Just a little taste of what’s going on at my workplace right now.
We have been fighting for a raise because a lot of people who work at Disney have to work 60+ hours a week just to get by.
What was their response? “Ok, everyone gets a bonus. $1000. But not all at once. $500 now and $500 at the end of the year.” (in case some people get fired or quit, so they don’t have to pay the full amount to those people).
Of course, we were like “No, that’s not what we said we wanted. We want a PERMANENT RAISE.”
So Disney was like OK, fine, whoever is NOT part of the union fighting for a raise gets the $1000 bonus 🙂
Meanwhile, we are still fighting for a raise…
I’m sorry, this has 62 notes and that is INCREDIBLE BULLSHIT.
I’ve been watching Disney since I was 4 years old. So basically since i was 4 years old, Disney’s been making a profit off of me; the same way they make a profit off of the average 4 year old.
I don’t care whatdystopian madness of a world you live in, if your primary audience is CHILDREN, you are ethically freakin obligated to behave and treat your employees in a humane manner.
You don’t get to make literally billions of dollars off of kids’ wonder and awe and hope in the world while exploiting and contributing to the suffering of 100,000+ human beings.
You don’t get to fucking do that.
>:[ spread this. What the fuck, Disney?
I am a Disney Fan, a D23 member, and shareholder…and I stand with the cast members. If Disney does not change, then I will not vote for Iger or the rest of the board and ask others to do the same.
instinctually it feels like theres something uh uniquely heinous abt this website’s policy change that effectively punishes/pushes off sex work being immediately followed by pornhub, a corporate platform based on stealing content from sex workers, generously offering to make itself a safe haven for tumblr’s lost & weary porn enthusiasts as a pr friendly twitter clapback
we live in a society where woke-presenting tech companies can push social media platforms to enact mass-scale censorship of LGBT people on the pretenses of keeping monopolistic application distribution services free of “pornography”. bottom text.
on the subject of bots, runescape had literally the best way of dealing with their botting problem:
if an account was detected using bot software, they would be instantly teleported to a hearing from a witchfinder general style npc, where other players could watch and throw rotten tomatoes at them. then the audience could vote on how the person on trial would be killed as punishment, and THEN the botter was permanently banned afterwards. it was the funniest shit ever
tbt when they had no banning system so the gms just teleported hackers into The Void™ for eternal punishment
That was a whole other problem in itself, due to the whole “disc of returning” debacle.
Basically there was an item (disc of returning) that let regular players visit these “banned” players in the void. You could come and go freely and still talk to any banned people there. The only problem was that this item was totally tradeable/droppable, and people visiting were getting tricked by the banned players into giving the item up to them, or dropping it so it would despawn.
Basically people were pulling some body-snatcher shit, and banned players were taking the place of innocent players through the disc of returning to get back into the game, and leaving behind the innocent ones trapped in their place. Runescape was fucked up lmao
