I made sure i started on stick. days always seem faster and 20 min shorter that way :)
I had no problems, just regular play.
Well on my last break, some 7-star hootie-hoo player came to play and raped the casino.
was was playing black and not just one or 2, we had to order black fills 2x! $10,000 each time, well he bought in for $1,000 and left with almost $16,000 and tipped less than 1% (about $130.00). Lucky for me he didn't play on my side, I just don't need the stress of that kind of action! i liked my 10.00 bettors very much yesterday! MY poor co-workers who had that side of the table tho worked their asses off, not only did they have HIM but they had a full side.

Weight Loss Challenge
my shift and coworkers are involved in a weight loss challenge. Every participant enters with 20 dollars. who ever looses the highest percentage based on their starting weight, wins the pot! I should be trying harder. Maybe i will crash diet for the last couple of weeks with Dr. Adkins LOL... I have lost a couple pounds since the weigh in, so i am not doing too bad. I want the money, but i am not by far the biggest person in the challenge. Will keep you posted. It is a 6 week challenge. 1 week is over, 5 to go! oh i think the pot is at 340.00! even the skinnies are participating!

I am so SICK of this
If i never hear another word about the situation, it will be too soon!
over the last 2 months, there has been a diamond or platinum total rewards card holder playing at the shit hole i work in. At 1st I took his as an average black guy with ghetto game etiquette. I placed nice to him because we are supposed to kiss the card holders' asses who are anything above gold-status. He tried making late bets and scamming dealers. He has offered me pay off if i help him cheat, he has mentioned another dealer as a helper in the same way. He has hit on me and bothered me the whole time. I have asked for extra table supervision the whole time, while getting this line from the floor-persons: "Just call no late bets" well it was not that easy or i am breaking down! i have fellow dealers who just do not communicate well [in English] or do their job sufficiently. I have had to baby sit them, baby sit this cheater, and provide excellent service to all the other players, and in the mean time i have a hand full of new/learning dealers i have to monitor and or teach! this is guy just kept taking or trying to take shots on us and all the other dealer dont say much. One day I get called down to corporate investigators who ask me if i want to wear a wire and help catch this guy, to play him and loosen him up until we get it arranged. another day i get called AFTER WORK, to the offices and i am assuming we are about to set up the sting opp. well the VP shows up with the shift manager from Days ( not even my shift), the police and a gaming investigator. I was interrogated and accused of helping the cheater. WTF is that all about- while i have complained and wrote reports and all to get rid of him, no one wants to believe me how it was. well i never got my increased table supervision until after the meeting. and find out he got 86'd from all of our properties. What ever, I am glad he is gone but it is still injustice to me and insulting to me.
Today I get called into the office to talk to a middle manager who has been couching me up to be what they are looking for in a floor supervisor so that i may advance.
he wants to hear all about it, all about the whole thing- what has been happening over the last 2 months. a few minutes into the conversation with him, another manager shows up with my direct supervisor. I am stressed and sick from going over it over and over again and hearing the same things from everyone.
plus i hear today after the meeting with the investigators i should have called the VP and discussed with him the plans the investigators had. but i had no idea what warranted calling the VP nor would i have known the VP didn't know about their plans.
The middle manager said I was not in trouble he just wanted to know more... Why the person he thought was the best dice dealer on the shift was in such a situation.
WHY? - I WILL TELL YOU WHY!
BECAUSE I AM ONLY **HUMAN**
Now it is Sunday and I am off to browse the classifieds. I miss the bartending SOOO much, now! more over I miss being a home maker- but thats too far out of reach!
If you manage a bar, I am looking to tend, again! so lets help each other out here!

Ink'd
So Friday I saw a therapist for the 1st time ever. she was nice. the hour went by fast!
She gave me an assignment as part of my recovery/self-healing process... DO SOMETHING FOR MYSELF. Her suggestions were, massage, pedicure, go to a movie.... well... I waffled over the the idea, and I had a time constraint, had to do it before I saw her again TUESDAY MORNING.
Well I had already been considering a tattoo of memorial, but not a typical angel with dates and crap... so I did some research. I love dragonflies, they have a certain mysticness (is that a word?) to them. I researched what they signify to many cultures, starting with Chinese because I thought I had seen them in a lot of Asian art design before. Well they have a nice meaning in Chinese and even in Japanese, but the right one was the Native Americans belief...verbatim of Wiki-Answers: To some Native Americans they are the souls of the dead. As sad as this may seem, it it appropriate and means a lot to me, especially in my 1/32 bloodline of Native American.
S has a pic of it on his blog post for today.

Work... I'm back...unfortunately
Went back to work Friday, as my medical leave ended. It's been rough, in many ways. i had 10 days of not-so-much on my feet, now I get leg cramps from standing after 3-4 hours. Everyone has questions, where have I been, What was wrong etc... Thats hard to tell so many people. I told a few friends while i was off to tell everyone before i got back so i could have less to say. But I guess it didn't get around so well.
Infact one of my supervisors only figured as much as I was preggo, because before my leave i was sick and he suspected it morning sickness... and when I came back he asked why i was so down. And another one was on leave for death in her family and same thing, only 1st thing she said to me was "congratulation" which was painful and i broke into tears on the casino floor and she dismissed me for a break.
I guess I have some kind of post traumatic stress issues. For as short of a time as it the loss was/is still hard.
I work with a gal who is quite preggo, maybe 2 months to go? and I have a hard time talking to her now.
One of my crafty friends had a baby on easter sunday, and I was unaware, I just went to hang out and found out she had the baby and I had a hard time at her house, but her new baby is so sweet. It was hard but I stayed and visited as long as I planned to before I knew. We cried a little bit together, I don't know if that was good or bad. She didn't know why right away because all the happenings with her and her new baby she forgot what I went through. I understand. I hope I can still handle going over there to visit. I don't want to see things fall apart because I am a mental case.
Work is hard tho- it should be helpful to keep busy and be around people, but I really don't want to be around anyone but close family.
I wish I could sue someone for this stress!

Telling the wrold
I guess I will just tell everyone... in the world...who reads this.
I am going to spare the details and crap, to spare my own heart from further aching.
The so-called illness/reason for my recent medical leave etc is...
I had a miscarriage.
ok moving on... I'd rather not talk about it or think about it too much. Please just take it for what it is.

Green Beer
Happy St Patrick's day. All of the world is drinking green beer!
There was a group of 5 girls playing craps at 8 this morning, all drinking green beer.
My box person at the time said he thought he might go get a green beer or 2 when he got off work. Then Jeff who was on stick, interjected that it make other things green. He wasn't talking about pee! and he went on and on about it LOL... So the guy on box said "well then, I think I will just go home then!"
Now they had everyone thinking about bright green poo!
