9. TORO TURD!
Edited on Sun Nov-26-06 12:52 AM by rocknation
Before the change, dealers at Wynn Las Vegas earned an average of $100,000 a year in wages and tips, while their managers typically took home a salary alone of about $60,000 annually. Officials maintained the imbalance caused a shortage of workers willing to take on supervisory positions.

The policy, which also gave managers an increase in base wages, realigned dealers to an average of $90,000 a year, while supervisors began making $95,000 a year. But some dealers have complained the change could cost them as much as $30,000 a year in tips.

Without knowing what a dealer's base salary is (and I doubt that the reporter's not mentioning it is an accident), I have to agree: Wynn is obviously not paying his supervisors enough, and it's up to him, not the people who report to them, to make up the difference. Also, I am very interested in knowing how this policy is enforced. I thought they got rid of all the kickbacks and money laundering in Las Vegas--how can effectively playing your supervisor's salary possibly be legal?
