Ellis Park clerks could be out of a job soon

I figured this story was significant being that Ron Geary is a candidate for Person of the Year. Hey...at least Ellis has new barns for the horsies. Who gives a crap about people!?!

Beware of typos.

yeah I'm sure the proposed cuts are simply to screw people, and not to keep the place afloat. He should be happy to lose millions each year

Yeah he'll save about $1,250,000. That should put him in the black. :rolleyes:

He's from the Health Care Industry. He'll ruin Ellis Park before he helps it. The guy made a bad business decision buying the place and giving Churchill 51% IF the slots are approved. Now 150 people are going to take huge paycuts or just lose their jobs cause this guy is a typical soulless corporate monster.

It's going to be great having new clerks who'll work for practically nothing. I'm sure that won't cause any problems with customer service.

Personally I think they should get rid of all tellers except to pay off at the end of the day.

Machines are better and more reliable anyway.

Yeah that'll go over well on big days. So many gamblers are tech savvy. :rolleyes:

That's a fine Merry Xmas to the hard working clerks of America. I'm sure that they love the pleasent aditude the players display after losing. Machine or Teller? I like both.

Yes. Opening day, Gardenia day, and Claiming Crown day this year were big days for Ellis Park. Having only machines is quite possibly the most idiotic idea I have ever heard in my life. You should stop posting here. Seriously.
