i went through a course, i think it took 3 weeks?

i worked a bit over a year, and i quit.

i got tired of players blaming me for their gambling problems, and not giving them the card they want! haha

also i got tired of doing the calculations

Was a dealer for close to 3 years. I must say you would eventually get bored or pissed off at the casino environment. Its all routine work by dealing the same game, seeing the same players, same conversation, etc. It takes a certain type of personality to last a long time.

I worked at the bar at a casino and they have set schedules you get to pick a work schedule that dosn't chang for a year but it goes by seniority but you can make realy good money. You just have to make sure you don't over serv your customers, a friend of mine just got suspended for three days for over sreving David Hasselhoff.
