    People always judging the Mexicans but i dont see any white people applying for any of those positions. Better yet i dont see any white people in the fields picking vegetables or washing cars at the car wash or maids or nannies or gardeners all you negative people need to shut the hell up . I want to see your asses out there in the hot ass sun picking fruit and vegetables and doing all the jobs that none of you want to do but you will go to Mexico for your vacations and thats cool and your not complaining.
    You all need to take a step back and realize that Mexicans wirk hard for what they have. Dont disrespect the culture! !!!!!!

      I was that white guy!
      As a teen worked as a car washer (got to wash celebrity cars), also took a job in an orchard (was informed by the owner that I was white, no really), and was a gardener for several years (oi are customers overly picky!)
      My only trip to Mexico was to help rebuild a small church that has lost its roof. (My first experience seeing dirt floors in domestic use).

      Really!? A company is hiring and the first thing you think of is illegal immigrants? WOW!

    … and, here we go, again! Its more low paying service jobs for illegal immigrants, here in Mexifornia! For U.S. citizens seeking employment? Go fish –

    • William says

      June 11, 2017 at 8:41 pm

      Oh, Roger

      If you gave it any thought (or could) you’d know that it takes more than just service jobs to design and build a hotel, y’know engineers, architects, carpenters, plumbers, etc.

      And what, do tell, do you do for a living; brain surgery?

    • Mark says

      June 27, 2017 at 7:17 am

      Do you post this type of response when a fast food chain hires?

    Rex has fond far worse in his life than to try to get a large Buddha in town. He has destroyed people, told countless lies, hurt entire communities through his lawsuits, lines his pockets and the pockets of his friends, and used the good intentions of the faith based community.

    • Vic says

      June 11, 2017 at 1:24 pm

      ^done, not fond.

    God will judge Christian h Rex accordingly as he builds his false idol to bring in greedy money. I pray that god will not have wrath over the whole city. It is a good thing for a Buddhist temple to be built by a Buddhist in Lancaster, that is religion. When the professed Christian mayor builds it to bring in tourist and money it is an abomination and I am very afraid that god will send the big earthquake here where sin is so openly displayed. I pray to god to have mercy on the citizens of Lancaster that are not involved in this greedy abomination. I love Buddhist people and welcome them to build their own temple but not under Rex’s guises

    I don’t know if you people have been stuck up here too long, but none of the stores anywhere in Palmdale or that joke of a mall carry the same things as the stores in the Valley do. It’s just junk up here. No selection and if they do have anything decent they only have one. I can not for the life of me understand why there are so many hotels up here. There is nothing to do up here. Except fry.

    • William says

      June 9, 2017 at 12:53 am

      Well, sandra. Unlike you, I asked someone the other day who would know why all the hotels. Visitors come for Edwards and aerospace conferences and there are many young person’s sports events.

      So, where does sandra shop, Beverly Hills?

      For some reason, your post doesn’t suggest that you have any class at all. So, why the kvetching?

    • EB says

      June 9, 2017 at 8:37 am

      Allow someone who understands why there are so many hotels up here to lift your ignorance: there is a staggering amount of aerospace related work going on in the greater AV area at all times of the year. The hotels are routinely filled with the traveling employees of Northrop/Boeing/Lockheed/General Atomics/NASA, etc, that are performing test, integration and engineering efforts on cutting edge aerospace products.

      But please, remain focused on what’s in the mall instead.

    • Rego says

      June 10, 2017 at 11:33 pm

      Sandra let’s go to the beach
      We can get the F outta here
      What do you say ?

    I worked at the Lancaster customer contact center for almost seven years before they left California. I can’t make it to the event, because I have an appointment. I would love to interview with the hotel. I have experience with the points system, and many aspects on the reservation side along with great customer service skills.

    Please contact me, and I will send my resume.

    Best regards,

    Robin Breiding

      Seriously??? …How are they supposed to contact you???

      Have someone that owes you a favor take your resume over there, or just apply through the corporate website.

      Geeze!

      • Robin says

        June 9, 2017 at 4:51 pm

        Thanks for your helpful comment.

      June 8, 2017 at 9:50 pm

      Robin…no disrespect intended, but “please contact me and I will send a resume” is not something I ever saw from someone I seriously believed wanted me to hire them. There’s a contact number, and an e-mail address in the article. I suggest that maybe YOU should contact THEM.

      • Laughing says

        June 9, 2017 at 7:54 am

        I worked with Robin, she is a sought after resource… no really…

      • Robin says

        June 9, 2017 at 4:50 pm

        I tried the email and it did not work

    Wow. Element Hotels, the ‘eco-friendly’ division of Westin Hotels, is pretty high end. Score for Palmdale.

    • Lost says

      We’re still waiting for that boutique hotel Rex promised us on the BLVD. Looks like it is being used as a gym or something.

      At least we’re getting a 10 story high Buddha statue in Lancaster. We got that going for us.

      • Tim Scott says

        June 8, 2017 at 5:50 pm

        Well, eventually Palmdale will be completely built out, and maybe someone really desperate will be building in Lancaster.

        • Shane Falco says

          June 8, 2017 at 11:18 pm

          Why yes Tim, it’s about time palmdale had better than that drug and prostitute infested Sleazy 8, motel 6 and ramada inn. Those palmdale boulevard hotels have been the hotbed of many OD, assault, battery, rape and burglary calls.

          Maybe you can keep the cockroaches at bay by letting them have their areas and putting in another high end Starwood property.

          • Tim Scott says

            June 11, 2017 at 3:16 pm

            Maybe if you weren’t so committed to whining away for “the good old days” you’d know that there are a whole lot of hotels in Palmdale outside of the decades old ‘hotel district’ at Palmdale Blvd and the freeway.

            Of course growing up out in the three point sticks you wouldn’t know what it was like in town even back then.

            Foolco those pale in comparison to the drug infested brothels along Sierra Highway in Lancaster. Now that the craphole Mahli’s is closed in Palmdale, Sierra Highway has the market cornered on crack and hookers.

      • William says

        Does anyone know if that Walmart is sill going in across from Quartz Hill High School? I drove by a while back and the signs were gone. Heck, it might already have been built?

        The only thing Palmdale-adjacent has going for it, as far as new businesses, is lower property values than Palmdale. Is ‘dirtcheap’ 1 word?

        What upscale/high end businesses are there in wreck’s fiefdom? Even Foster Freeze on K couldn’t make it.

        • Matt K. says

          June 8, 2017 at 9:34 pm

          Actually, the Fosters Freeze on Avenue K was doing fine. I know the franchisee who was running it. He also own the one in Rosamond and several local coffee establishments.

          The owner of the building wouldn’t renew his lease (the wanted Title Loan in there due to proximity to the auto mall) so he had no choice, but he is currently looking for another spot with high traffic in Lancaster.

          The area immediately adjacent to this building is actually being graded and redeveloped and will have a TGI Fridays, a Dunkin Donuts and a Habit Burger if I remember correctly?

          Marv said it would begin in June.

          Marv says lots of things, though. Occasionally, he says something that is true.

          His claims of a six mile high plume of pollution coming from a natural gas power plant that would travel to the Lancaster soccer fields and kill minority children was not one of his true statements.

          Neither was his claim that a power plant would kill jobs at Plant 42.

          When he said the reason why crime was rising in Lancaster was because it was a college town, he was also not telling the truth.

          Then, when he claimed that 67 people a day were being sent to Lancaster on the Metrolink from Los Angeles, he was not correct.

          Marv is lot like Rex.
