  1. We can see the background. It’s not hard to figure out who she is.

  2. Your pay check will be effected! This turned out to be bigger than what they said Saturday! Your employee won’t get direct deposit?

  3. Why would we care what is costing a company that cheats and robs people blindly? If you visited your information is at risk that’s what your concern should be. They overcharged and scammed people for decades. They also tell you to visit and don’t care if they are infested with bed bugs.

  4. And this is why you have a manual failover for everthing. The entire casino floor should be completelty segregated, local only, no internet connection, and manual updates by admins only. Some things are best left old school. Our nuclear launch grid is offline for good reason. This should be too.

  5. Why they think they won’t find out who she is just look at her hair and shirt

  6. Hackers winning 2023 💪💪💪💪

  7. Was/is the password uh ADMIN or "F"(X)2024 where x denotes politician? MGM1234? BLANK?

  8. Voice and face hidden, but you can’t hide that way of talking…

  9. Good maybe MGM knows what it's like to loose millions of dollars each day

  10. Even with the bad economic, My life has totally changed since I started with $3,000 and now I make $68,700 every 14days for the past 3 months, I can afford any car or house of my choice right now and I don’t need to worry about my retirement ….,God bless Mrs Eleanor Nelson

  11. communists in soviet union tried very hard to create society that's equal where you don't envy your neighbor where everybody equal in wealth where no one suffering from extreme poverty,,on the other hand liberals in america tried so hard to create society that's unequal where you envy your neighbor,where there are very wealthy billionaires and there are big homeless population that's suffering from extreme poverty and dying from hunger and harsh conditions on the streets ..

  12. Ukrainians wear traditional Chinese clothes in China, this is the reaction of Chinese passers-by to them Test on the treatment of foreigners in China https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzCd_civzQQ

  13. And they don't want to hire people who have no experience.

    I'm fresh out of college and have been looking for Jobs

  14. Making money is an action. Keeping money is a behavior, but “growing money is wisdom”. I found this out a week ago after getting a $10,000 return on my $3,000 investment in 7 days.

  15. "It's only the beginning. Take it back to pin and paper." i agree with you friend 😎

  16. Which sounds stupid as what this ppl are talking of gambling which some ppl Attitiude towards it .which not alot of ppl gamble .

  17. ….gee, guess they couldn't charge those thieving RESORT FEES either, huh? I have no sympathy for those crooks.

  18. Maybe it's a secret symbolism to tell people not to be gambling anymore😮

  19. oops!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  20. It's only the beginning. Take it back to pin and paper.

  21. This guy hilarious 😂 already trying to blame employees. THEY ARE END USES😂

  22. Do you remember the good old days when we wrote checks and put coins in slot machines?

  23. OH, NO!!! I'm scheduled to attend a slot tournament this weekend at Bellagio and now I'm hesitant to go IF I'm going to have to deal with some of the issues described: No Room Key Access, Slot Machines down, Player's Club rating system down, MGM's website down,Ticket-in/Ticket-out (TITO) system down, Room charging system down, Cashier Cage voucher redemption system down and even ATMs down… oh, wait… that last one is actually a PLUS! 🙂 I'll need to contact my Slot Host to determine if the Slot Tournament will proceed [notably, slot tournament machines are separate and distinct from slot machines located on casino floor, as they work off a pre-set credit/meter and do not require insertion of cash or vouchers to play]. The positive spin to this is that many other slot tournament players will more than likely decide to forgo attending the tournament which will, in effect, increase my odds of winning the top prize (though, per standard slot tournament rules, the top prize is likely to be adjusted based on the number of entrants participating). It'l be an interesting trip indeed.

  24. Sounds like they have way too many things connected to one system.
