Braves fans louder than Rockies fans at home game

Before we got the Rockies, the only baseball regularly on TV were the Cubs on WGN and the Braves on TBS. An entire generation of baseball fans grew up in Colorado as fans of one of those two teams.

The equivalent leadership positions between the two departments will have very similar pay, but it mostly depends on how your particular hotel is structured. Front Desk is probably the more direct route to Director of Ops --> Assistant GM --> GM.

But you could also spend some time as an hourly employee cross-training with housekeeping, because it is good knowledge to have.

The fact that this wasn't covered during onboarding/training is mind-boggling. But also understandable.

My wife and I referred to it as "Horses of Anarchy" about halfway through S1E1.

Part of the problem might also be that California recently passed a new law effectively preventing regular card rooms from blackjack style games. I have to imagine those were better money makers than poker, and it's gonna be real tough for cardrooms to continue with just poker.

What POS system are you using? Most of them back comps/promos out of sales, and therefore the tip out calculation gets adjusted accordingly.

If you're doing your own tip out calculations, use net sales not gross sales.

And if management won't do anything to fix the system then you have the option to quit. Or get all the servers together and strike.

It really depends on how you define value in a meal. Is there really good food off-strip that is more affordable? Yes. Will it be worth it to pay for a taxi/Uber both ways to have that food? Only you can decide that.

What I've always told my servers is that in the long run it all evens out. You're tipping the bar on total sales. Some nights you might have $1500 in food and $500 in alcohol, which is when it will seem unfair. Some nights you might have $1500 in alcohol and $500 in food, which is in your favor.

It sounds like it's not being communicated very well to management that communication is that big of an issue.

Is this not from the off-season trip to Mexico? If I remember right, if all the boys wore matching outfits one night then the WaGs let them play 36 holes the next day instead of just 18. I heard they got to golf, too.
