What are some Disney employee horror stories?

One horror story is about an employee having to deal with extremely rude guests. They would be yelled at for things out of their control, like ride breakdowns. Some guests even threw things at them.

One horror story could be an employee having to deal with a large, unruly crowd during the Night of Joy. There might have been a situation where people were pushing and shoving to get to a particular show or attraction, and the employee was caught in the middle trying to maintain order. It was a chaotic and scary situation for the employee as they feared getting hurt.

One horror story could be about the extremely long working hours. An employee might have been made to work 12 - 14 hours a day during peak seasons like Christmas without proper overtime pay. They were constantly exhausted but still had to meet high sales targets.

In a coffee shop, I was sitting at a corner table working on my laptop. A woman walked up to me and asked me to make her a special coffee. I was shocked and told her I was just a customer. She then said I looked like I worked there. I was so embarrassed. I think it might be because I was wearing a black shirt similar to the baristas' uniforms. But it was still a very uncomfortable situation that made me not want to go back to that coffee shop for a while.

One horror story could be dealing with extremely rude guests. Some guests might yell at employees for no good reason, like if a ride breaks down briefly. An employee once told me that a guest got angry because a character they wanted to see was on a break. The guest started shouting and making a scene, which was really scary for the employee.

There have been reports of strict management styles. For example, some managers might be overly critical of employees' work. An employee could spend weeks on a project, only to have it completely torn apart by a manager without much constructive feedback on how to improve, leaving the employee feeling demoralized.

One horror story could be a subway employee constantly facing rude and aggressive customers. They might get yelled at just for minor things like a slight delay in service. For example, a customer once threw their food at an employee because the sandwich had a little too much mayo. It was really unfair and scary for the employee.

One horror story could be about extremely long working hours during peak seasons like Christmas. UPS employees are often overworked, having to start very early in the morning and finish late at night. They might not even have proper breaks, just constantly on the go to sort and deliver packages.

There might be cases of unfair management. Some employees have reported that managers play favorites. So, those who are not in the 'in - group' may get the worst schedules, or they might be passed over for promotions even when they are more qualified. This can create a really toxic work environment for the employees who are being treated unfairly.

One horror story is about an employee who was constantly overworked. The boss kept piling on tasks without any regard for work - life balance. He had to work 12 - hour days regularly and was expected to be available on weekends too. Eventually, he burned out completely and had to take a long break to recover his health.
