I know I saw that.And I laughed because I saw that video with that person from the Rant first.But I thought 12,000 positions was too much.Plus we are in the middle of a recession still.I thought for all the projects there a good number would be about 7,500-9,000 positions.But 12,000?Seemed a little high to me.I remember Aliante Station in NLV employed right around 1,500 and that looked like a good number.I know you can't compare one little Local Casino to the huge CityCenter project but I'm just saying...............

I feel bad for those employees who left a job for the City Center opportunity.
