There used to be a time when people who didn’t like their jobs (and, let’s face it, who does like their job?) could only vent to co-workers and their friends and family outside the job. The former usually agreed and added their own gripes, while the latter were politely bored to death by hearing long, drawn out stories about people they didn’t know doing things in places they’d never been to.
But now, thanks to the magic of the Internets, you can share your complaints about management, working conditions, and even cafeteria food with millions of people you’ve never met. CasinoDealers.net is a great place for this, but why stop there? Why not start your own myspace page for your unfun casino workplace? Here’s an excerpt:
WORKPLACE SAFETY: At skyshitty we DO have a great health care plan… unfortunately for you if you hurt yourself or are feeling sick but it is nothing TOO serious then Skyshitty will keep you working. Workplace safety is a big concern with previous Employees being Cut, burnt and even Electrocuted by Faulty machines that were not earth leakage protected.
MEALS: At skyshitty we provide 3 meals per shift. Sure the food may be compared to poison or waste material… and sure after eating the chicken or fish MANY employees mysteriously get stomach aces and other problems… we think this is purely for the fact that the employees are just not use to the FINE quality food that we provide.

Sounds like a pretty dangerous place to work. That’s some Chucky stuff going on with those slot machines.
But the food–THREE meals a shift? I always thought you were entitled to one hot meal per. Speaking from experience, gastro-intestinal disturbances can be an occupational hazard when you’re eating in casino cafeterias.
The kicker, no pun intended, has to be stomach aces. Is that like pocket aces but better? Or pocket aces but worse–a hand that gets beat out by someone nailing a flush or full house? Please, please let this become the latest poker slang.
Stomach aces.
