$5,000 Welcome Bonus
There are currently over 1,800 open hotel jobs in Las Vegas. Why can’t Sin City’s resorts fill the vacant positions? Experts say these resorts are going to have to start sharing their profits to attract workers.
A Large Number of Open Hotel Jobs In Las Vegas
If you’re looking for work, now may be the time to get that hospitality job you’ve been looking for on the Las Vegas Strip and surrounding areas. There’s an article by Ryan Matthey on 8NewsNow.comwhich quotes an Indeed.comreport that there are over 1,800 open hotel jobs in town.
Now, to be honest, that really isn’t that many openings. Because, when you consider that the Las Vegas Visitor and Convention Authority (LVCVA) recently reported that there are close to 230,000 total hotel jobs in Sin City.
Many Las Vegas Resorts Experiencing Hiring Struggles
Matthey’s article goes on to quote Stephen Miller, who is the “director of research for UNLV’s Center for Business and Economic Research. His work shows that there are approximately ten open hotel jobs in the valley for every six workers.
Many of these job openings are Culinary Union jobs. Per the union’s website, those positions include: “Guest room attendants, cocktail and food servers, porters, bellmen, cooks, bartenders, laundry and kitchen workers.”
Experts Say Resorts Must Share Their Huge Profits to Fill Open Hotel Jobs
I have written articles reporting that our city has seen visitor totals rise, gaming totals rise, and hotel room profits rise. So, if there are hiring struggles, why don’t Las Vegas resorts and casinos offer better incentives?
I’m no expert, but that seems like common sense to me. Additionally, there will be more resorts opening on the Las Vegas Strip soon. In fact, the 8NewsNow.com post quotes a source who says there will be about 6,500 job openings to fill at our city’s newest resort, Fontainebleau Las Vegas.
Our city has certainly rebounded since the COVID-19 pandemic shut everything down.
Items You Can NOT Take From Your Hotel Room
If you’re traveling anytime soon, some of the things you should NOT take from your hotel room since it’s considered “stealing”! Although a lot of us think we can take anything and everything, hotel have drawn the line on items that we took for granted!
The Mike & Carla Morning Show made it a point to bring up an article in Reader’s Digest that talked about those items you can and can’t take. C’mon, let’s be honest, we’ve all stuffed just about everything from the hotel bathroom in our suitcase…from shampoos to towels…but guess what? These items as well might be off limits moving forward depending on the hotel you stay in.
If you think about it, what is the one thing you’ve taken from your room over the years? Bars of soap, shoe polish, sewing kits, maybe a pair of slippers? Heck, most people will bring an extra bag just for the stuff in the room. Well, The Mike & Carla Morning Show brought this up and the guilt complex started to set in.
Now when you talk about “stolen” items, believe it or not, robes is not the number one item…I know, shocking right? Now there are a few thing you actually can take with out feeling guilty like the shampoo, soap as we had mentioned earlier. You can also take the pen and paper with letterhead on it that’s in the hotel desk…but you can’t take the entire desk itself!
Anything you get as labeled “complimentary” you can also feel free to pack away in your luggage as you leave…but that’s about it right now. I know, a lot of us assume everything is up for grabs when we check in, but believe it or not, hotels are cracking down!
It’s all in this morning’s segment of “A Few Things We Think You Should Know”…but if you want to find out the Top 3 things you can NOT take, and we have no doubt #1 will SHOCK (shock) you, just scroll down and enjoy!
