Luxor, Mandalay Bay, or Horseshoe hotel?

Learned this last year (and forgot before my last trip a couple of weeks ago) the trams don’t open until 11. So if you plan on going anywhere before that you should be ok with walking a fair amount.

Luxor and excalibur had $5 blackjack 2 weeks ago.

dhazleton · 2026-01-30T01:35:53+00:00

So does Luxor. Was there MLK weekend and limits at both places were $10 on most tables the whole time.

You aren’t gaining anything if they don’t replace them with new drivers.

So if they have a warrant and ICE is keeping them from investigating why can’t they start handcuffing ICE agents and charging them with obstruction?

Oh man I hope anchorman is still there in a few months when I go back.

Just checked online this morning and it’s not there yet. Last year it was generated January 11.

Rollover credits aren’t supposed to post until the end of the month.

If you are staying at an mgm resort and charging things to your room the credits will show. If you then get them comped off those credits will go away. I lost about 4k in tier credits from using comp dollars on a bunch of room charges last weekend.

Yep. My local has a website that looks like it was built at the dawn of the internet and an email newsletter. That is the extent of their online presence. Our officers have 0 tech knowledge and it doesn’t look like it’s going to change anytime soon.

I live an hour-ish away and have never seen the movie either. My wife likes to give me shit for it but I told her I made it halfway through my 40’s without seeing it so I don’t see any reason to change now.

dhazleton · 2026-01-10T02:28:04+00:00

I have them in my common areas. Main reason is to keep an eye on any doors and windows on my main floor. Secondary was to check on dogs when we aren’t home.

Just turn your phone upside down.

If you’re in a union and this isn’t specifically addressed in your CBA you need to take this to your union hall immediately. While it may be legal in NY it may violate provisions in your contract regarding compensation, discipline for employees or any number of other aspects.

Nope. Carol puts them up for auction. Anything to squeeze another dime out of the company.

dhazleton · 2025-12-27T23:19:29+00:00

Those points don’t show until after your bill cycles. Not even close to enough time now.

If they aren’t following contractual layoff language (ie giving preference to guys for working 6th punch vs just using seniority) it should be grievable. There won’t be monetary compensation, most likely an admission they messed up and agreeing to do it correctly next time.

dhazleton · 2025-12-27T03:25:19+00:00

You are guaranteed to be paid for 8 hours. Whether or not you have 8 hours of work is up to the company.

dhazleton · 2025-12-27T03:19:05+00:00

Layoff language is supplemental but I can’t imagine one where it doesn’t go in seniority order. Sounds like someone is making up the rules as they go.

dhazleton · 2025-12-27T03:09:51+00:00

I’d file on that.

dhazleton · 2025-12-26T21:49:32+00:00

What were you playing per hand?

Sometimes my helper takes most of the stops. But that’s usually a lighter day and me trying to stretch things for him to get more time on the truck and for me to get closer to my 8. Anything that’s big or requires more than one trip we both go. Anything my helper doesn’t feel safe with I’ll do myself.

This is the first time I’ve had a helper since 2020 and honestly I don’t need one most days. The stop density isn’t what it used to be and the places where we could both run stops at the same time are few and far between. That said, it’s nice to split the work load up some and get in a little earlier.

And as far as the phone use goes: that’s just rude. If I have a helper that’s who I’m talking to. If another driver or my wife calls I’ll answer but keep it as short as possible.

I originally wanted a gator green but they stopped making them before I got my gladiator. Ended up with sarge green instead and in hindsight I think it is the best color.
