However the male officer doing the security screening, wanted to know where I was going (don't think it was his business to ask the public walking into a public building). He was not friendly at all, please replace him with someone not jaded. I told him 3rd floor and he Mansplained ... the second floor is the first floor, because there's a lower level (1st floor if you asked me). What the heck, I can count floors, I understand how they work. He had me all turned around, what a nit wit. I'll ask if I need help, which I didn't. He represents the county in That building, do better. Three stars because the ladies upstairs were 5 stars and he was 1.

I refuse again to ever go back here, I tried to get them another chance and that was a mistake. This last time I came here to try and get a Real Id done and there were no other customers there - only me and they told me it would be a 45 minute wait. I asked them why since I was literally the only customer in the place and they said they had paperwork to catch up on before they could help me. What?!? I told them don't bother and I left. Ridiculous.

I explained that I had tried calling multiple times for two days, with no answer. She argued that they always answer the phone.

Something to note in this: I have ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder.) I say this because it matters,…read moreespecially when you get to how I got treated there. If you're tribal, this isn't a bad place to be. You'll be treated way better than the non-tribal employees. Sadly for me, I'm not tribal. I worked at the Firelake Grand Casino as third shift security. For nearly three months, I listened to a long list of comments from a housekeeper that had a bit of a crush on me. Needless to say, it got disturbing really fast. The comments started with how she had hoped I would ask her out, progressed to how and if I ever left my wife, we could be together, and finally went into asking my co-workers about me when I wasn't there. The fact that I told her that I was married did not matter. I made a complaint with the third shift security supervisor, who basically swept it under the rug. Within 48 hours, I wrote out a complaint, gave it to another security supervisor, and it went to HR. Because of this, I got chewed out by my shift supervisor, something that is actually illegal but this tribe does whatever it wants without regard to the law. From there, I endured three weeks of targeted retaliation from two of my three supervisors, one being the security shift supervisor. During this time, I was written up (the first write-up ever in my work history) for having a phone after the casino closed. Our supervisor approved of this, nobody else got wrote up either, just me. I was reprimanded for making the harassment complaint, I informed them that if a woman had made this complaint, none of the things that were happening would be happening. I was met with hostility on nearly every occasion in which I tried to speak to the supervisors, meanwhile, the girl I made the report against, was still conducting herself as she had before the report. Finally, on 4/14/2023, I was suspended from work without explanation. All I was told was that an investigation had begun... not against the girl but rather it was against me. Three days later I was terminated for allegedly making a threat, though they couldn't seem to explain what threat it was that I had made nor against who. It boiled down to this: I got fired for being a man who filed a harassment claim against a female co-worker, an act that very clearly angered my immediate supervisors. Out of retaliation, they fired me for it but had to give a reason that seemed legal. What they didn't know was this: I recorded that phone call. This place is a terrible place to work, you mean nothing to them and if you're non-tribal, you're walking on glass as far as your employment there goes.

I was reading my Monthy newsletter from the Citizen Potawatomi Nation when I thought why not Yelp…read moreit so here it is. When my son was born my grandmother told me that I must register myself and my son as tribal members of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation. It was important to her because my grandfather was proud of his heritage. So I registered (certified birth certificate showing my relationship to my father who was registered). They offer low income housing for those living at the reservation and social services. The tribe has pow wow's across the nation so those that do not live in Oklahoma have an opportunity to learn about the culture, have some food and watch the dancers dressed in traditional attire. I have attended a couple of them where I live in Los Angeles.
