Chanting? Nein!

Disney is always making changes to rules, policies, attractions, shows, dining, and more. This is done to better the experience for all of their guests at Walt Disney World, Disneyland, and theme parks around the world. Now it appears as though they are making a change that may upset a number of people, but make many others happy as Disney is reportedly banning group “chanting” in its theme parks.

Walt Disney World has a lot of guests walk through its park gates every single day. Many times during the year, there are large groups that come together from Brazil and other countries around the world. They are large packs of often 30 or more who wear the same colored clothing and explore all the fun.

Many of these groups often sing songs and “chant” in their own language, and quite loud. While some may see them as just enjoying themselves, others see the chanting and loud singing as being bothersome.

That may soon come to an end.

According to Orlpassholder, an “incident” of some sort happened on Main Street U.S.A. at Magic Kingdom, and it involved a tour group from Argentina. Apparently, the group was chanting and singing and some kind of bad situation came up involving other guests, but it was not revealed exactly what it was.

As stated in the report, Cast Members at Walt Disney World have now been advised to put a halt to any chanting and group singing by any large amount of people. This means for the tour groups from Brazil, France, Argentina, the United States — anywhere.

If this is true, then it could also be in place for just large groups, in general, such as cheerleaders, sports teams, family reunion groups, etc.

Disney has not released any official word on this, so nothing has been confirmed at this time. Orlpassholder said that Cast Members are being instructed to keep an eye/ear out for chanting, but signs likely won’t be going up or anything like that.

Earlier this year, Walt Disney World officially banned selfie sticks from being used in their parks. Signs are now posted at the front of each park, and Guest Relations does take them for the day if found in a guest’s possession. The selfie sticks are then returned when the guest leaves.

According to a user named “YodaMan” at WDWMagic, the banning of the chanting at Walt Disney World isn’t overly new. Cast Members are always to be on the lookout for things that are disruptive to other guests and discourage it.

As expected, though, it may be rather hard for one or two Cast Members to actually stop an entire large group from singing loudly and chanting. This may be especially true if there is a language barrier.

Whether the banning of chanting at Walt Disney World is true or not remains to be seen, and it may never be something made official to the public. For now, it’s said that Cast Members are being made aware of it, but Disney has still not confirmed anything.

outsour

I came across this very interesting article on Disney outsourcing

I used to have a dream career at one of Americas most iconic and admired companies. Twenty years of hard work, technical skill building, the fostering of relationships and a bachelor’s degree in Information Technology guided me to a coveted position as an Information Technology Engineer for Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida.

On a sunny Monday morning in late October of 2014 I drove down the interstate toward the huge 40 square mile Disney Orlando, Florida property to my office. Ten days earlier Bob Iger, CEO of Disney, had just announced that the company’s earnings were up well over 20 percent for the quarter and this was just one among a long series of record breaking financial results for the company. About six months earlier, a new CIO, Tilak Mandadi, was appointed for the Parks and Resorts Division of Disney, which would result in huge changes to our lives. Little did I know what was about to happen that very same day to me and hundreds of other fellow Disney Information Technology Cast Members.

Update:  We were stopped again today by the Goonz. They asked what the radios were for. We explained again they cant monitor their system and they let us go, but he hung around following us for a while until he lost interest.

It has seem that I raised interest with the Disney security patrols. Me and my friend were in Epcot yesterday and were using our MRKs on 446.000. I caught one of the uniformed guards make a quick turn as soon as we passed by him. He followed us from France to Morocco until my friend stopped to take out his phone to find his girlfriend. The guard approached us and asked what were the radios for. We explained that they were for us to talk to each other when we spit up in the park. We explained we were ham radio operators. He seemed unsure about us and asked if the MRKs can listen to Disney’s radios system. We told them Disney used a digital radio system and we were analog. This seemed to make him content and he mumbled something into his speaker-mic and he went on his way.
