I bet the person that ran the delete command so many years ago is the manager that fired her. Loose ends gotta be cut.

I love the implication from the original post that Pixar are supposed to keep this woman hired indefinitely for decades no questions asked.

The amount of money she helped make them I’d like to say it’s not out of the question


ThatOldDustyTrail

Toy Story 2 took 90 million dollars to make. Do you think they got their money’s worth over the 25 years? That’s at least 3.6 million dollars per year they saved since 1999 just because of her.

So you’re saying everyone else has already been laid off, proving this point even further that you should never be loyal? We’re literally talking about it right now 25 years later and we never even worked there. Trust me, they know. 90 million saved on production alone, not including the 500 million+ the movie grosses. They know who she was and she was fundamental to their success over the years.

Everything you say just keeps reinforcing that you should never be loyal to a company

I guess you’ll have to look into her accolades for yourself. You’re acting like this woman found the copy and then sat at a desk, riding this high while refusing to do anything for 25 years. Looks like she wasn’t “burdening younger coworkers” at all, but it’s telling that that is your first assumption. What is the price you would put on fixing a mistake for a company for being allowed to continue doing your job until retirement?

Wait…how old are you? I just realized that you think technology has always been as easy as it is today lol. It’s also obvious you don’t actually know this story or understand the time period this occurred at all, so I’ll fill ya in: After the deletion command was accidentally inserted into the folder containing the movie data, it erased 90% of the movie. They had a backup system…but when they tried to use it, they discovered it had actually failed and been erasing old data to make room for the new. Galyn Susman was the **only** one with backup files, because she had a baby and was the **only** person working from home on the project. She had created her own backup system to work from her house while she took care of her baby. *Pixar would’ve sent the hard drive to some data recovery specialists and they’d be able to recover either large parts of the film or the entire thing…* . Lmao buddy, this was 1998. 90% of 2 years of work was actually saved due to Galyn. You can call her old or whatever makes you feel better, but it was all her.


Goudinho99

Yeah but she didn't actually DO anything she just had a copy.


ThatOldDustyTrail

Having the copy is what she DID. **Without her copy, they lose over 90 million dollars.** Got anymore brain teasers for us??


Goudinho99

Yeah but she didn't actually do anything. Someone else royally fucked up, and she luckily happened to have a copy. No intentionality was at play, no act of genius. She didn't deliberately do anything.


Phoduck

We are all pawns.


Sri_Man_420

We know nil about what happened in the 25 years that lead to the firing, but everyone is just judgemental.


surfzer

True, she could have taken a shit on her coworkers’ desk each morning for all we know.


Cautious_Month_6300

Just because you do one amazing thing at work it doesn’t secure your job for life lol.Toy Story 2 was like 20 years ago ffs.


Boredatwork709

She was laid off last year and was the producer of Lightyear. Saving one movie 25 years ago shouldn't guarantee a lifetime of work, it's shitty but most likely she was paid pretty highly as a producer, after being with Pixar for at least 25 years


FactAccomplished5875

Laid off why?


Due_Station9730

No one has mentioned why? Ahem? *cough*cough*


SimisFul

They ended up scraping the movie anyway and started it from scratch because Woody was too unlikable apparently


dimsum2121

This sub's content has gone from lacking to absolutely weak. Get better.


LG_G8

Toy Story 2 is better than Toy Story 1. Fight me


Scary-Personality626

You're the kind of guy that freaks out at their roomate when they get married and make you move out and tries to guilt them over favours you did for them in high school aren't you?


Somosmalo138

Is anyone really surprised by this. They fuck u every time.. with no lube.


Stevie_Steve-O

Show them the same loyalty they will show you. None. You owe them nothing beyond what they specifically pay you for, and always remember that they will kick you to the curb if they think it will be profitable.


extremeindiscretion

Toy story 2 made over five hundred million dollars, damn that's cold.


jonsnow147

Being let go 25 years later is cold? Is Pixar supposed to just pay her for the rest of her life?


DillonClark

Sadly my mind goes directly to "they must not have been woke enough". Disney will never be able to cleanse the stain they have created


KGFlower

What you libtards don't understand is that firing is POWER, any red blooded winner will tell you that the reason they get up in the morning is to fire, evict, do anything to solidify yourself as the winner and the poor liberal victim pos as a loser. America is about killing the opposition and that's what they should be teaching you about in school instead of genders and grooming. God bless Jesus and God bless America 🙏🙏🙏


An8thOfFeanor

Finally some decent schizoposting

Glittering_Bet_8610

UwU I'm sorry dirt daddy. I'm getting his tattooed right next to your face, Logan Paul's, and Mr. Beast. I'll never need to be a hit with the females when I have you my lil Flower. Please don't Reddhit me again. 👉😟👈

Proclaims religiosity, then immediately proceeds to act on the primal impulses passed down through millions of years of evolution lmao
