Fury rises at Disney over use of foreign workers

At the end of October, IT employees at Walt Disney Parks and Resorts were called, one-by-one, into conference rooms to receive notice of their layoffs. Multiple conference rooms had been set aside for this purpose, and in each room an executive read from a script informing the worker that their last day would be Jan. 30, 2015.

Some workers left the rooms crying; others appeared shocked. This went on all day. As each employee received a call to go to a conference room, others in the office looked up sometimes with pained expressions. One IT worker recalls a co-worker mouthing "no" as he walked by on the way to a conference room.

What follows is a story of competing narratives about the restructuring of Disney's global IT operations of its parks and resorts division. But the focus is on the role of H-1B workers. Use of visa workers in a layoff is a public policy issue, particularly for Disney.

Disney CEO Bob Iger is one of eight co-chairs of the Partnership for a New American Economy, a leading group advocating for an increase in the H-1B visa cap. Last Friday, this partnership was a sponsor of an H-1B briefing at the U.S. Capitol for congressional staffers. The briefing was closed to the press.

Watching /es 2015 level, 100 ema was being pocked one too many times, setting tight stops for my long index positions

The cleanest dirty shirt…or long $ no more

Took profits on long term short crude oil position

If anyone wants to listen to experts that oil will be going down more because of ….blah blah blah – good luck with that.  I am happy with my Great yellow Line target on downside.

 

Gold update

Setting tight stop on my short position ( tight stops on long mentioned on Jan 21st post worked out nicely for 100 points move) and might (OR NOT) switch long again with stops/reversals under recent lows. This time directional move might be quite illusive and position will be very small if any at all. DO I think move down is over? Good grace – of course NOT – gold has way more to go down.
