The resulting mess, caused by the tipped trash can, likely created additional cleanup work for EPCOT custodial teams, who are already responsible for keeping the park spotless. The video, which was posted by the woman herself, has sparked anger among viewers, with many pointing out how the stunt likely caused both an unnecessary mess and potential damage to the property.Credit: DisneyBacklash and CriticismSocial media users and cast members were quick to express their concerns about the video. One TikTok user commented, “People are too comfortable with the ‘that’s their job’ mentality rather than being respectful, kind, productive members of society.” This sentiment was echoed by others, who felt that the woman’s actions were not only inconsiderate but also disrespectful to the custodial cast members who work tirelessly to maintain the park’s pristine condition.A former EPCOT custodial manager also weighed in on the controversy, sharing their frustration over the potential damage caused to the trash can, stating: “Those are SO expensive to repaint as well. And that one probably just got scratched to hell.” This comment highlights the cost and effort involved in maintaining Disney’s high standards of cleanliness and the care needed to protect the park’s infrastructure. @t_blatt Hope this helps! #disneyadult #disneyparks #disneysecrets #dcp ♬ original sound – Tyson Blatter A Call for RespectMany people who viewed the video emphasized the importance of showing respect for both the cast members and the Disney property itself.
