another 'put pro gambler on resume' thread

[136913691369]

I know normally it is frowned upon by most 2p2ers to put pro gambler on a resume, but I think my case is different because I am applying for work at a casino. To be more specific, it is a racino with only slot machines in it (no poker or table games of any kind). Not exactly sure what I want to do there yet, but I need to get some kind of job soon. Being a pro in today's gambling climate ain't too easy anymore.

I'm 22 years old and I've been a professional gambler for about 2 years. I didn't file taxes for 2005, but I did for 2006 as a pro gambler. During these two years as a pro I had no other job, but I was in school for all of 2005 and most of 2006.

Last time I had a 'real' job was September 2004, so it's either leave about a three year gap in work experience or put that I was a pro gambler for a couple years while being in school.

What do you guys think? I was thinking being a pro would help me stand out and maybe could actually help me directly because I can relate more to customers.
