Jack: 

  A few things have happened recently at Circus, Circus that you may be interested in. About a month ago there was a blanket raise for dealers... I have not really sat down and figured out the details... but in essence it seems as though just about everybody got a 75 cent per hour raise OUT OF THE BLUE... if you want further information I can probably dig it out for you.   

  IN ADDITION... yesterday (4-22-01) there was a letter posted by management stating that dealer employees with one year of service at any specific Mandalay Bay Property would get preferential treatment when requesting a transfer to another property. 

  This included certain specifications that stated that the request for the transfer would have to be made by the employees supervisor, rather than through personnel (as done prior) and that the transfer would be subject to the dealer passing standard auditions for their specified games. 

  Though there are other issues that were not addressed (transfer of benefits, shift preferences, and vacation credits) these two recent and most visible changes constitute some major shifts in thinking by the Mandalay Bay Properties management team and in my opinion are a direct result of the recent pressures brought to bear by you and your Transport Worker associates. 

  If you need more information let me know.  I trust that you and you associates are documenting the many not-so-visible improvements that have occurred in the Vegas workplace in an indirect fashion despite our losses in many of the casino elections. Hope this note cheers you up and that you will forward this information to our good friends. 

Regards...
