While working at Disney, I spent thousands of dollars on drugs using a
corporate credit card.
When I confessed, the company didn't fire me — it gave me a second
chance.
I later worked on healing from my addiction and mending my relationship
with my family.
I started my first professional internship at Disney in the summer of
2014 in my hometown of Glendale, California. I felt a sense of purpose
in planning summer activities and bringing the intern community
together. It was the greatest summer of my life. Little did they know I
was also struggling with a meth addiction.
My traumatic experience of coming out as gay to my Armenian family
brought a lonely, dark fog over my life. My workplace was a refuge from
addiction and my pains. I loved being surrounded by imaginative people.
Upon graduating from college, and after my second internship with
Disney, I was excited to be hired as a software engineer on the
PhotoPass team. It was my dream job and a haven; I knew I was lucky to
have it.
As my addiction deepened, my finances didn't reflect the near-six-figure
salary I earned at Disney. Most of my money was spent on drugs and on
helping out my immigrant family.
I eventually reached a breaking point.
I confessed to my employer I was mishandling the corporate card
I spent about $24,000 on Disney's corporate credit card to support my
drug habit and my family. I convinced myself I'd pay it back, but I was
getting in over my head.
At the beginning of 2017, I took a stranger's advice and admitted my
mistake to my manager. I was terrified I'd get fired or go to jail, but
Disney offered me the greatest gesture of love anyone could've shown me.
The company gave me a chance to pay it back and left me with a formal
warning. This was a big turning point in my life.
My family gave me a loan to pay all of it back, and for the next year, I
worked to pay them back. The second chance Disney gave me also inspired
me to go to rehab. But I failed six times and was starting to give up
hope.
On July 17, 2018, I was stranded with no gas, no money, and 10 days left
to return to work from another medical leave of absence. Addiction led
me to push away all my friends and family. I feared I was about to lose
the only constant left in my life: my job at Disney.
