Duke grad going to deal in vegas?

I wouldn't say it's constant abuse but you don't just get all the respect in the world either.

A cousin of mine was a trainer with a mster degree at a resort in South Beach. She said once she had to fill in at the pool handing out towels. She said she made over 300 that day....more than her trainer job.

I'd say if you're in a position to do whatever you wanted go for it. I would also suggest two other things. 1) Don't allow yourself to get in a pickle where you're strapped financially. Nothing like being in a job you hate and can't leave. and 2) Think of something bigger than dealing poker. Whether it's playing poker or running a casino. Ask the floor what it takes to get their job. Then once you become a floor person ask that boss what it takes to have their job. Also learn other aspects of a casino. You never know, you might be running a casino one day. Just remember to rip up my markers if you do.
