Many dealers just don't get this, or they wouldn't fart around when in the box. This includes not paying attention, dealing slowly, arguing with players, fumbling with change, pulling bets in strangley (or not at all), and talking. Many say they are efficient, but are full of it. Granted, the dealers around me are some of the best, for the most part, but there is always room for improvement. Still, in a place like a casino, it seems obvious to me that they would want to hustle for as much money possible, just like everyone else does. I also think that pooling tips hurts this efficiency.

As for the dealers you work with (probably in Colorado by your elevation location), I did experience good dealers up there, and they seem to get tipped very well. This was five years ago up in Blackhawk.
