On night he got a little drunk, we had a beef because the shooter had a dice go off the table, he didn't want the same dice so we gave him 2 new, he shot both of these off. Again he didn't want the same; we hadn't even got the first dice back yet so we gave him the last 2, next roll "seven out". The drunk guy goes NUTS, starts in on the dealers," you F---ing thieves". I get out of my chair and start in at him for giving the dealers BS, he starts at me shouting about my mother and how many partners she has in a night, my dad and animals, as well as insisting the dealers were stealing, and it was just unbelievable. Im sure you can imagine I was about done to throw my badge in and say to hell with it hes got it coming, the Manager walks up behind me very calmly puts his hand on my shoulder and pushes me to sit down and says to the guy what my employees and there families get up to on there own time is none of your business, if I ever here you call anybody that works here a thief again, I will personally make sure you have no action in this state the guy looks at him and says with pure venom THIEF. The Manager very slightly nods, the guy disappears back and down on to the floor with security all over him, I hadnt noticed the guys move in, it was a very busy table (and I was a little steemed). Any way, one of my peevs is dealers, suits, customers, anybody that is abusive, these azzholes that they can do this and get away with it, the suits that let them get away with it pizz me off even more.

I believe that they are, or are connected to the mob here. These guys will get you fired if they dont like you. They will turn you in to the director of table games, then you are done. If they have a beef or a claim, they ALWAYS get paid off because the box/floors are scared to lose their jobs. The upper management tells the floors to "put up with them becuase the spend alot of money here". Now I undertand that you cater to the high rollers, but its ridiculous how much power they have. If you set up $170 inside, no 9...and a 9 rolls, one of them will say, by the way, that 5 was suppose to be a 9....CHA-CHING!! the 5 gets moved over, and they get paid.....no questions asked. Its not an inside job type of deal, because its ALL boxes and floors that give them this treatment. Oh well, its not my money, its on the box and the floor's ass, not mine.... Get a fvcking roll!

You pay everyone you're told to pay. That you've to pay someone, however, oftentimes goes without saying. Then you go home. Why assume unnecessary responsibility and stress?

Players who bitch about not having 10,20,100x odds like the old days yet still only bet single or double odds. 2. Fleas who bet the props EVERY @#%$ roll. At our place we have the hop bets printed on the layout, and this was a first but we had a young brother come up one night, throws me $14 and says he wants all those numbers. Wants to keep everything up of course, after two $2 scores he hits the big hardway for $17 before sevening-out. Jackass. 3. When the stick plays with the dice excessively--drives me nuts. If the dice roll on a 7 or crap, give one of the dice a quarter turn then send them as is, don't be flipping them like coins! 4. Strokers who make 3-color bets on every number, play come bets too and don't want to come down with odds. 5. Strokers who throw you money and give you a laundry list of bets they want. 6. People who want to press their place bets after you've already handed them the payoff. 7. Jerks who either stiff you or occasionally make a dollar hardway or yo bet for you, then bust your balls about not smiling or talking enough. 8. Hawaiians who go on monster rolls, bleed the table and don't give you a cent, and the rest of the players follow suit. 9. Players who wait for you to send them the dice, then start making prop bets once the dice are out.

Don't book anything or just say bet Retreiving the dice with the wrong hand. Instructors that don't instruct. "Dice dealers" that don't care about the game and don't care to learn anything.

Don't wait for me to set up a $12 six or pay out my last $14-same-bet, especially if the shooter is on my end. Send the dice. I'm a big boy. I can handle it. And if the dice are landing on my side, don't ask "Are you ready?" You should know. It's your end to watch. Move the dice. Don't sit there crossfiring or playing with the dice while a table full of people are anxious to get a roll. Crossfiring in general is just rude. The guy with $300 worth of action on the table doesn't care about your new lawnmower or your fantasy football team.

Someone who bets everything they got on the 8 (some odd number like 419) and then when you pay them ask is that right? A player who doesn't tip all night and then puts their last $49 in the field before they leave Someone who wants same dice all the time and throw them off the table every other roll. Dealers who don't talk at all, to anyone. Just lumps who aren't humble. Think they know everything. Shut up and try to learn something. Break ins trying out new press moves on a live game Lumps who make excuses for every mistake, oh I knew that, i just messed it up, no you didn't know, it's ok just don't do it again. Stickpeople who think they are working at a carnival Players you have to tell something 100 times in one night (big chips on the bottom...etc) Any shot takers Players who tell you where to set them up in the box (i think you should put me on the top from where i'm standing) uh huh. Rich people who think you are an idiot because you work for a paycheck (saying things like this one is off and on dealer, or 270 accross, that's 50 on each number 60 each six and eight...uggh) Women who stand around looking cute trying to get a guy to put them on the pass line to shoot. Any dufus who says "that's what i'm talking about"

The hot female box that thinks that she is "the shit" because she got promoted......and we ALL know its not because of her dealing skills OR her knowledge of the game...because we can deal circles around her. The relief box sits down to a nice smooth jammed up game, and acts like he has to take total control of the game by barking out orders...."relax man, we have had no problems with the action for the last 3 hours..."

Players that don't know what they're doing and when I actually try to be nice and help, they accuse me of trying to play their money. Quote of the day, I look at my floor and say, "12 plays the corner red". Retard. This fucker was so wasted, that I had to tell him that it was a $10 game for 5 hours. He bet every roll. Every fucking roll! Then, he had the nerve to ask me why I was getting short with him the third time he tried to give me $2 for a placed 8. I am very polite to every player till they give me ample reason to not be. That said, I gently inform a player to give me $2 more for his place bet and explain that every $6 pays $7 and he screams, "okay, okay! Stop yelling at me!" What? Dorky, unoriginal dice dealer jokes that break-ins have just learned and think are very clever. I've been dealing for a while, I notice that the bowl is upside down. Very funny. "The yellow line..." You're less of a comedian and more of an archaeologist. Come up with some new material. I'm a woman, yes the 12 is the second biggest pair on the table. Definitely not their balls. Busting me for handing the player next to stick their shit with my inside hand when I've watched you take cheques from hand to hand all night and haven't said a word. Want to play the "procedure" game? I'll make you fucking cry. Break-ins that spend more time learning chip tricks than the game. Wow, you can hit a chip on it's side and it rolls away from you and then right back... What's a $16 horn pay on the high side? Get back to me on that. Players that put every single bet on a string. They haven't noticed that I won't even move till all their money's in the come. I'm only falling for that shit once. Boxmen that can't keep their fucking hands out of my layout. I'm pretty fast, it's $54 across (not accrost), I'm gonna get there. I put my hard-ways where I want them. Don't move them 1/4 inch up or down, I'll just move them right back. Never put your hands in a girl's box without being asked, not polite. Prop-aholics. My house has craps no more, why do you have to bet a $3 yo every roll? The guy next to stick who taps on the table and says, "that's my hard 6. That's mine. I had a hard 6. You gonna pay me for my hard 6? He got paid for his hard 6. Why aren't you gonna pay me for my hard 6?" To which I reply, "yes. Yes it is. We have to pay in order and the nervous ones are last." I'm wearing a gaming badge and a property badge on my shirt, both of which have my name clearly labeled. It does not say "Sweetie", "Baby Girl", "Honey", "Sweet Heart" or any variation there in. Throw your shit to the stick man! He's the one that pays it! He needs to know what you have! Here's a scene... $5 comes flying in to stick, "give me a horn". "$1 goes." He gets it, looks at it, throws it to stick, "give me a yo." Nice... "It's not like this in Vegas." Well, good for you! I don't know if it was the big fucking river outside or the lack of a desert that gave away your whereabouts, but this isn't Vegas. I need to go back to school. I think I'll be a coroner, it'll be refreshing after dealing for the past 5 years.

It rolls. You have a full table of place bets to pay and they're first. They say, "Yeah, same bet, and you owe me for my hard six." Calm the fuck down! You'll get it. Those dealers who will hold $7 in the air and repeat "Same bet?" EVERY SINGLE ROLL and won't hand off the money until the player says same bet. Player has like $90 in red and $20 in aces stacked in the field. Field roll, you go to break it down to and they say "Hey! Color for color! What the fuck are you doing?!" Jesus, take it easy! When you make stupid mistakes. Last night I thought the point was 10. This Japanese guy who speaks very little English throws down 17 and says "Inside." I'm like, "You need 1 more nickel." He doesn't understand. Dice in the air. I yell, "No bet." Roll is a 5. I look down, the point is 9. Whoops. Box, I owe this gentleman $7. Yeah, I no bet him. Right, I shouldn't have. Dealers who don't know how to press a place bet w/o a move. 1 from base has a $12 6 and it hits, they've got the $14 in the corner of the come (by the dc box). Player says press one unit. They'll do take-one-leave-one across practically the whole table because they don't know how to just hand off $8 and press it up.
