I am in the single digits happy dance and have been reading about the low crowds on just about every popular fan site including Josh. Of course, that has been music to my ears.
Today I read Len's
post that starting this week Park and Resort cast member hours are being cut until the end of their fiscal year (Sept 30, 2017). Have any cast members here confirmed?
I take this as confirmation that attendance has been low and hit the bottom line so to show a profitable or balance operating cost this move had to be made. I had to make this move for my business last year so completely understand.
However, as a guest, I am wondering about the impacting from my park strategy to resort experience at the Poly. Do cuts occur across the board, or specific to operations? Fewer Cast Members at the merchandise stores seems would have minimal impact but if it's also dining or ride operations, then there's the rub.
Are fewer vehicles run? or is there less line management? Closing of the FP second scan point? How best to account for this situation?
