Hate to say it, but...

There is an old adage- "Don't drink from the cup that you peed into."

You have pissed away your chance to get hired from there. Time to apply elsewhere & learn from the mistakes made.

Good luck.

Under the circumstances and adding facts according to psandman, i don't think there was really whole lot else you COULD do wrong if you wanted a job there.

I didn't add facts, he said it in his post\.

I did see where he said [ QUOTE ]
I would comment on the effect of rake + jackpot + toke in a $2/4.

[/ QUOTE ]
I just (mis)took what you said [ QUOTE ]
well aside from complaining about the rake, you kept suggesting to people not to tip the dealers.

[/ QUOTE ]as first hand experience the way i read it.

Didn't mean to mis-represent what you said.

To the OP:
Just curious, have you dealt before?

All this pettiness probably has something to do with the fact that I'm extremely broke from not being able to find work, was playing with money I shouldn't have been playing with, and am probably overall unhappy about the position in life I'm in.

I'm probably not gonna be too popular here saying this, but isn't Vegas like the easiest place in the world to find a job....and aren't a great deal of those jobs better paying than dealing cards? And anyway, isn't poker dealing like one of the most competetive job openings there is, only to get much worse in the next few years?

I mean really, if like sucks so bad that its a strain to play $2-4 LHE, shouldn't you do anything it takes to make money....two jobs or whatever?

I applied for a job as a waiter at this restaurant. I decided to eat there several times a week to show them what a stand up guy I was. While there I complained about the food and the service. I told the other customers they watered down the drinks, charged too much, padded the bill and that the restaurant down the road was much better overall.

Oh, I've been out of work for a while now and probably shouldn't have been eating out and putting it all on my credit card. I'm still waiting to hear back from them. Hope the call me soon.

this thread needs a rickroll to add to the leveling factor

No he said he was pointing out to the players how much came off the table in rake AND TOKES.

You are mistaken.

There are more minimum wage jobs per capita in this city than any other that I'm aware of. Yes, there are tips involved, and none of that is a guarantee. Btw, the joint I work at had 2 extra board jobs open, we had over 1000 applications, and about 100 auditions. Those dealers get 1-3 days a week depending on how often they're called in to deal. It's not the mecca of dealing jobs everyone thinks there is. The farthest applications actually came from a few Asian countries and England/Sweeden. Most from the US and from most states as well.
