Yea, and he could be standing outside the restroom “supervising” or making small talk instead. Please, there’s absolutely NOTHING WRONG with doing a little dirty work. If more executives did that, it would boost worker morale immensely. CM morale and guest OPTICS…as important as almost any other aspect of the gig…maybe you’re an executive and don’t want to “lower” yourself??
I've noticed the cast in business attire walk in the park with those picker things. I've seen them pick up trash with their picker a number of times. Surely helps trying to keep the place cleaner.
It's management theatre, making it look to to people like they are one of the team. A good manager would ensure enough staff are available to do that job not walk around with a litter picker looking like they are doing something. It's typical of Disney's poor management style, all style no substance
An executive is paid his or her salary whether making important decisions, deleting e-mails, cleaning, or playing Candy Crush. At any rate, anywhere that I've worked, this is typically not designed as management theater to boost morale. Instead, its goal is to engender empathy amongst the management team and give them genuine exposure to the problems their employees encounter on a daily basis. Sometimes, it's a regularly scheduled activity while other times it's specially organized by a research team to expose managers to a very specific problem space. It's not terribly different from going on walk-alongs, ride-alongs, or call listening sessions to hear what your customers are saying and observe how your employees are managing customer service interactions.
How many cast members are on shift at a given time is not at the sole discretion of local leadership. They don’t even write the schedules
Enough staff? is available, maybe in a fantasy world, not real world.
Irrelevant. His salary is a sunk cost -- he costs them that much per hour whether he's monetizing the toilets or scrubbing them. If nobody else is available to scrub toilets, he's just as good as Charlie Castmember.
I would pay to see him in Thick glasses and a mullet wig as his disguise. I think if he ever did attempt that it would end similar to the last episode of the last season of "Handmaid's Tale"
ONLY because prices of resort rooms and food are insane and ppl are paying them. I’m happy to report we saw VERY few ppl last week stupid enough to buy the crappy merch Disney spits out.
I am convinced most people are buying many of these things to resell and ignoring merch if there is no money to be made. So much of it is just not enticing people to make impulse buys for themselves. People just don't wait hours in like for a popcorn bucket or swarm new merch because they are excited to buy for themselves. They so because it's a job.
Would I stand in a 2 hour line for a popcorn bucket? Nope, but I understand things that people collect…back in the day, I’ve waited 2 hours in line for Hess trucks on thanksgiving morning!
Yess!! I love those.
I think the term you're looking for is Fun and Wonder(TM)
