00:00stop doom scrolling we did it for you here's what you need to know with amy and sean on 1027 vgs
00:07all right mgm resorts international being sued by a woman that gambled in mississippi
00:13over what i think is one of the most annoying things ever you ever see the movie office space
00:18yeah okay so you know the whole premise behind the crime in office space yeah is they found a
00:23way to shave off the fractions of pennies on every transaction right i'm pretty sure that's
00:28what all the casinos just said to do wait what if we just never gave them the change we know a lot of
00:34them won't cash it in right exactly what's happened here so uh class action lawsuit filed against mgm
00:41resorts this week regarding those payout tickets you see this everywhere you pay a slot play a slot
00:46rather you print out the ticket let's say it's 18.12 you put it into the ticket machine it pays you out
00:5118 and it prints out a ticket for 12 cents you then have to take the ticket to go to the casino
00:58cage to get the 12 in line no one is going to do this well i would do it for 12 cents my mom would
01:06do it as well because but if you're not doing it then you're the issue like go get your nobody's
01:13saying you can't do it i know they're making it inconvenient but go do it if you want your 12 cents
01:17here's the thing i get overcharged weekly weekly at the grocery store yeah they'll say this is 10 for
01:2510 and then you look at your receipt it's like no it was three dollars like you know each one was
01:30three dollars that doesn't make any sense don't say so that oh did you put it on the app they make it
01:34very inconvenient for you to get these sales you have to put it on the app you got to scan the thing
01:39you got to go to customer service and all the things sure so when i go home and i look okay i
01:44was overcharged three dollars am i going to go to the grocery store and get my three dollars no but when
01:49i'm driving around or buy i will stop in and get my three dollars i think the argument is is like when
01:54i play the slot machine i'm not putting in 47 and saying oh the other three is over at my house you
02:00guys can go get it at my house we're giving them the full 50. so they should give us the full money back
02:05and the machines can do it for sure yeah and this happens at the station casinos i love you
02:10i'm seeing it at red rock i've seen it everywhere this is happening everywhere so now she's suing
02:15saying uh you know we just know that you guys are just you're skimming off the top done end of now
02:20here where she was 30 days you have to cash in that ticket or it's gone here in nevada you have 180
02:26days nevada law and of whatever money doesn't get collected 75 goes to the state
02:34the 25 goes to the casino last year last fiscal year 22 million dollars was not collected off of
02:41those tickets so i believe it good for her i believe i had a ticket um for circa it was 17
02:49and i was like i'm not ever going back down there what am i going to do with this i tried to give it
02:54to the guy who was drying my car at the car wash if he wouldn't take it i was like it's 17 bucks
02:59this is a good tip for you he's like it's actually nothing this is like paper
03:04thanks he scoffed at a 17 that's ridiculous uh he could have used it to pay his energy bills
03:10envy energy just sent you something in the mail no not a birthday card as a matter of fact it's
03:15just a notice to expect higher bills next month single-family homes should see an increase on average
03:20about six percent those in apartments could see their bill jump six and a half percent the reason is the
03:26cost of natural gas the fuel is increasing therefore they're passing the price along to
03:30you and the energy says this is not a profit to us we're just simply giving you the added cost of the
03:36natural gas direct to you they're not seeing any of that money so yeah that's why we opened the i
03:42text my husband this morning and i was like it was so nice having the windows open and he said yeah
03:46i'm done with our energy bill and the summer like i'm done with it so we're gonna start doing windows
03:51open we're just sweating it's just we're over it i'm on strike i'm not paying nv energy actually i
03:57got a solar getting installed very soon we have solar love it can't wait yeah i love it oh it'd be
04:03energy 18 bucks there go ahead enjoy that on july finally uh ccsd is sort of making the grade last
04:10august they changed how grading is done among the many things that changed behavior is removed from
04:15grading so if you're absent a lot or if you don't participate that's not going to count against your
04:19grade it doesn't make any sense it also allows for quote opportunities for reflection that allow
04:25students the opportunity to reassess their abilities and of course in other words retake a test if they
04:29didn't like how that first test went so so far ccsd is like hey there's less students with f's
04:35there's more students with a's ah and the teachers and parents at the meeting last night for the uh
04:41board of trustees were like uh no this reassessment deal you get kids that aren't applying themselves at
04:46all they're not going to class they're not doing their class work they're failing miserably at the
04:50test and they're like i want to take it again so then the teacher has to make a new test for them to
04:54take and it takes a while which annoys the student and it's like this yeah i will say if they're if the
05:00kids are being that lazy where they're not going like i would say 50 of them maybe 75 are not going to
05:05even attempt to retake it i have money on that because if i mean i know that i was lazy and if it was like
05:11ah you could take it again i'm like i got other things to do am i passing we good all right here
05:17we go so the time for this uh i'm not sure if you know i'm popular and i have friends and places
05:24to be yeah i didn't have that problem i went to public access and just didn't do my homework that's
