So let's see what they have done this week.

Well they have fired dealers and other employee's, just the benefits to the remaining ones.

The new casino management doesn't seem to have a clue, for some reason the have it in their heads that they are the Wynn and people will flock to them, umm no guys, sorry it's still the Strat.

When I was there we had one player in the whole place, a nice guy playing $500 on our single zero roulette wheel, he left after he was told by the shift manager that his wife could not sit at the table.

Yes their were some employee's that should of been gone before all this, however when managements hands are tied by the HR dept. there isn't a whole lot that can be done, but the people that came in to run table games now, wow, they have no clue what they are doing.

After 9/11 we did no lay off, we stayed busy, why because Carl understood that the Strat is a bargain joint, take care of the guests and they will come back, well I have seen none of our old regulars in the last 3 months, they were used to the bosses being friendly, not standing on the edge of the table sweating the money and making them feel unwelcome.

The one good thing I will say, i did learn something, our shift boss would give us pep talks before shift, not about gaming or customer service but about silly things, like why the sky is blue....Yeah ok....Great thanks.

Seriously, I am sorry to see what has happened to the place and my friends that have worked there or still do, I wish the ones still employed good luck, they are going to need it.

Lastly, Felini's is still great
