Disney Investments
Disney is a very financially strong company and are there to make a profit! They are involved in so many different products and services that I know they aren't going to go anywhere. They own several other entitites and would make a great investment. I would definitely put my money on Disney!
Employee of Disney
I would definitely consider being an employee of the Disney company. They seem to have their priorities straight! They put their employees first and make sure they are happy. Who wouldn't want to work at the happiest place on earth! They offer great benefits and have a very strong company!

Disney bans texting while driving for all cast members
I know this has nothing to do with anything we are learning, but it hit home and I had to share it.
All I can say is THANK GOODNESS!!!
This past Saturday, a lady almost ran me and my two year old niece off of the road into a tree and light pole because she was too busy texting instead of watching where she was going! I will never text again while driving and encourage everyone else to do the same. Is the text more important than someone else's life, let alone your own?
DISNEY & CULTURE
I believe that Disney does a great job and trying to work with different cultures. First of all, they are a global company that has theme parks world wide and they are known by everyone.
Let's look at their history of movies. Every single movie is totally different. They have different types of characters and take place in different locations not only in the US but in different countries around the world.
Alladin was Arabian. The Lion King took place in Africa. Pocahontas was an Indian. The Princess and the Frog were African American. We even have fish like Nemo, or Mermaids like Ariel. Mulan was Chinese. My favorite Beaty and the Beast. All of these teach lessons that prove that race or ethinicity and being male or female really don't make a difference. They all express the different cultures around the world and how one is no better than the other.
Disney strives to be educational and unbiased. They want their viewers to not only enjoy themselves but learn something as well.

Employee accuses Disney of discrimination
http://www.wdwinfo.com/news/disneyland/Employee_accuses_Disney_of_discrimination.htm
My quesiton is why now? After working for Disney for two years and up and decided to start wearing it everyday? It would have been different if she was hired wearing it and had always worn it. That's only my opinion.
