe he really had family issues.

It was sarcastic.

Look, maybe you don't understand corporate politics. But whenever a healthy guy with grown kids in college, or an unmarried woman with no children resigns suddenly to "spend more time with family" it only means one thing. They were shown the door!

The family line is so played out, I'm surprised they still trot it out as a sorry excuse any more. But they do. It's almost like the corporate string-pullers insist on that being used as the excuse, so people can tell it was a firing or a forced resignation.

Ed will remain living with his wife in Yorba Linda, 20 minutes east of Disneyland. He has freeway commute access to the rest of the Disney corporate empire here in SoCal. His youngest just started Stanford and is now out of the house, and his older son has a post-production film company starting up at prestigious Chapman University in the nearby City of Orange. Ed is going to help his son with that as a hobby. He was only 54, and still had plenty of opportunity left if Disney wanted him to be there.

Somehow, Ed knows there isn't a good opportunity waiting for him any longer at Disney, either in Anaheim or Burbank.

Yes

Bus driver information does not count as a credible source. :ROFLOL:

So, you guys are assuming and presenting it as facts? Is this Fox News?

I have got to admit this post was kind of funny but the facts seem to indicate that Harris was fired.

Assumptions= fact.---Wrong! You fail the test.


It MIGHT be that they were fired,but we have nothing to back that up. The most official thing we heard was that they resigned.

In the business world when top Executives are fired the company releases half truths to make it sound better. It happens everywhere.
