I' m a dealer. Been one for about 8 years.
Casino, that is!
How does it pay? What are your bennies like?
It pays well. The place that I work at is very hard to get into, because we keep our own tips (as opposed to casinos where they pool all the dealers tips together and get a paycheck after two weeks). Basically, I bring home about $250 to $300 a day. Of course it could be more or less, but that' s about my average, I' d say.
The benefits? Standard issue sh*t. Health coverage through Aetna. Basic life and disability.
I' d say the best things about my job are:
1. It' s good money. Paid every day.
2. It' s easy work.
3. I NEVER work over 8 hours.
4. Hot chicks! Both working with, and playing with.
Bad things:
1. I work every weekend, and every holiday. (I work days, though, so it' s not THAT BAD.
2. Smoke filled environment.
3. Assholes.
I think the good outweighs the bad, personally, hence the 8 years!
