Having worked in several casinos I would have to say yes.Their ending in all of it is the bottom line.For instance I worked as a cook in one for 14 months, 2 weeks, and 2 days. On the one night I called in sick, to the point of not being able to hold anything down, the next day I was fired. They state the reason because I supposdly did not call in soon enough. I called them at 6am my shift did not start until 3 pm. I still have the check stubs from that casino where I was putting in over time. I was working over 100 hours every two week period.They would not give me a raise because of the over time, so I was making 6.50 an hour when I started and when I was fired. It did not matter to them that I had over 18 years experience in the field of cooking, at that time.As they like to point out, cooks are easy to replace.so if you are guided by the bottom line then I think that you are corrupt, because the individual does not matter it is the bottom line.
