New job adventures

I started working in the new spa at Caesar's Palace last week. It officially opened to the public on Tuesday the 14th. It's been kinda crazy and there have been quite a few kinks to smooth out-everyone's still learning all the new things and how everything is going to work. The spa is very pretty and big. It's 50,000 square feet and has 51 treatment rooms, not including the other parts of the spa like the sauna, roman baths, steam room, etc. I got the closing shift since I was the last one hired and I'm at the bottom of the totem pole. I've been staying about 30 min later than my scheduled shift every night though, because there's been so much to do and I'm the only one there (for the women's side) to close. I think they are trying to hire more people though, so hopefully that and some other things will get better with time.
One thing that I like is that my hour lunch break is paid and they also have an employee dining room which is like a smallish buffet and the food there is all free for employees. I still need to find out about what sort of perks or discounts I get in the spa so I can start pampering myself a little bit occasionally. Someone said they thought we could get a free massage or spa treatment every so often, so I'll have to check on that.
