Like to see a union . Not because the employees want to get even, or lash out (although there are plenty of reasons too in 'the woods") But because now more than E V E R with the MGM elitists rolling in the door, taking over the employees rights, the workers at foxwoods need a heard voice, because our voices have seldom been heard, our opinions seldom solicited, our efforts are not TRULY appreciated, and we KNOW that thats the truth, and the old foxwoods management KNOWS that that is the TRUTH. Oh, don't let me forget the latest , THIS you wont believe........ If I have a beard or mustache for years....what gives the new kids in town the right to insist I shave, cut my hair, or any other ridiculous new rules that MGM is imposing on the employees ? If this idiocy spreads into the foxwoods casino , they'll not only be looking for new people to fill the jobs, but they won't see the ones who helped build this empire on their sweat, and toil around much longer . How sad, back in the day it was a great place to work even though wages were low, we toughed it out. Now this nonsense. Please use you heads fellow employees.....or who knows whats next ?!! I wonder if the A.C.L.U. can help employees who's rights have been trampled, and spat upon, after all it's the AMERICAN CIVIL LIBERTIES UNION .Can you say class action suit ?
The workforce needs to be a force, not a workfarce, getting trampled repeatedly under foot. Isn't there anyone out there that can look into this for the employees? This is still AMERICA isn't it ?!!! Thanks joe cantabaleevit.

who would have thought the engineers would take the raise in pay and not stick with the dealers who got that raise for them. And who's to say they have any guarantee it will not be taken away from them at a later date.
