Work was good and bad today. First off, I just want to say that I am thankful for any amount of tips I make, big or small. But today was so UGH!
Okay, well I am home early because I signed the early out sheet. Bad move, because I was put in the High limit room today! None of us new part-time dealers are ever allowed in there. It's kinda like a reward, they even said that they are putting more "eligible" dealers in there during our briefing, and I am proud of myself because I am the first out of all the new people to ever go in there on a busy night. That means they think I am a strong dealer, so that's a good thing. When I looked at the paper that tells us where we are I freaked out and my manager even said " don't freak out, that's correct, you're in the high limit room."
Well, The bad part of it was that I was killing in there. I got a man down $8000 and every hand was just a loss. And then the other girl dealer would come and she would pay them out like crazy. She probably made about a thousand in tips today because of that. Me, well I made only about $230. I didn't make it until later on in the shift. I was killing like crazy!! Just when things were getting better they sent me home because I had signed the early out sheet. Dammit, I didn't even know I was going to be in the high limit room!!! I am still glad that I made that much money, I mean it is hard to make even $80 on a busy day because everyone has been so tight lately, But I mean, it could have been so much more if I weren't sent home early!!
I just feel proud that I was chosen out of the newer people to be put in the high limit room. In the high limit room, they deal with bigger money, People bet $1000 hands and I am proud that they can trust me to be in there with that kind of action.
Well, I hope that I get another chance to go in there again. Like this Saturday for instance, or maybe even tonight! But sheesh, that teaches me a lesson to tough a day out and not sign the early out sheet anymore, because you never know what opportunity is there to make money!
I am glad for what I made today, That gives me a big push in tips, usually I have to work hard to make $200 in the regular tables, so I'm all good, but it could have been so much more!! I'm getting greedy. I should just get some sleep.

So once you sign that out sheet, you can't change your mind? That sucks! Hope you'll be back in that high limit room soon.
Yes, once you sign that darn sheet you are locked in to go home as soon as there is a chance. I hope I'll be back in there too, it really helps to be in there! Thanks!
