Wow, I was assuming because his full name has been used in the media and everyone has heard about this case that that is how he'd become famous, not from someone checking his performance record at Disney. But perhaps you are right and people will quickly forget his name. However he still has to report he was fired at his last job.Escapay wrote: Not necessarily. When any former castmember references Disney on their resume, the only information Disney itself can give out is a Cast Member Performance Feedback form, where each criteria is marked by either "Clearly Outstanding", "Exceeds Expectations", "Meets Expectations", "Below Expectations", and "Unsatisfactory", and are often very general criteria like "Models the Disney values", "Promotes Teamwork", "Creates positive Guest experience", "Makes Guest-Focused decisions", "Attends work regularly", etc. I dont' have my own Cast Member Performance .....
The Tigger story will likely become famous, but the kid in the costume will remain unknown and it won't hurt any further job opportunities.

(I don't know if it is a state law but here in Calif. you can basically only get "name, rank and serial number" when calling on a reference. In other words, all that HR can verify is the dates of employment and how you employment ended - voluntary or involuntary. If they give out more, it is supposedly illegal but don't quote me on that.)
I was figuring because his name has gotten out into the public and the fact that he has to report he was fired on his subsequent job applications (even though Disney doesn't have to say why he was fired) would be enough to follow him around. It is very hard to overcome getting fired from a job when you go to apply for a new job - that is not to say you can't (you need to find a sympathetic new employer) but in general it is difficult.
