    Any advice for people under 30?

    I'm 40. I wish I would have partied less, ate better, and exercised more frequently. Shedding weight is way harder after 30 than it is before that. It's easy not to do it, too, because life is busier.

    Are you working part-time or full-time job?

    I work full-time as a casino surveillance investigator. I work "part-time" doing my side gigs. Most of them are blogging, guided hiking services, and freelance writing.

    What's the hardest job you ever did?

    Coal mining. It's hard labor. A lot of shoveling. You breath in coal dust all shift long. It's loud. It's extremely dangerous. I did it for 3 years in my early 20s. I don't miss that job at all!

    Have you ever been drunk in your life?

    Many many many times. I used to get drunk every night in my 20s. I started taking better care of myself in my 30s and slowly started drinking less and less. I'm 40 today and am happy to say that I haven't drunk any alcohol in quite a few months. I don't miss it. I haven't been drunk in years...

    Have you ever been taken advantage of at your job?

    Yep. The last job I worked at, after 13 years, I put in my 2 weeks notice and quit without a job waiting for me. It was because of they leadership taking advantage of me. They knew what they were doing, too. I was dedicated and they have never been able to replace that dedication. It's hurting...

    Have you ever been verbally abused?

    Many times. I definitely grew up as a kid with verbal abuse and physical discipline that would definitely be considered abuse by today's standards. It really didn't mess me up but it did make me very independent. As an adult, I've been verbally abused many times during my career in security...

    Witnessing a cheat

    We usually detect around cheating about once a month or something like that. We're a smaller casino, though. We're definitely not Vegas-big even though we belong to a parent company that has a lot of houses in Vegas.

    Should dealers be allowed to play at casinos when off work?

    I always hate that. The dealer can't control the game. I suppose unless they cut the deck in half if they suspect a card counter in something like Blackjack or something like that.

    Casino Food

    That's really not that bad. It's like a nicer place to eat around here.

    Responsible Gambling

    And once you do responsible gaming on yourself, it's the state's responsibility to make it stick.

    Have you considered quitting your job to play poker full time?

    I think it also required you to be a professional poker player with sponsors and multiple income streams!

    Witnessing a cheat

    Definitely a good idea to look around and make sure, though. If there is a cheat, he or she could be hurting your chances of winning, too!

    Casino Food

    How expensive was the Gorden Ramsey burger? I know our places are pretty high so I imagine most casinos are.

    Howdy folks

    Thank you for the welcome :) I do try to post something worthy. I hate to post just a few words or something like that.

    Responsible Gambling

    That's a good thing. We get daily players. Some are addicts and eventually have to be helped. Most know when to stop, are retired, and mainly there for the social aspects of it but still usually win quite a bit.

    Do you play slots when you go to the casino?

    It does. It often doesn't happen until you put quite a bit of money in as well. I think you have more luck playing poker and carnival games.

    How often are you in a casino?

    Being an employee of a casino, I'm not sure if I'd want to be a patron in one for that long. Maybe once or twice a quarter or something like that would be okay :)

    Should dealers be allowed to play at casinos when off work?

    Yeah and online poker has really evolved over the years. I remember some years back when it kind of just got out there. It wasn't the best. I think it's pretty much gamification now!
