So what's your day job?
Sunday, August 3, 2003 by Hus | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
I am the warehouse manager for a very large manufacturer and distributor of 'Adult Entertainment Products'. Shhh...don't flame. I know it's immoral.
It pays pretty good and that type of environment doesn't bother me. All my friends are jelous, and the company trips to Atlantic City and Vegas are a lot of fun.
So what do you guys do?

Dawn - that sounds like a really rewarding line of work. 
c242 - I keep hearing the same story, are there any companies that are healthy? So many jobs have evaporated, where does it end?
I'm a terrible card player... I rely on "luck".

exactly... I think there's a plaque in the east tower at the Riviera that says "these new elevators were provided by a generous contribution from DavidK"
BoXXi would have no problem with me being in his casino... here, have another 'free' drink!

Boxxi: I like to gamble (mostly Vegas)...that is probably why I have my current day-job.

Maybe I can even finally manage to do some graphical work on a new website also...

Nevertheless I was quite impressed. We spent the night at the 'Luxor'.

Just wanted to clarify that my day-job is somewhat related to gambling...not that I have it to pay for the gambling!
c242: The Luxor is nice, but I have better luck at the smaller places just outside of town. Trivia: did you know someone jumped from a balcony (20th floor?) of the Luxor...she hit the marble floor right in front of the registration counter.
For anyone not familiar with the Luxor, it's the pyramid shaped hotel/casino where all the corridors and balconies are facing the interior.Reply #72 Tuesday, August 5, 2003 12:43 AM
The locals believe the Luxor is cursed. I didn't know a woman jumped from the 20th floor but several people died building it. When it first opened a friend and I went there to meet someone and left after a few minutes (and winning $300 on the roulette table) because it felt evil. We both had the same feeling and just headed for the door to get out of there. Later that night a friend of mine that worked for Steve Win told me about the curse.
They have the "world's most powerful laser" shooting straight up from the top and were made to turn it off when planes come in to McKarren airport because it blinds the pilots.

Styl: Card counters are no longer a problem as the cards are now dealt from shuffling machines, and at the end of every hand they are put back in the machine which constantly shuffles the 4 or 6 decks.
Having said that, card counters were never really a problem as they are quite easy to spot and once you spot them, you just cut 3 decks off the pack of 4 before putting them in the shoe. Therefore, you are only ever playing with approx 50 cards before you reshuffle again. End of card counter.
