Confessions of a Disney Employee - Summary

Summary

The narrator shares their experience working at Disney's Hollywood Studios in Orlando, Florida. They describe the different types of employees, including those who take their jobs too seriously and those who are "brainwashed" into always smiling. The narrator admits to being one of the employees who didn't take their job too seriously and often showed up late or stole small items.

They share a story about being asked to stand guard in a deserted area of the park for three hours, which led to their decision to quit. However, before leaving, they discovered that companies could rent out the park and provide free food for their employees. The narrator became determined to sneak into one of these events and enjoy the free food.

They eventually found an opportunity to blend in with a group of high school students who had rented out the park and managed to eat a large amount of food without getting caught. The narrator quit their job a few months later but looks back on their time at Disney fondly.

The video ends with the narrator asking viewers to share the video with anyone who works at Disney and might know someone who looks like them, as they are seeking a way to get back into the park for free food.
