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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

Make sure you send thoughts and prayers too.

Stop being a fucking dick.

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