UP TO 50 jobs are to be created with the opening of a 24-hour casino near Sheffield city centre next month.
The £5 million G Casino in Duchess Road opens on Thursday December 9, featuring gaming equipment, cocktails and a plush dining area.

The new venture, off Queens Road follows the closure of Grosvenor Casino Sheffield, which is owned by the same gro
up and is due to shut the week before.

The 23,500 square foot casino will offer 10 gaming tables, 33 electronic terminals and 24 jackpot slot machines, as well as a 100-seater poker room.

#1, a.s.e. - yeah, there's sure to be an army of traders in human flesh, rounding people up at the tip of a machete, forcing them to work in such terrible surroundings for pin money...

...or maybe these 50 "new" jobs will be taken by people exercising their free will and choosing to take what's on offer, while other people decide not to bother.

Thanks, a.s.e. but that's ok. I'll exercise my free choice not to bother, and I'll earn my living elsewhere for the price I'm willing to accept for my labour - just as those that choose to do these jobs will do here.

*All the comments so far are well in favour of the promised land.
I do not think it will be long before some do gooder misery guts will pop up and say all these places want shutting.
What will you do then.???
There's always a snag isn't there ???

Nice bit of PR spin, but this is the same casino operating from the same building, albeit with some nice, new cladding.

Yes it looks good on the job front how about applying for a job at gamblers anon, im sure their business will thrive as did alcohol anon when the pubs were allowed to open all day. A lot has been said about "binge drinking" and pubs opened all day how long before gambling is talked about all over the media?

It's a growth industry creating poverty amongst others. No I'll just have one more try at this creating poverty is a growth industry...no next time it will all come right won't it...buddy can you spare a dime I'll gladly pay you back with my next donation to the party on Tuesday or is that Wednesday?
Good that the money's there to do it - but whose?
The effluent of Sheffield always rise to the surface at times like this as we can see and pretend that they are creating jobs and not ruining lives - well they can afford to can't they? Make yourself a Ltd. Co. and you can do the same...
