I would focus on making the tropicana work before you muck up more casinos. Rumor has it he has not even been on the casino floor yet. The staff is still waiting to see Alex Yemenidjian in person instead of pictures of him in the back hallways. I guess success is now only considered in the deal you make, not the way you manage.

I was there the other day and there were long lines everywhere and very little staff. The main cashier only had two windows open and a line of about 30 people. Most of the restaurants were closed down maybe because it was before 5pm. Garage had garbage all over. Looks like Harrah's is milking it for all its worth. No staff to serve the customers or clean the place. Cost cutting at its best.

Annie, you are right. We have become a country of entitlement on the backs of those who do, to the pockets of those who dont. I remember as a kid the Truancy officer would chase you down and haul you away if they found you skipping school. There is no punishment for doing what was once considered wrong, now you get a check for it. Drop out of school, join a union, work for the state, sue your employer and your set for life.

Anything is better than any incumbent. We need to vote out the incumbents and keep doing so until they begin to do the business of the legal citizens of the United States of America. What has happened to our great country? The Harry Reids, George Bushs, the Nancy Pelosis and the rest of them have tanked everything good. Our laws are applied at will and not across the board. We are more litigious now than ever. I have tried to contact both democratic senators and republicans to ask questions and each time i was referred to the same Lobbyist in WA to arrange a meeting, and would have to pay the Lobbyist to make the meeting. We are so screwed and we dont even see it. Vote in Angle, if she is no good, vote her out and try someone new. Keep doing it until they get the point, or, lets find a Lobbyist that will get a referendum on the federal ballot to initiate term limits. Throw all the bums out.

stick it to the customers, stick it to the staff, stick it to the families and stick it in their...pocket book, all the while paying the big bosses 10s of millions in salary and bonuses. This is like a retail store demanding a 75% margin on their goods. No deal here. If they are doing this so blatantly on the tables, you can just imagine what is going on with the slots that you cannot really identify. High hold percentages on the tables and slots, expensive drinks at the bar, resort fees, crappy service, what is this a cruise ship with lipstick?

Just look for people with Meth Mouth. I think it does the same thing to the physical appearance as meth.

I was there two days ago and the customer service was horrible. Had to wait in lines everywhere i went, not due to volumes of people, but do to lack of staff. Overpriced, bad service and unionized employees. Not a formula that works for my entertainment needs.

When more than 50% of the student population is hispanic with no english speaking skills, the drop out rate will mirror that population. All the while, the taxpayer is footing the bill. VOTE OUT THE INCUMBENTS who have allowed this to happen!!!!

One reason the firefighters get so much overtime is the county commission requires the fire department to show up at every car accident and almost every incident with a medical issue. If the fire department only showed up for fires, there would be no more ot and no more issues. If someone dings your bumper at a stop light, a fire truck will show up. Thank Rory Reid for this.

I understand how the dealers now want to join a union for representation as the management only wants to save a buck, at the dealers expense. Good ol corporate, non gaming experienced management.
