Chances

I was only really wondering about working contions at chances and wages as if we keep sliding we’ll all be working there!!! :imp:

I’d rather work at Mcdonalds than Chances, I spent a year at Instaloans watching people throw their money away…can’t do it again  :stuck_out_tongue:

  I know they go through alot of managers in the lounge. They had a couple move from Ontario, they bought a house in Prince Rupert and expected to start a life here. Then I heard there was a problem with whatever management has a problem with, and they were let go. I do not know what happened to these people but I am sure they regret the move.

to move to a different province to work at a restaurant isnt smart anyway. unless there was a gaurantee of employment thru a contract

Every time I was in Chances (which was only once LOL)the service lacked!!Stale pop,pricey drinks, a turkey buffet with no mashed potatoes???waaaawaaa anyway !!!No one seemed to like what they were doin !!!So i thought maybe the wages were low because i work in the Regina casino and customer service was outstanding or u didn’t work there period.I believe this casino came here without researching the work force available to them.They trained their management but not the employee.Poor training begots bad service!!

I’ve gotten excellent service in the lounge b4, sure it was a little slow (it was busy), but the server was outgoing and friendly.  I’ve found the security staff to be rude, could have been an off day on thier part - but it resulted in the loss of a customer.
For all the money they make I think they should be paying more than 9 bucks an hour

chances is owned by a few partners in prince George they did a expansion
there and i think there draining this operation to pay for prince George.

yea doubt it

WHY? its no different then what George petty did to repap.

Lots more happened than Petty taking money for his expansions. The union went on strike in 1999 for 10 weeks when pulp prices were high … went back to work for 25 cents less than what was offered 10 weeks before. We lost a lot of customers back then.

why is there always some conspiracy with you?

I worked at chances the manager is great the owners not so much.  Lots of people who may not know a lot about working conditions etc were and still are being taken advantage of.  People who want to gamble will gamble where ever ie the lottery kiosk in the mall or at the casino. I lasted 6 months only because things kept changing …ie hired for one job but kept getting put to other jobs.  I liked the people I worked with lots of hard working people ( majority)

I think if you stayed for the one year the money was to get a lot better ( increase of 2 -3 dollars per hour) not being there now can’t say if that happened or not.

My friend just got fired from there he was a security man,he was very
committed and didn’t deserve the treatment he got.

Sure having a bad run of luck between family and friends having problems these days there ajaye.

Then he wouldnt of got fired…

Your facts are wrong on almost everything you write. For the record, The owners of Chances have nothing to do with the Casino in PG, so it would be impossible to be subsidizing that project…

Well before you go accusing someone else of not having their facts straight, might be helpful if you knew what you were throwing out there as well I guess…

The Treasure Cove group does indeed have interests in both Prince Rupert and Terrace Chances operations.

While the item above is dated back to 2008, I believe that they are now the ones building a new entertainment centre for Terrace as well.

Actually much of Ajaye46’s info is right including what DarcyMcGee has shown.

Hardly an accusation when its the truth. You are profoundly wrong in all that you spew…

There is no such thing as the “treasure cove group”. And once again, the owners of Chances have nothing to do with either the Casino in PG, nor, the Chances in Terrace. Go back to doing your homework.

Can you explain why all these newspaper articles refer to West Coast Hospitality as operating the Casino in PG and Chances in Prince Rupert?

Or would you just rather insult people?

Bull shit i know what I’m saying .John Major and stewart Ramsey .they run
chances with Greg i know everything.
