oops
But not every complex is the same as mine. DD works in FL and all the PT CMās there get hours every week.
Good point. 2pm is never going away

Perhaps.
You knowā¦I was just watching a VLOG (I think Mickey Views???) where he mentioned how Disney is doing things to try to drive more people to EP and AK, since HS and MK are really at crowd limits, were AK and EP can handle more crowds.
Soā¦this does make me think there is motivation for Disney to start doing the āpick your parks on a multiday ticketā thingā¦because if people see that going to MK or HS costs more, they might be more likely to choose AK and EPā¦and then pay the upcharge for PH. (And, charge more for PH, as youā¦uhā¦suggested.)
Soā¦
in summaryā¦
I like the suggestions people gave for going bowling, or watching a movie, or doing mini-golf.
No word on changes to park hopping
heh different thread
But yesā¦ the urge/need for WDW to start having a surplus of supplemental activities is becoming significant.
Oh, greatā¦even my attempt to get back on topic was off topic!
I agree with this
Whatever their actual reason for this, their stated reason is for optics only, to give guests some excuse to believe to allay the frustration that comes from it
There is one planned soon, isnāt there? Lenās leading one?
Well they canāt very well say āso we can gouge you for G+ā now, can they?
They donāt have to. IYKYK (and you seem to!)
But if this were any other company, youād be trained and moved to where you could do the most good (read: keep the customer happy so they can keep throwing money). In their eyes, If you didnāt like it, youād obviously be free to quit, but otherwise āyou go where we tell you.ā
The fact that youāre all not shuffled around and basically pulling just shy of FT hours is kinda telling.
You mean cross train and float team members?
Companies do this to meet customer need and demand?
How odd.
sometimes they even take managers out of their positions and make them work the proverbial floor.
The business world is kooky dooks.
You donāt sayā¦
Oh, BRB, I gotta take a triage call. Iām a little short handed today and the patients are needy!
Regular Strength Tylenol: helping you piss in the wind since forever.
So this came up in the recent contract dispute. I donāt know all the details but I heard they are thinking of changing the rule so PT CMās can transfer at 6 months like FT. Right now it is 1 year.
They have also started doing a lot more Land Training for PT CMās DD is now Land trained in FL so she can work at WTP, MTP, PP, IASW, PFH, Philhar and the carousel. She is also trained as a relief coordinator in 2 of those plus fireworks. This is something that was usually only allowed for FT. CP still canāt do this, they just arenāt here long enough. But you have to put in for this and they donāt allow everyone to do it
There are also proficiency rules. Anytime anything is changed, no matter how small, every CM has to pass the proficiency test before they can work. This is especially strict at attractions, also why you are much more safe at a Disney park than say Icon park. So if you transfer to a new area you can continue to pick up shifts in your old area until you lose proficiencies.
So in my mind, this would fall to an area Leader to manage. They would provide just-in-time training to any CM who was without the competency/proficiency that was updated in the change.
Thatāsā¦ actually exactly what I do
What Iām trying to say is that a CM selling you a churro canāt just be sent over to TRON to āhelp outā
Interestingā¦ so Disneyās policy is to essentially lock you into your space for a period of time and you have to actively try and expand beyond it? Obviously quite different than most where, as I said, they move you when they feel like.
Yeah that part makes sense. Safety not withstanding, my company has something similar. You canāt be left alone until you can prove you can do the job. Thereās certifications you gotta go through that are only good for a period of time.
Right but if the area isnāt your āhomeā anymore then you arenāt going to be on their roster to be updated. Now that DD is a trainer she spent whole shift with 2 other trainers swapping out the CMās that were working to go backstage to do D-learning for an update.
