Recently saw a poster on a Facebook group say that no one should travel to Disney because all the workers are at risk. Which is 100% true, the risk is there. But...if no one travels to Disney, wouldn’t the workers also be at risk of losing their jobs because no one is coming to the parks to spend money? I was just curious what others thought.
It is hard to comment too much as it gets political quickly but the only real options are for businesses to open so people can get paid or to pay workers to not come in to work (either via their company or the government). You can't really just shut everything down for a year+ and not provide money
That said, I have tons of mixed emotions around when I see people traveling down to WDW now or even see their commercials .... Numbers are going the wrong way and CDC is advising not traveling for Thanksgiving, etc. - I know we cancelled our Thanksgiving plans (was just over to my mom's house, would stay within our state) and are staying home.
So feels weird to have that take on one hand and then on the other be ok with traveling to WDW - but also know that if no one goes they will layoff more people (and Disney is doing the best they can to be as safe as possible, but still not as safe as not going)
So lots of mixed messaging and emotions and over thinking and obviously not helping my overall anxiety levels
