It was a lovely day, bright and sunny in Springfield, Massachusetts when a very bored Jim Cline interviewed me for the obligatory 3o sec. spot for anti-casino position in the 2:37 minute report about Mohegan Sun laying of 5% of workforce.
Plenty of nutter for this fluff!

"For over 2 years we retained the employment level despite the fact that we have embraced and embedded new technology which permits us to run a more efficient operation."
Don't you think this statement has a definite Jon Lovitz feel to it? Sort of like...
"So we're not really firing anyone... we're just... steamlining... yeah, yeah... the economy is fine... just fine... people are gambling like crazy... Mohegan Sun is doing great... yeah, yeah... that's the ticket... we could have a casino up and running in 6 months... and my wife, Morgan Fairchild, will be headlining in the lounge... yeah, yeah... "
Mohegan Sun cuts 355 jobs
includes:
Mohegan Sun has cut 900 jobs through attrition since the recession began in the autumn of 2008.
All of this raises the interesting question of whether these are some of the low wage workers recruited from overseas because Mohegan Sun failed to pay a reasonable 'living wage' forcing many to live in substandard housing. Where are they now?
