"I'm not quite dead yet..."

[giza]

Me: Check out this 1943 Employee Handbook from Walt Disney! The joke on page 6 about ID badges is pretty funny too!
Co-worker M: I don't think that's a joke...
Me: I think it is!
Co-worker M: Is not!
Me: Is too!
Me: Okay, let's just dig up the guy who wrote the book and ask him.
Co-worker M: He might not be dead yet...
Me: All the more reason to dig him up! He'll thank us for it!
Co-worker M: o.O

Sounds like a normal workplace to me. What was it you found strange?

Huh. What was Disney Studio's function during the war? I see reference to "war work". I know that they put out propaganda films. Anyone know what else? Did they produce training movies or something? Time to hit up Google and wikipedia.

A lot of training films. Many of which involved having to use sensitive materials as reference. Most movie companies, especially small commercial and industrial film studios did work like this.

they were saying it was all horrible stuff but when i read that yesterday I found nothing out of the ordinary considering they were doing work during wartime. The only kinda funny thing was the 'penthouse' that didn't allow women.
