Honestly they run those parks better than some military installations I've been on



You walk up to a manager in slacks or a guy in all white picking up trash and you will probably get the answer you needed.

I was also amazed at how many pretty girls were doing crap jobs. Usually pretty girls get the better gigs in a service industry? Disney appears to make you pay your dues regardless of looks. I'm sure they climb faster in the organization, but pretty or no pretty, you may get handed a mop or broom.

In addition, the engineering involved to keep EVERYTHING out of sight is amazing. You see NOTHING under construction! It all has a green mesh screen. Also, you see nothing until you pay to see it. The Epcot ball/globe is behind trees. The minute you turn into the parking lot AFTER paying, BOOM there it is. As you drive down the highway it looks like the trees are sculpted to be just high enoug to block you view. Wanna see it? Pay Uncle Walt!

The sightlines and sound thresholds within the parks are ridiculously well calibrated.

I've only been there twice (last year and the year before), and since I never went as a kid, I expected to be jaded as frick, but I was geeking out the whole time, tbh. Not for the same reasons my wife was, though
