Fucking good. As a Vegas local her crazy shit has been scaring the fuck out of me. Glad this will hopefully start getting national attention.

Apparently she said she thinks she had the coronavirus in January and she thinks it isn't a big deal. She is a God damn lying moron.

Even if we aren't getting hit hard right now, it is a very big deal. She's been crying about closing down ever since Sisolak gave the order to shut down essential businesses. I'm embarrassed to have her as my mayor.

Yep. Oscar Goodman was relatively liked and still liked to this day even though he's supposedly a huge ass in real life.

That wouldn't be surprising. This pandemic is really lowering my opinion of her and making me really glad we elected Sisolak in 2018.

Dammit Goodman, you and your Vegas agenda are ruining it for those of us in northern Nevada. Sisolak can't open anything until Vegas is safe, and this is not helping get there at all.

If my social media feeds are any indication (most likely not, at least I hope not) people aren't very happy with Sisolak either. I think he's doing a decent job and making some good decisions in order to keep us safe. Bunch of casino workers feel like he's fucking them over, even though it was their employer (besides Wynn surprisingly) that fucked them.

He did the right thing though. He ordered the closures early and that helped prevent an onslaught of cases. Because of that, we'll most likely be one of the first to open systematically and feel safe in doing so.

I understand her point.

On one hand, business want to open for potential revenue. They are in danger of going bankrupt after all. This mayor believes it's up to the business owners and their customers to make decisions thst will affect their health.

On the other hand, people around the world are scared and want leaders like the mayor to do what they can to control the virus. Including forcing a shut down of private owned businesses.

No one is to blame but the virus. People have different view point on how to handle, as usual

I didn't like Sisolak when he closed everything down, seemingly putting me out of work. But I realized I couldn't blame him, he did what he had to. I now understand he is doing things the right way and quelling the outbreaks should come first.

I guess that makes me a lab rat since I work in a casino...
I was thinking my casino would call us back late May & have a soft reopening early June with some of the same guidelines we put in place right before we closed. Only every other machine on, only 3 players per table, increased hand sanitizer stations, etc. I also think they should keep the hotels in the city closed until maybe July. We've done a good job at "flattening the curve" but some states around us haven't and it's only gonna take one infected person coming here and kicking this off again

I'm a financial statement auditor who specializes in the casino gaming industry. Most of my clients don't expect to be open until September at the earliest. My biggest client, which is a top 10 casino in the country, thinks it could very well be 2021 before they open back up.

The idea of opening them now is ludicrous.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if the casinos have a soft reopening next month. If other casinos adopt the Wynn's plan, it would be safe and possible. As for the hotel, that one's tricky and might have to wait until summer.

What about for the locals? Locals do go down to the Strip sometimes to eat and for entertainment.

I work at one of Stations local casinos in Henderson and I have no doubt that many of our regulars will come back should we open in a month or so. Casinos on the strip are a whole different monster. I just don't think it would be worth it for them to open back up yet. No concerts, limited gaming, and I know people aren't gonna want to be dining in a buffet any time soon.

That I would agree with. The local casinos would be ok in terms of business. The Strip is another issue.

Even if she did open up, these casinos would either not open, or be running at skeleton crews right? Because I doubt they'll be getting enough tourists and customers in regardless.

My point is, some of the "open up" stuff seems like just rhetoric.

To play devil advocate and to give very good charity, she's saying that she can't give the casinos or whatever, the specific instructions. Ultimately it's up to the casino to have their internal rules on how to limit the spread.

She should really just say it better and spin some shit on how the companies will work with her administration to ensure they're doing xyz

Maybe she can't tell casinos what to do but the state can. A week before everything was shut down our casino received this new set of guidelines we had to follow to limit the spread. I imagine when we do reopen we will be back to adhering to those rules for a while.

Most likely. They'll probably be updated as well to lesson the chance of a second shutdown.
