Got a job (Finally)
 

Well, my job search has finally ended. I accepted a position today in Fresno, as a Table Games Shift Manager. It has been nice not having to work, but I have been very bored, and am glad to get back in the game.

I have to go through a lengthy licensing and background check. It looks like I will start working end of August, or beginning of September.

Any Poggers who are in the Fresno area, or will be passing through the Fresno area, come on in. I will buy you dinner.

The Casino is called Table Mountain. Currently 41 tables and 9 poker tables, plus 2000 slot machines. They are probably going to do an expansion before too long. The place has a ton of potential.

I met most of the members of the management team, and they all seem like very nice people, with a good management philosophy. It was a breath of fresh air compared to my last position. I immediately felt comfortable when I got there. I was offerred the job within the first 5 minutes of the interview and I accepted. We discussed salary for about 30 seconds, and then that was solved also.

So, now to sell the house, buy a new house, move, and all the other fun stuff that goes along with it.

Anyone want to buy a house in Sacramento? I will give a POG discount.

Thanks to everyone for the moral support these last few months. POG has been my escape and I love you all, even Dustin.

Congratulations!

I assume you have prior casino experience? On that note, there is probably no chance a casino will hire me to be tournament director without being a freakin dealer first, huh? Like even if I prove to them I'm already way better than 95% of their dealers on my own (I used to deal/run charity tournaments on the side for a while until they stopped letting us award cash)?

Re: Got a job (Finally)
 

Congrats. Welcome back to the working world.

Re: Got a job (Finally)

AWESOME

how were the limit games 2 days ago? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Got a job (Finally)
 

Way to go!

"Table Mountain" is a pretty lame name for a casino though... Your first order of business should be to get it changed to something like "The Commish's House of Earthly Delights: A multisensory phenomenon". All the hip young gamblers could refer to it as "The House". I think it'd really take off then. Good luck!

Re: Got a job (Finally)
 

Well congratulations!

Not having to move a couple thousand miles must be nice.

I have 22 years experience in the casino industry. There is a chance to start as a tournament director. What area of the country are you in?
