Also, regarding CHAZBEANs comment:

Stating you graduated from UNLV or any college is hugely frowned upon in this town because it means you can think for yourself and make independent decisions.

Vegas corporations say they want educated employees, but what they require is a docile workforce that won't innovate their current business practices.

Outside corporations won't move here because our population lacks an education because casinos, hotels and restaurants don't want it. Vegas has a huge docile workforce that just works with the cards they are dealt. They want the money and are thus clock-in/clock-out employees. They are just consumers.

Somethings are universal:

Regardless of how one dresses in the interview the quality of work is still the same.

Answering these out-dated interview questions has never solved the issue of turnover being so high in the restaurant industry.

They can ask as many insipid questions as they want in order to gauge customer service, but no one knows how they'll really perform until the day they start.

The interview process is so skewed and subjective that it's not a good test of anyone's true ability and skills. Interviewers will judge your appearance and then consider your skills.

They are looking for young, attractive people to work the front of house who will leave within 6 months because the mgmt hired all of their inexperienced friends who have no idea how to run a new restaurant and Mexicans will take all of the work in the back of the house.

Mexicans working in the BOH is not a terrible thing it's just how it is. I just wish HR would stop this dog and pony show acting as if everyone has a fair chance. They should go down the line of 120 people and pick and choose and save everyone the effort, time and stress.

Probably the worst looking logo I've seen yet. This is the best we could do as a country with all of our ad agencies! How the heck are people suppose to even relate this to the USA or travel? We are red, white and blue. They could have at least acknowledged the color scheme of our national flag.

Which company forgot to fill out the trademark application? There's also a Social House in City Center, although it doesn't get any press. I can see the naming rights becoming a very confusing problem for all parties involved, esp w. social media and web domains. Personally, I would consider a name a little more interesting than 'Public House' if I want to be in business longer than 2 years.

If only they didn't try to compete with Strip properties. You can't want the locals and try to compete with the Strip properties. There's a reason us locals only go to the Strip restaurants for a special occasion- it's a rip-off.

Also, the dome of the Plaza never looks that good, there's always some stage in front of it.

Smiths can have a pit full of slot machines, but stocking ice cream with a funny name is seen as a way to corrupt kids. The HORROR!!! With the overabundance of advertising in supermarkets for junk food I doubt this ice cream even gets a passing glance unless you're looking for it.

With that said there is no such thing as bad press and this womens group is doing more to sell that ice cream than any other piece of publicity. Can I hire them?

The news make it seem as if Zappos is the only company interested in making Las Vegas its base of operations, when plenty of companies are headquartered in LV. Zappos is just better at bilking the public for all it's worth. The PR machine is in overdrive for Zappos about their benefits to the community, but High Tech Lights LLC manages to move here without the red carpet and special treatment that Tony Hsieh needs.

This article makes me wonder if us locals aren't getting ripped off by our local Subway and other fast food restaurants. Wendys and Carls Jr being the main culprits.

When we people learn that you will always get what you pay for. There are no shortcuts in life. If you want a quality job, done right you will have to pay the price.

For those who come to Vegas for the room and the "view" (overrated) this is a great list. The other 99% of us are actually living it up in Vegas. The room is where guests spend the least amount of time, why worry about it so much?. You check in, throw your bags in the room, change and start enjoying Sin City.
