I saw today that 1100+ were going to be laid off at Disney . . . terrible!

My Mom's friend works in management at WDW and she said 3 of her co-workers were laid off and she was given their jobs to do . . . with a only .5¢/hour raise.

It's just terrible out there . . . and of course Disney is going to be effected by it too. I see the headlines on USA Today says "Jobless rate reaches 8.5%" that is just so scary!!!

I noticed in March when I was in the stores, there was NO ONE working the floor, it was only the CMs behind the register.
