Could this finally be the end for Chapek?

That’s kind of where I landed on that as well. Years ago, I had a personal blog which I used originally to talk about writing in general, but then transitioned to a blog dedicated to parenting. Specifically, I would share anecdotes of parenting 4 kids (at the time), while also providing parenting advice. I had developed a following for a while. But, it ended up taking more time than I really wanted to dedicate to it, so I eventually just took it down.

Friday afternoon breaking news. Chapek has hiring freeze at Disney

If you read the details it’s a targeted hiring freeze and it seems aimed on the content side specifically. I’ve heard that hiring at the parks is still continuing, hopefully that’s true.

But this is what happens when Wall Street throws a tantrum.

You end up with someone like me: a perfectionist with a crippling fear of failure.

Really? It usually just pops into my head like the Triple Dent gum commerical.

(huh, y’know, the animation is a LOT funnier if you’re not distracted by the story going on.)
