Default Re: altercation w/ dealer and floor at Bellagio

I even started the conversation with "I want you to know I wasn't trying to be an a--hole". As I explained the situation to him and got no slack what so ever...

I guess it's up to me to point out to you that not everyone has the same tolerance for profanity that you do.

So far, every sentence you've said aloud in this situation starts with you swearing. In the initial dispute, you quickly drop a WTF on the dealer. Your opening line in the private conversation started with the word a-hole.

If you want to get respect, give respect. Don't swear at everyone in sight, then ask, "Why isn't anyone nice to me?"

Note that it doesn't matter how polite you think you were being. The tone of your voice is subtle; the profanity is loud and clear.

I don't suppose that out of you, the dealer, the floorman, and the floorman's boss, that you were the youngest by far? That's not a knock on young people. But I think if that's the case, it played a big part in their attitudes.
