And like I said in my post, if that is true then they are operating against corporate policy as I and @coaster sally is pointing out in her post. Read the links I provided. Go down tomorrow and see if they actually let you in...from their policy: If, for any reason, you didn’t order the product in advance and the product is in stock in the store, one of our employees will be more than happy to go get it in the store and sell it to you while you remain in your car.

@BeeastFarmerThank you for a detailed opinion based on your experiences. This was a post with information to substantiate your opinion, unlike many of the one line posts that is more gut feel with nothing to validate their opinion...now whether someone agrees or disagrees is an individual choice, but at least one can understand how you formulated your opinion...

Your Best Buy must not have got the corporate memo then that changed that policy...Beginning Sunday, March 22, we will offer contactless curbside service at all locations across the country where state or local laws allow. Rather than ask you to come into our stores, any items you order on BestBuy.com or the Best Buy app will be delivered to your car curbside. If, for any reason, you didn’t order the product in advance and the product is in stock in the store, one of our employees will be more than happy to go get it in the store and sell it to you while you remain in your car. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/clp-global/shop-confidently/pcmcat1584713369767.c?id=pcmcat1584713369767 https://corporate.bestbuy.com/a-note-from-best-buy-about-covid-19/

@Klabergian Empire- thanks LOL...I knew that reminded me of something and couldn't place it LOL....

But talking about the virus and it's relation to sports, stores, travel, etc. all will have an influence and impact on when amusement parks re-open and mentioning these other business sectors provides the bigger picture as it relates to amusement parks that others may be missing in their analysis...we cannot look at this in a vacuum...read my documentary on page 37 as to why these discussions are relevant...

Actually Best Buy changed their policy to curbside and delivery only on March 22nd ... I think it is on topic as it directly relates to that persons position on whether they think the park will open this year or not. They may not be saying that explicitly, but it is certainly implied, especially if you review their prior posts. It is easy to see which ones want the park open ASAP and which ones don't. Whether we agree or not is another story, but one of the freedom's we have in our country is the ability to state our opinion, as long as they do not violate the TOS... (compare our freedom of speech liberties to some other countries...)

Everyone cannot afford Mason either...or wanting those roller coasters rattling your windows trying to sleep

I am sorry to hear that about your job. Hopefully they can get you back sooner. I am sure that some Disney employees are complaining about this settlement, but it is way better than what they have in the current contract and most of us being put through this wish our employers would extend benefits beyond the terms of the original contract! Maybe some other companies are or will follow suit, but this one was relevant to this thread as it does give some insight as to where Disney is at regarding this impacting their parks.

While what you say is true that these benefits are generally already in union contracts, this is a brand new settlement revision just signed on April 11th specifically in response to COVID-19... The first line of the union statement issued even says "Today, we reached an Agreement with Disney regarding the Company’s decision to furlough its employees starting April 19 because of the COVID-19 crisis." The 2017 Disney Union Contact, that is in effect until October 1, 2022, only called for 30 days of health benefits being provided. Parties to that contract probably would have never imagined Disney would shut down for longer than that. Would any of us had thought that would happen? Disney could have simply told the union they are honoring the previously agreed to contract and they get 30 days of insurance, but instead they sat down at the table and negotiated a new deal for up to 12 months of health insurance benefits at no cost to the employee, as well as some other items of benefit to the employee... How many employers are you aware of that would do that on an existing contract in full force and effect? None that I have worked for would. This will cost Disney significant money when they could have simply pointed to an existing agreement and Disney did not do that. Would your employer do that in the event they have to furlough and it is longer than the 90 days in your union contract? I have no idea where you work, but let's hope your employer doesn't put your co-workers in that situation... Obviously both parties must feel this will be a long term shut-down...

It was known this was coming but a huge deal worked out at Disney for 43,000 employees furloughed. An important item of the agreement includes a possible idea on how long both sides may think this lasts: Health insurance (including medical, dental, life, etc.) will remain effective for the duration of the furlough up to 12 months, including both full-time workers as well as part-time workers who qualify under the Affordable Care Act. Disney will pay all insurance costs with workers not needing to owe payments when they return to work. https://www.bizjournals.com/orlando/news/2020/04/11/breakingwalt-disney-world-to-furlough-43k-more.html?ana=yahoo&yptr=yahoo

And remember this when they do open after enjoying the FreeStyle machines

Or what else is there if you show up after the Newbie

I thought the answer was going to be to build a better mouse trap But it is a good visual!

Cant wait to hear which soundtrack they went with...and if the fountain show works...

And of course, Milford's own "If I get Corona..."

Friends outside enjoying today's quiet offering and admiring the view of Diamondback...

Due to inclement weather in the area, Kings Island will be closing at 5pm tonight

Unique ride photo, but I thought the plans showed the ride photo was at the bottom of the first hill, not the 5th
