Morale and trust within the Walt Disney World government has deteriorated since allies of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis took it over earlier this year, according to many employees who have departed in recent months saying the governing district has been politicized and cronyism now permeates the organization.
More than 40 out of about 370 employees have left the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District since it was taken over in February, raising concerns that decades of institutional knowledge is departing with them, along with a reputation for a well-run government.
“When I first joined the District, I found an organization that strived to be the very best at serving our community, sought the very best employees and valued those employees above all else,” a former facilities manager with three years of experience said in an employee exit survey last week. “I find myself leaving a completely different District. A District that prioritizes politics above all else and will gladly sacrifice its employees, its community and its work if there’s an opportunity to score political points.”
I don’t care.
Ron DeSantis: I don’t care who suffers as long as the people I don’t like also suffer!

No I just don’t really care when people lose their jobs
Most self centered people don’t, until it effects them. Society requires a level of empathy to remain in tact, and not everyone has it.
They’ll find new jobs. Again: I do not fucking care. I hope they find new employment quickly and that they have savings enough to support themselves and any dependents. If they don’t, they will have unemployment. I don’t expect privileged Floridian government officials to be living paycheck to paycheck, so again: I don’t fucking care.
Unemployment is a joke, especially if you’re supporting a family and lose health benefits. I get you don’t care when people lose their jobs. I’m just saying that’s cold and callus. You’re also downplaying how hard it is for some people to get another job quickly in this economy and job market while saying you hope they have enough savings to have to burn through to stay afloat. It takes very little effort to have the smallest amount of empathy.
People not caring is how things never change.
I don’t think keeping redundant jobs around is a good policy to help people. It’s much better to build stronger social safety nets. You’re not going to get me to care about someone losing their job. It happens literally every day all around the world to untold numbers of people.
I am callous to this. I’m jaded. It’s absolutely not an okay SYSTEM. I am not going to waste time focusing on the jobs lost because DeSanctimonious and The Mouse got into a tiff about whether LGBT folks should be allowed to live. It’s stupid. Those people will be fine in the long run. The vast majority of them are privileged and will be able to make it through unscathed. Nobody’s going to die because of this.
“People will be fine in the long run” is justifying your lack of empathy to yourself by making this assumption. Some people will not be ok. Some people could lose health insurance and very much be at risk of a life threatening event.
That’s a capitalism problem, not a me problem. You’re replying to this thread still, wasting my time.
Okay
