I worked at big CA-based drug company, granted it was largely a phone-room but it was still a fairly serious job, with serious pay.
Most staff came up from CA and loved disney so hard. Disney movies were a topic at meetings, they expected everyone would know the characters, used disney references in presentations, characters as test patients, etc. Managers too.
Finding others who hated disney was like finding stoners at work before it was legal - all euphamisms and inuendo until you work out who to trust: "No i don't really have a favourite character", "I'm not familiar with that", "No, I ugh... haven't seen... i'm not super into... Oh thank god, yes, of course i fucking hate disney, who could possibly like the least interesting version of a fairytale marketed by a billion dollar empire founded by a nazi and evil enough to copyright happy birthday?!"
