Re: RANT on Vegas dealers and the compnies the work for
One poker room i worked in actually drove out almost every dealer with any experience, because management basically wanted young friendly smiling people who they could worry about teaching dealing to later. Walk into that room now and believe they have proably no more than 4 dealers who had more than 6 months experience dealing poker before they were hired and those four were probably friends of the manager (in all fairness this is an estimate and the numbers may be slightly off). That room also has a shift manager who was hired at age 21 with no poker or casino experience.
BTW I'm not saying all those dealers are bad, just that the corporate priority is not on having good staff.
