I work at a Casino called the "Grand Casino".I hate my fuckin job. Thursday I worked 18 hours straight and got off at 5:53am friday morning and had to come back at 1:00pm that same friday(yes i did), the the bastards had the nerve to call my fuckin house sayin "Can you come in early", WTF!?!?!?! The bastards didn't call any of my other coworkers cuz they take advantage of me cuz i'm nicer and i'm the youngest guy. I told the bastards heck no I ain't coming in. They made the damn secretary call my house(one of the few people who we respect in that whole place) cuz they make other people do their dirty work. Friday I worked from 1:00pm until 12:00am.

Saturday was the fuckin killer. I got to work saturday at 1:59pm and got off at 8:00am this morning Sunday morning!!! Yes, i fuckin worked 20 something fuckin hours!!! With no break!!! no fuckin break!!

I fuckin hate my job, i swear if my boss says anything crazy to me or asks me to come in for work today i'm gonna cuss his fuckin ass out and quit. They work the shit outta me and treat us like shit. They don't wanna hire anymore people yet they wanna give us work for 10 guys with only 4 guys on the squad at a time.

Oh and just in case you wanna know what kind of work i do, i set up banquets in the Casino Ballrooms. The work i do is no sissy work. I have to set tables and chairs for hundreds of people at a time, Set Stages for Bands, Set up Class rooms ranging from 20 - 200 people, Section off a huge heavy ass ballroom with Air Walls 30-40 feet high.

Its physically stressfull and mentally stressfull. I have to deal with bosses who think i'm a robot who can work forever, other workers in the casino who take advantage of you and snobby rich people who feel you are less than dirt cuz you work a manual labor job.

I do all of this for $6.50 + gratuity.

Kids make sure you go to college and don't end up doing this shit for the rest of your life. Thank God i'm goin in the military soon.

EDIT: I said "huge heavy ass ballrom", i meant to say "huge ass ballrom with heavy ass Air Walls 30-40 feet high".

Interesting, sounds like the software industry at crunch time before shipping. You know I worked atleast 12 hour days for two months straight without a single day off... That pissed me off. Of course I get paid a little better, but still, no weekends and no breaks for two months about did me in... but then there are lull periods when we don't do anything for months... and take 4 hour days. Oh well... Work sucks everywhere, just remember that! :) I know that doesn't make you feel any better, but we all have it bad,

Yeah, it does. What makes it more horrific is that Casinos aren't known for losing money and you much get heartily sick of whatching people pouring away their money. I hope you get fat tips.

Actually my section of the casino is losing money cuz they dont make enough money, due to bad management and not enough workers. When i see people spending all that money on slot machines it doesn't make me sick at all. Actually the casino's bring up the economy in our area. My brother just got a new school built cuz of money from various casinos in the city i live in.

What makes me sick is watching people slave drive workers as if its the fuckin 1800's.

I know that feeling all to well, my last job was a real pain in the ass. Poor hours, lazy ass co-workers, inconsiderate prick of a boss and his wife who acted like she owned the place.

One day I had enough and just quit.

Some jobs are just not worth it, luckily I found a new job that I love and pays very well.

Grab a newspaper and check the job listings, you're bound to find something better.

for 6.50??!!! Geez, I make more than you, and my job is not nearly as stressfull. Sure, it has its moments, but i work the morning shift, so it is pretty quiet because everyone is at work, or school. I do get the dumbest customers, but they are more of a laugh riot than a pain in the ass.

I chose not to attend college (I graduated last year) because frankly, I am tired of school. Military is something to look in to. But, it is not easy, trust me. I was shipped off to a Military Academy for my Junior year. Talk about stress. But I layed low, and had no problems. But having to jump out of bed at 6 in the morning to the voices of screaming tac officers (ex marines) Is a feeling I can't describe. But I got used to it, it was interesting to see weak minded teens have mental break downs.

Um, how can they make you not take a break? Just walk out of the store at about the five hour mark and don't come back for a half an hour. They can't do anything. You're legally allowed to take a break. And 6.50 an hour isn't worth the shit you're doing. Quit, and get something better.

yes i'm gonna quit soon(and cuss out all of my bosses too) but its hard to find a good job around here at the moment. Also the Gratuity in my check is going to be high so my paycheck will be huge. Yes the $6.50 an hour isn't worth it but the gratuity and overtime can make your checks much bigger than what they already are. But i still fuckin hate my job and I instantly leave if they talk to me crazy in any kind of way.

Its a damn shame what people will do to feed their videogame addiciton. I need serious help.
