These Awards, since then have been correctly referred to as the "Golden Dole Whippies!" Although for some unknown reason, the award in the shape of a Golden Churro. (Some people mistakenly think the Award is a Golden Container with Popcorn. . . . BUT of course everyone else KNOWS that's that MTV Movie award)

Originally Posted By DlandDug >>It is beneath you, Dug, to accuse someone of doing something they've not done...<< Yes, it is. >>Where did iluv call Oiumet any names?<< I said, precisely (and as you quoted), that calling the present executives names does not bring anything meaningful to the table. That was in direct response to his statement: >>...he spent a whopping five minutes in our complex and was overheard saying to Greg Emmer (another idiot)...<< The antecedent for "he" was Matt Ouimet, and Emmer is the executive to which I refer. I have no problem if anyone here (or in World Events) wants to disagree. I do object to name calling.

Originally Posted By iluvdisneyland I calls it as I sees it. The man has no people skills whatsoever. He's cold, mean, and rude. It is merely my opinion that if we, the underpaid Cast Members of the Disneyland Resort are going to be held to using the SERVICE model and the Four Keys whether with Guests or Cast Members, our management and executives should be held to the same.
Originally Posted By cmpaley I agree with you there, iluv. I think that executives and management that think they're above the rules that they foist upon their "underlings" are hypocrites and don't do very much to bring morale up in the organizations they run.
Originally Posted By DlandDug iluv, for what it is worth, you are the only person, cast or guest, I have ever met who described Matt Ouimet in these terms.
Originally Posted By iluvdisneyland He's great from a Guest perspective, and I truly appreciate what he has done for the park in terms of maintenance, paint, refurbs, etc. But on the Cast side... his administration is trying to turn back the clock to a time long gone. You cannot just hold your employees to an incredibly high expectation that you held them to years ago when most of them were 10 years+ of service and getting paid more (when adjusted for inflation). For the Good Lord's sake, we make less at three or four years that In N' Out starts at!
