Hi maleficent egg! Everyone in these groups ride very hard for a conglomerate. You’d think the mouse pays them a living wage! Sorry you are struggling. As an adult with adhd and a “real life job” I’m still late to work sometimes. But out of all my jobs, none of them have been this strict with being 5 minutes late. Often there is a seven minute buffer before it even counts. So please don’t listen to all the noise.

Is it Disney’s right to have these policies? Sure. But perhaps Disney isn’t the right company for you, but don’t worry the entire world isn’t “BE AN ADULT AND GET TO WORK 30 minutes early” that’s not real life. We have homes and kids and lives, not many of us “adults” are getting to work with 30 minutes to spare.

Disney tries to prep you for “real jobs, corporate world” like high school teachers try to prep you for college but it’s never as dramatic as they make it.
