Within one month of
when the
Wynn policy was instituted, a Harrah's spokesperson said: "We
don't have any plans to change our system, but we will look at what
happens there."
Side comment: "Our System?" Tokes belong to Dealers, not
Harrah's. We should be the ones determining the system,
because they're our tokes. Now where were we...
What follows is an excerpt from the Las Vegas Review Journal less
than one month later.
[Jan] Jones [vice president of government
relations] said Harrah's Entertainment does not now support the practice of sharing tokes, although she added that the dealers' actions could someday change that policy.
"However, if all of a sudden
we're in negotiations with an intermediary, you can't guarantee that
would be the policy because you have to be competitive in
negotiations,"
Jones said about tip sharing.
These are all comments made
by Harrah's about one single topic. They'll look at what
happens, then they will not do what Steve Wynn did, then they admit
to still holding the card and will try
to play it in negotiations. Which one is it?
You can believe the
MGM Corporation is WATCHING!
They can't
state the policy and stick with it, which is exactly why we need a
Contract.
