Under Culinary contract, we’re supposed to be treated just like any other married couple because we
LOPEZ: Hundreds of workers from across the Las Vegas valley members of the Culinary Workers Union and the Bartenders Union rallied outside of The Cosmopolitan green bay packers playoff tickets Hotel and Casino. The demonstrations were in response to the expiration of and slow pace to extend green bay packers playoff tickets 44,000 union contracts, as well as the on-going green bay packers playoff tickets negotiations with The Cosmopolitan.
DE MANZO: My name is Michelle de Manzo, I'm a cashier at The Wicked Spoon in The Cosmopolitan Hotel. The reason we are rallying is because we want to have our contract. We've been negotiating for at least two years now for our health benefits, that are very important, guaranteed work week, and successorship. The hotel is up for sale and we want to make sure that we have our guaranteed jobs if the company green bay packers playoff tickets is sold.
LOPEZ: Members of the Culinary Workers Union have been [fighting] The Cosmopolitan and Deutsche Bank of Frankfurt for what they say is the same standard of living as the rest of the strip workers. They have also been trying to organize Station Casinos partly owned by Deutsche Bank for years.
In October, the National Labor Relations Board found Station Casinos to have violated federal green bay packers playoff tickets labor law in dozens of cases, the largest number of unfair labor practices committed by a single employer in the history of Nevada gaming.
O'BRIEN: We want to make sure that families are allowed to feed their children, make sure that families green bay packers playoff tickets are allowed to have the proper health care for their family that's not gonna cost them half their paycheck. It's fair, it's right, it's just and we want to keep it that way.
I have a domestic partner, legally my husband in California. For us, it will close loopholes that discriminate against us. Several years ago before I worked at Cosmopolitan, my better half worked at another company. On New Years Eve my father passed away. I had to fly home to Kentucky. My partner, Bill, tried to get off and the manager said he could not let him off because of our "special circumstances." So, I had to fly home alone. I had to do all the planning of my father's funeral without my partner by my side. And, it was a very hard situation.
Under Culinary green bay packers playoff tickets contract, we're supposed to be treated just like any other married couple because we are considered domestic partners. And no one else will have to go through what we went through at that time. I will say, that's one thing that Cosmopolitan has said yes to tentatively. So, it's a hard thing but its a good thing that has come to an end. Hopefully, there will be a day where that won't be an issue anymore.
LOPEZ: The Cosmopolitan declined to interview. In an an email statement Cosmopolitan green bay packers playoff tickets spokesperson, Amy Rossetti, stated that 'The majority of the Las Vegas Strip is in contract negotiations with the Union. The Cosmopolitan management continues to negotiate in good faith with the Union. Our highest priority is the safety and comfort of our guests and CoStars.'
