Dont think this a problem as I believe the mutuel clerks are all Union EE's and would go for both. Different owners for all 3 So Cal tracks yet same Union supplies the clerks.

Food services are probably all union and I guess all of the food is contracted out to a food provider. Maintenance similar situation.

The guy selling pretzels at the Belmont main gate and at the Big A must still get his space, it wouldnt be racing without him.
