Disney replaced their tech workers with H1b imports. Massive layoff, and to rub salt into the wound, they had the departing experts train the new hires. Disney has also moved their financial base to Europe, to avoid US taxes.
Disney is unpatriotic and doesn't give a d@mn about US workers and the US economy. Boycott Disney! Write your representatives in Congress to strictly regulate the H1b visa business, to prevent the mass unemployment brewing in the tech sector, and the further deterioration of the US economy that mass unemployment brings.
WOW. If true, it does get under my skin. But you do realize Facebook, Google, MS all hire dreaded H1bs, right?

But how do I go about "giving" her this gift? I don't wanna give her a Disney plush cause she's got about fifty of them.
I wanna be creative. HELP!
IMO Disney is an extremely ridiculous and over a top gift for a couple that has been dating less than a year. Typically, I'd institute a hard cap of under $100 for gifts for less than two years of dating.
There's great ideas on here! you guys are awesome!
I love her so much, so I wanna make this super special. we've talked about going to disney for our anniversary every year, so I want every year to be special.
I really like the photo album idea. I was thinking about doing that with pictures of ourselves and on the last page our reservations...?

You'd "institute a hard cap of under $100"? LOL
OP, good for you for doing this great thing for her. I also agree with the photo album idea.

Laugh if you want to, but I'd never feel comfortable accepting or giving a gift that was over that amount from someone I'd hadn't been dating all that long.

Because if you spoil someone too soon, they may get p$&@ed if your financial situation changes and you cannot provide that level of gift in the future. This kind of all out gift may set unrealistic expectations.

"Spoil" someone?
Good grief.
The easy solution is to not date someone that materialistic. Come on, Diss. You know better than this.

I just found out about a new dating site for Disney lovers called MouseMingle. Maybe I should try it!
