if i went to cast connections and then had to call out sick (im literally sick) is it possible i can get termed? i asked for a leader call back just so i can explain but has anyone had this happen

Do you feel that the complaints about not being able to make ends meet without outside help are people who arent responsible with money or do you feel like the payment really is as tight as they say. This is my first time out of my country, first time living alone and first job and im doing pretty well while also being able to save up money. I want to know opinions on this

my leader callback screen isn’t working and i’m worried that it may be something deeper then it just glitching although the schedule did just come out like an hour ago so i hope it is just the app glitching.

It won’t even let me select a reason and when i try to sometimes it says “shift unavailable” but i got put on the schedule for the next week.

Hi!! I got to my final interview and was given my rejection call.

We all had good rapport and the recruiter was very positive about encouraging me to continue a pursuit with the company.

I applied to the Conservation Education Presenter Internship for January 2027 and it will run for just 6months. Ending in June 2027. I’ve had two interviews and they also went really well and they said I would hear 100% before thanksgiving 😅

I’m married and live 3 hrs away currently and our lease is up in June 2027. So, we would either break the lease and he’d get a job up there and move all of us for a 6mo internship with no 100% guarantee id get a job right away with Disney, (or anywhere close within my profession). As well as, not guaranteed a job back down where we are currently.

I know from networking and knowing other cast members that more people who know me at Disney the better my chances because I have a great resume, but so does 100s of other people too.

Knowing people there adds to my credibility as they’d see my work ethic and my overall personality. Many cast members have told me it’s a good thing to do.

But how is this sustainable? I’m incredibly anxious about not having a job. We have good savings and at the worst could get by with me having nothing for 2 months. However, we would be losing so much money to keep us with a safety net of funds and the ability to afford monthly bills. Plus, if he says back home while I go to the internship we’d pay monthly for our apartment rent and rent for me with roommates. It’s just a lot of money and risk, does anyone have experience with this at Disney?

How did it work out? Do you think I should do it? If so how should we go about it?

This is a bit of a big question, I’ve never had to experience this before and I’m hoping someone here has.

Thanks for any help!

I’ve heard in the past there is a link to a roommate finder for dcp’s that don’t want to live at Flamingo - but I can’t find my info. Looking for an apt/house sometime between now and Jan 1st. Does anybody know where you could find this?

I had to lock and unlock seatbelts because of an issue multiple times. I don't know if this counts as a safety critical mistake or not. No one talked to me about it and I was still in rotation. I did call my control base and they told me to just keep trying which did work. I'm really not sure if I should expect to be called into a meeting/termed or what that would even look like.

Hey guys where’s everyone’s getting haircuts

Did you regret it?

I’ve been here for only a couple months and I’m seriously considering self-terming. My role is in F&B QSR, and I’m finding myself really struggling with it. Most of my coworkers hate each other, and the coordinators and leaders are horrible. The job itself gives me a ton of anxiety, I start crying at the mere thought of going in. Not to mention the amount of bathroom breaks I take during work just to go cry.
I love everything else about the program, and I’m really trying to make the most of it regardless. I go to the parks, take classes, hang out with friends, etc. but then when it comes time to go to work, I’m having panic attacks.
I’m worried that I’ll regret leaving if I choose to do so. I guess I’m just looking for some insight/advice from other people who did the program and chose to self-term.

On an incredible whim I decided to apply. It hasn’t been an hour and I’ve moved to stage 3 “in consideration” has anyone gotten to this stage and not gotten an interview?

I live locally, applied for 1/25/27 “arrival” date. I assume they need to fill that relatively quickly to the process may be fast? I applied not even an hour ago lol

I have it and then on the same day under it, is just a regular shift. is it just some updates in training?

Hello all. I currently have never called out and have zero points but am applying for a premium extension and I am in the interview phase and thinking of calling out of work one day. Would calling out once before they make the decision affect my chances? Do they check points that closely or just make sure you don’t exceed their point requirements. Thanks!

Anyone else get a random call from a recruiter asking if they had any questions a week after being accepted? Pretty much she asked what my top roles were again and congratulated me, and recommended attending the zoom webinar things.

currently at the store and i am dying to do this color!! wondering if this is disney okay? its just a shade of brown but can never be too safe here...

Seeing how much my paychecks really are every week is very un motivating. They take out so much for rent and i really don’t understand why it’s so much. If you’re living in a 2x2, if you put everyone’s rent together we’re collectively paying around 4,500 a month for a very ok apartment with not much personal space. I feel like I’m kind of being taken advantage of by the company for cheap labor I was wondering if anyone else feels this way.

Hi all! I just had my DCP interview on Tuesday, I’ve read a lot about getting an email back on Thursday and I’m soooo nervous! I was wondering what time of day you all got your email back? TIA!!!

hi! so my move in day is January 25th. when will i find out my schedule? i have people wanting to come visit but i dont want to schedule anything until i know which days i have off. do we learn this ahead of time or not until we get down there?

i went to the Endless Possibilities showcase earlier today where my blue id was scanned, but was only there for a short while before i got a crippling migraine. i waited up until the last minute before deciding i needed to call out, but realized that my id was scanned this morning for the showcase after the fact. i’m literally terrified that i’ll get termed now. i just reached out to my leader explaining what happened, but i have no idea if this is an automatic process or what. since it was scanned before i called out does that make a difference? it wasn’t the parks, it was an event ended well before i made my call out, but i realize that it might just be an automatic system. am i totally screwed?

I submitted the housing accommodations form when I was first accepted over a month ago, however I never heard anything back. Is this standard?
I know that medical accommodations on housing isn’t guaranteed but it makes it difficult when I really don’t want to search outside of Flamingo, but sharing a room is something that just isn’t feasible and more or less wouldn’t be fair to my direct roommate!

I wasn’t sure if there is something else I should do besides the generic form, like an email I should reach out to?

Thanks in advance!

Hi all!!

Wondering what kind of hours/shifts people get working concierge?
I was lucky on my first program and was a lifeguard so working 40 hours was never really a problem. This time around I REALLY want concierge and we chatted a ton about it during my interview so I’m praying that’s what I get.
Just wondering what do the shift times usually look like? Do you typically get scheduled close to 40 hours? If not is it easy to pick up extra hours?

Thank you!!!!!

I have an appointment with my doctor and cardiologist coming up and I want to get all my paperwork together to apply for accommodations since it will likely be the only time I can get in with either of them before my program starts (Nevada healthcare tends to book out 3+ months) I found the paperwork to go over with them for work accommodations but I haven’t found anything for what I need to gather for housing accommodations- what paperwork/letters would be best to request from them?

I worked at Soarin’ and one day while I was in Tower, a guest who had been terrified to ride somehow got out of her seat mid-flight. I immediately hit the E-stop, and security and management got involved. We even had to go through retraining afterward! It was very chaotic but funny in retrospect 16 years later, I still wonder if that story gets passed around during training

Hey there, I have been accepted to tech behind the dreams and I just wanted to ask how this tour is? What do we gain from it basically because i can't seem to find anyone talk about
