Re: [vpFREE] Re: xvp: best prime rib

 

If you want to have a nice prime rib at a reasonable price go to the Redwood grill at the California. Nice staff, nice food, nice time. Go on the cal's website and look at the menu. Been eating there for years myself. Atmosphere is really mellow and relaxing, too. Billfrompa.

[vpFREE] Re: How long before the Palms FPDW disappear?

 


Oh Frank, I love you but as we said in my neighborhood-"Grow a (expletive deleted) pair".
You can do an interview, put it on your own web site and never even mention it on the show. That way The Wrath Of "Bob" can be avoided.

So your complaint is that despite their beauty they are like the lilies of the field, they toil not neither do the spin. ~Spock

I'm sure it is well known that the Palms hires cocktail waitresses primarily for their cuteness quotient. I have been lucky. In the area I play I have gotten excellent service and a one phone number.

If you have a complaint against a specific server, I suggest you find out her name and file a complaint against her specifically. There is little point in making a general complaint against the entire cocktail staff as there is no infrastructure in casinos for dealing with such complaints. It would get passed from individual to individual and eventually trashed when it reached someone with enough authority to ignore it "officially".

I would also recommend talking to the individual first and letting them know you are considering complaining about them, to give them a chance to change before possibly costing them their jobs.

I hope the cocktail waitress is still able to function after that :)

This cracked me up, too.
Being a frequent flyer at these machines at the Palms, I can testify that is what we fleas do. I am totally not kidding.

Speaking as a flea, I don't like Mickey D's, and quit smoking a long time ago. I don't fill my water bottle from the tap. I fill it with nice, cold water from the water fountain by the restrooms near the tattoo parlor.
Seriously, you need to bring your own drinks to the Palms. I sometimes don't see a cocktail waitress for 90 minutes. Then she'll take your order and go home before delivering your drink. One time, the young lady went on break before I got my drink, and spent her break walking up and down between the pool area and the food court, chatting with another girl. This was within my eyesight, and probably others who were waiting for their drinks.
Another time, I was actually berated by a waitress. She said she couldn't find me to deliver my drink because I had taken off my jacket (which was hanging on the back of my chair) and did not recognize me. I had been sitting in the same seat for a couple of hours.
Maybe Frank can ask George M why the cocktail waitresses aren't trained. I seldom see any of them with more than four drinks on her tray. Even the boothlings at the Players Club acknowledge that others complain that the Palms has the worst cocktail service.
All the girls are cute, but so are the girls at the M, and they do just fine.
End of XVP rant. I continue to patronize the Palms because they send me a decent calendar, and they don't nick me point wise for playing good games.

What is the minimum time between offers that one must wait to book at different MMirage Resorts? Online they seem to be letting me book one after the other but I know that this can't be and I don't want any surprises after I get there.

I laughed at it as a joke because I took it that he meant if they keep it going
the way it is, it will eventually have to be sold. So, they are actually selling
it prematurely.

Perhaps in the beginning you guys were struggling with ideas and had newbie jitters. But now you guys have a history of some real heavy hitters on your show. There may come a day when your show and guest selection has been of such high quality, that you may find yourself with a tough act to follow.

I wouldn't want to be in your shoes. You might want a vacation, or you might get the flu, and yet you've got this big responsibility of a regular weekly show now. It's almost like you guys have a real job.

LVA Question of the Day - 26 JUN 2011

Q: I ate at the buffet at the Eastside Cannery yesterday.
They did away with drink servers and now customers get there
