If you guys are just handing out money, I can fuck some shit up for like half that much.

I just need 24 hours to fire all the janitors and tram operators, turn over all food vending to the folks in charge of the Italy booth at EPCOT festivals, switch out all the ketchup packets, shut down the eggroll cart, release 100 limited edition Starbucks cups, take away free parking from passholders, cancel all ride repairs, and put up even more walls at EPCOT.

How much do I get?

Alright there Elon, you're already "running" 3 companies, at least wait until Twitter is in the ground before you go after another CEO gig.

The funny thing is... Those are almost all basically exaggerations of things Chapek did. (He never shut down the eggroll cart.)

The janitorial staff has definitely been cut, and he still hasn't managed to get trams back up and running. Food quality has dropped as prices continue to rise. He actually did switch out the ketchup packets from Heinz. Some merchandising/supply issues ended up with long lines stretching through parks and even a few fights, though this was at least not necessarily his fault. He cut passholder perks while raising prices and referred to them as "undesirable." And construction slowed on EPCOT projects despite having plenty of downtime to have worked on them— resulting in what guests refer to as "Wallcot."

Ok but you still have to be the target of at least 1 lawsuit from Scarlett Johannson first.

It's true. Practically any subreddit could've run the company at least as well as Chapek did. /r/wallstreetbets maybe.
