Work

Work is rough. The casino business has seen a huge decline since the beginning of the year, this is followed by a record year. Went from a high to a low.

So what do you do? You have to lay people off from work.

Everyday employees have been walking on eggshells. Who is next? Will it be me? Am I valuable? Do I do a good job?

The worst part of my job is employee evaluations, consultations and lay-offs or terminations.

Business will turn around, we are continuing with a $25 million renovation, but tightening up on every other expense, including payroll.

If you could fix the gas problem - a lot of other problems would melt away. I am doing everything I can think of to get people in. Free rooms alone will not do it. Gas cards? Free food? Free play?
