Employer cutting back everyones hours, or laying off.

I had 2 days off and went back to work today to find out my hours were cut by one day. There is only one person with less senority then me in my dept, so I'm hoping the layoffs don't affect me. I just don't make quite enuf yet to do this full time, unfortunately.

So come to Vegas, spend your money folks, we need it. People are not flying, are not staying in hotels, and we are hurting.

Message from concerned Vegas employee

Saw that Cantor Fitzgerald guy (Howard Letnick) on Larry King just yet, now that is a sad sad story.

This guy lost all his employees... damn!

I saw him throughout the tragedy and his emotions are dragging him across the coals.

I hope he pulls through.

There is a relief fund setup for the families of those workers lost, from his company.

I hope so too, if I could give some more money I would, this guy really seems to need it, seems like a great person. He also lost his brother.
This story stands out for me!

Whizzo, I think you could call any strip hotel and get a room right now. We are running 39% occupied where I work...that is pathetic. The hotel has lost...lets say a LOT since this happend. Not in profits, their costs are higher then their income by almost 2 mil since the 11th. Pretty frightening. The only casinos and hotels doing well are the off strip ones that cater to the locals...not these fancy dan ones.

Working on my sites, because this is the future, I think porn goes on and guys (gals too) are gonna need release.

I'd rather not say. Not that I don't trust you all, but if my bosses were to find out what I do at my OTHER job...I might lose this one.

She won't say, but my day job is at the Landmark in Vegas, and business is bad. I'm thinking of getting a job at the Dunes or the Sands.

I understand that 3 major conventions in October have been cancelled as well. Usually in the night sky there are 10-15 planes that can be seen at any given time... the past few nights there are about 5 and most flights are running less than half full.

The heard mentality has set in... airlines have cut 20% of their workforce... Boeing announced a 20% cut. This is only just the beginning. I hate to see this country become the land of the lemmings.

I think I will contribute to the economy and buy a few more domains.

AWC, you are right on the conventions....we have had 20 different banquets cancel including Ford. Haven't had any this week actually keep their reservations.

So far, COMDEX hasn't cancelled, and everyone is crossing their fingers. Although we don't host it, it usually means all the rooms are full in town. I keep seeing my bosses looking at the negative numbers on the financial statements, hoping they will reverse.
