Can’t even stay at the actual Hotel Disney. 😔

As a former cast member, the pay is atrocious. The “perks” have been slowly removed over the last two decades (I worked there from 2008 - 2016.) I’ve know plenty of cast members that lived six or eight people to a two bedroom apartment.

They’ve lost a ton of employees and standards have dropped significantly.

I’ve got stock in the company too, and I hope they strike and get everything they deserve.

Fuck Iger, he’s been screwing over the cast members for years.

You own stock but you’re rooting for the impoverished? Get absolutely fucked. Instead of that. How about you help you your fellow man instead of enriching yourself? Sounds real fucking good next to “hoping” my stocks pay off.

brygphilomena ,

I’m saying this would probably go against my stocks (that I got as part of the 401k from working next to these people) and I STILL want them to win. Even if my stocks go down.

whostosay ,

Make sure you send thoughts and prayers too.

bibliotectress ,

That was unnecessarily mean. Are you mad at him because he has stock in the company?

whostosay ,

You know what, you’re likely right. But also I’ve been broke sense forever and never had a chance to think about a 401k, which historically has benefits the 1% significantly more than any contributing person. I guess my point is, don’t appear to sympathize if you’re not directly experiencing it or taking action.

bibliotectress ,

Yeah, I know what you mean. I’ve been working in public school libraries for almost 10 years now and get paid basically nothing, and since I’m not a teacher, my retirement accrues so slowly that it’s basically nonexistent. I’ll probably have to work until I die. I should’ve switched careers a long time ago. One more year and I’m out. I decided to wait until my daughter graduates high school, and then I’ll make big life changes.

Just for some perspective, some companies give stock options to employees in lieu of better pay, so the guy you were frustrated with might also be broke.

I hope things look up for you! For all of us!

I revised my comment to him, and I’ll do it for you. I hope we make it through. My original dream was to make the internet a safer place for us all, given it is the amalgamation of all knowledge known so far. I’ve been let down it’s made me sour to people. I hope it gets better, and I hope life lets you continue working in the library because we need it.

Well, I spent several hours talking to them the other day, wishing them well and wishing my support to them. If I was still in the state, I would be out there side by side with my literal fucking friends. I’ll also support the newly formed entertainment union that JUST voted to unionize. I’ll speak on their behalf and tell people how the company treats them unfairly and fucks them over every single day.

What the fuck do you want me to do? Not have taken advantage of my employer while I was working there and taken the employer match? It’s in a 401k, it’s not like I can just get rid of it all for another 30 years and it’s not like I have much.

Stop being a fucking dick.

whostosay ,

You know what man, I really don’t know what I want you to do, and I’m sorry for coming at you like that. I and we have been taking so many godamn L’s I lashed out. I hope you and y’all and we find a way. I don’t have a means to help and I also don’t have anything close to retirement so I assumed you might. I hope it gets better.

brygphilomena ,

Don’t think twice about it, I hope you start to get some Ws soon. We all deserve some grace. I truly hope things get better for you and you can bounce back. I really appreciate the reply and the private message apologizing.

itsnicodegallo ,

This turned out very wholesomely. I hope y’all are both doing alright.

whostosay ,

I hope we all do, the thought of this whole clown show is downright scary.

whostosay ,

Thanks bud. You as well

Some companies give stock as a primary benefit. Some of those companies may provide stock in lieu of some or all of a salary. That doesn’t mean it’s necessary valuable - they typically give you some amount of stock equal to a part of your salary (or some other normal monetary amount), and you would be hopeful the value increases substantially over time.

Just the fact that the other person has stock from their time being employed by Disney is no indicator of their wealth. You can own partial stock as well. It could be worth $50. We don’t know.
