News Walt Disney World to resume sales of Annual Passes (New sales resume April 20, 2023)

[Ayla]

On a slightly different note regarding the early wake up call to order an AP this morning

The Florida Division of Emergency Management issued an apology: "We know a 4:45 AM wake up call isn't ideal FLSERT wants to apologize for the early morning text. Each month, we test #emergencyalerts on a variety of platforms. This alert was supposed to be on TV, and not disturb anyone already sleeping. We are taking the appropriate action to ensure this will never happen again and that only true emergencies are sent as alerts in the middle of the night."

You forgot the cutesy, obnoxious emoji they included in the message.

Why would they invest anything into IT when people CONTINUE to throw money at them for their terrible service?! They don't need to invest anything, based on these drooling posts.

they did then they got rid of them, just to rehire them for 3-4x the cost as consultants...

 

[ChrisFL]

What time did you enter the VQ?

6:45 AM ish?

the dev team is the only team that pays somewhat decent, their infrastructure IT guys dont get paid that great, thats why no one applies for them lol.
I remember a few recruiters looking for python guys for 85/hour but the regular IT staff that deals with servers are like 70-80k range with limited resources.

Same here. Still showing "more than an hour" and I am about half-way through the progress bar.

So, after countless issues on the website, I decided to call. 2 hours later, I finally have 4 Incredi-Passes and was able to use my Disneygifts to purchase.

My husband was contacted by a recruiter for Disney IT for an IT manager position. It was temp to perm, with no grantees of permanent employment, no benefits as being a temp, and the salary was half of what he makes now. He declined.
