Read about this last year. Local employment companies state they have plenty of experienced employees to send over for interviews but they are never contacted by Mar-a-Lago.
Most of the visa workers are from Eastern European nations who are willing to work for lower wages than Americans in order to get their foot in the U.S. door.
One would think the Secret Service would put a halt to his practice of having foreign nationals with such easy access to the POTUS.
What if a Muslim slips in?
Or a Russian spy?
It's a shocking situation.
I just hope they go through the appropriate and extreme two year vetting process.
As as they have "WHITE SKIN" he is fine with it !!!! wonder how many "Russian Oligarch's set this up". he thinks he can get workers who could qualify to fit the requirement of the "White Nationalist Criteria" and blend in without detection, because there is no concern about illegal immigrants from any country where the people are basically of "white skin".
In the wages in the state of Florida, there are many who will work for any wage above the minimum wage. the other question is... "why does he not pay the Media Wage, when he has "lied" and told the followers of his madness, that he was for creating "Living Wage Jobs", but he can't do that even at his own properties, after he "doubled the membership fee".... Great Example of "Greed" !!!! yet, his minions who follow him simply are too self blinded by fiction to see.
Transportation allowance ( common in parts of Florida)
Pre- hire drug and background check
Palm Beach hosts a pre season Jobs Fair. Mar-a-Lago does not participate.
According to the link, Mar-a-Lago hires mostly from Romania and Haiti H2B visa workers.
Trump Admin increased the number of H2B three year visas from 60,000 to 75,000. That's 225,000 H2B visas workers in the US at any point in time.
The cut in corporate tax rate is being sold as a job creation bill that will result in higher wages for employees. Yet, here is one business that won't pay more to hire US workers.

President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort has been granted 70 visas to bring in foreign workers for the winter season, The Palm Beach Post reports.
That’s a 9 percent increase from last year, when Mar-a-Lago hired 64 workers under the H-2B visa program.
The new visas will go to 20 foreign cooks, 35 waiters and 15 maids and housekeepers for the 2017-18 tourist season, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. They’ll earn hourly wages from $10.33 (for the cleaners) to $13.34 (for the cooks). The temporary visas allow them to work from October 2017 to the end of May 2018.
hallmark of Trump’s presidential campaign and a stated push of his administration is that U.S. companies should hire American workers. He has criticized Ford Motor Company, Carrier Corp. and others for moving manufacturing jobs to Mexico. Mar-a-Lago was applying for the foreign worker visas this July when the president launched “Made in America Week.â€
Trump said at the time, “We believe jobs must be offered to American workers first. Does that make sense?â€
If Obama had had a business that did such a thing Trump and the Republicans would have been be raking him over the coals. Perfect fodder for their type of cannon.
Well, that's sheety news. Just confirms you can't trust anyone in office. And Americans wonder why nobody shows up to vote. Really? Whats the point?
That is the point. The Republicans quite frankly don't want your vote.
You can not protest these iniquities by boycotting the polls, that is how this type of insult goes on (and gets worse). It requires more engagement from us, not less.

This why I don't vote nothing ever changes things tend to stay the same or get worse We're duped into thinking that it matters but look at our history and in the end nothing really changes.
It doesn't matter which party your with.

You don’t vote, and you complain that nothing changes...?
Well, wonders never cease.
