Why are locals treated badly?
And at this time of all times (shooting)...
The most unwelcoming place I have been to lately as a Local.
Sad, for I live on the Strip! I had not visited Sky Lounge in 2 years. Back then always had a good experience. My Bartender most often a Hispanic gentleman...and gentleman he always was to me and all customers.
I was overlooked today while tourist/visitors were welcomed. How did bartender know I was local? Is a lone female assumed to be a prostitute? My drink order was wrong. Ordered a French 75 and incorrect liquor used. It was Happy Hour so I wasn't going to complain. The drink was untasty. Drank one (2for1) but left the other.
Ordered food and was not given utensils, nor offered any. Yet the couple to my left and the 20 somethings to my right were catered to, given a warm hospitality welcome...
The saving grace was a bartender/bareback
Who asked if I needed anything.
I work in the service industry, serving minimum 500 people per day. I will not return to Sky Lounge and when asked about places to go by my customers, I will definitely tell them to avoid Stratosphere and the Sky Lounge!
