Shift Change again.

I feel like I have my life back. I am now on the 6pm-2am shift and I feel so much happier. There is equal distribution of where dealers go, and I have my whole day back in my hands. I feel so much more happier and so much more energized. I couldn't stand the 1-9pm shift at all, and old people that come to the casino every day just made me mad because they were all so bitter.

I feel like so excited to actually go to work now. I haven't felt like that in a while actually. The people on swings are more my type of people too. They aren't too much into the party thing since the hours aren't really good for it. And they have more of a dry humor on that shift, which I am drawn to more. I like dry humor. Sometimes.
That, and I get to see my friends again. Day shift was such a bad experience for me. They like me on that shift, but I really felt closed off from everyone because for one thing, I am the newest dealer on that shift working along side 10 year veterans.

I haven't seen Malaykham in two weeks. I am kind of happy about that. I was getting annoyed at how much she talks about money and how much she gossips. I don't mind hearing gossip and talking about it in small doses but she just really puts everyone's business out there. She has this bad impulsive habit of calling me out of no where at all hours of the day, followed by a text message, no, four text messages telling me to call her. I finally told her in a message saying " I don't want to talk on the phone just text me" and she finally let up. But that just made things more annoying because at least when I was missing her calls, I didn't have to know what she wanted to gossip about. Now she tells me how much money other people are making and starts asking me how much money I make. I want her to get a clue. I'm being bitchy again aren't I?

I went to Chuckchansi Casino last thursday with Charlene and our friend (to be ex-friend/acquaitance) Danielle because she wanted to gamble. Before I start my little story, here's the scoop on Danielle:
She got laid off from Circuit City because they went bankrupt so she is now getting A little over $1,000 a month for unemployment. Since she was laid off, I guess the company is awarding her free education for a certification course so she can get another job through that. SO free college basically. But to maintain the deal, she must not have a job. But She does have a job, but to keep it under the table in a way, she works 15 hours or less a week. She is currently engaged and is saving up for a place.
Okay, so we go to the casino because she wanted to gamble. Charlene and I wanted to go for the Buffet, but I ended up gambling on my own too. I lost the first sixty bucks, and then I borrowed a hundred from Danielle. I lost that too. But she was winning so much money! She won about $800 off $80. After we were done gambling, we ate at the buffet. Danielle was feeling nauseous and ended up eating like next to nothing (that's typical her too, she's crazy and is always on a diet but she's not skinny by the way) and went to the bathroom for a long time. After that we went home.
Charlene and I hung out after that and she told me the reason why Danielle was all sickly. Danielle said that she felt sick because she didn't think I would pay her back. When I first heard that I was like "BITCH!". That statement made me really mad.

At first glance, everyone seems to understand why Danielle would feel that way. She's unemployed, and I'm employed and I borrowed money. But here are ten things that made me mad:

1) She's so unemployed and broke, why the hell did she gamble?
2) She would have never won that money if we never agreed to go with her.
3) Charlene Drove us over there and she didn't even offer to pay gas.
4) She acted all happy LA LA dragging us around while she was winning while Charlene and I were all sitting there all lame-like and thirsty.
5) Out of all the money, she didn't even pay for dinner. What's ten bucks compared to what she won?
6) She was acting annoying.
7) She won $320 off $15 in one hand and only tipped the dealer $15 bucks which INFURIATES ME. That's like giving a dealer 25 cents. INSULTING.
8) She didn't eat all her food.
9) When we wanted to wait for the buffet to open she made it seem like "there's other food in Fresno you know? " when we specifically told her we wanted to try that buffet since Chuckchansi is so far away.
10) She kept saying Yay and bouncing like a baby in a high chair.

Okay, so these reasons are kind of out of context as to why I was really mad and I do not want to continue being friends with her. My overall reasoning is that she won so much money, we brought her all the way out there and she was so cheap and greedy towards Charlene and me. And out of all that, she had the nerve to feel sick just because I she was worried I wasn't going to pay her back. First off, I have a job. And I said I would pay her back. I could imagine her feeling sick if she was in the negative and I borrowed money, but she was in the F#$%ing positive.
She also made it seem like she was poor. She gets $1000 unemployment doing nothing. That's more than I make in wages. I make money through tips, but that's always unstable. And I can't afford to pay for school, while she gets free school. She was really better off. Plus her boyfriend works and probably supports her a bit too along side with her mom.

If I won all that money, I would have paid for everyone's dinner, given everyone at least a hundred each, paid for gas, and pocketed the rest. It's the casino's money you're spending anyway. It's like showing gratitude that luck came your way you know? I even take my friends out to dinner when I make a lot in tips that week for work, kind of a celebration. I can't go some where with a friend and have a good time while they aren't. I told my coworkers about the whole ordeal because I wasn't so sure whether I was in the right to feel that way, and they wanted to kick her ass.

Charlene is a friend of Danielle's from way back and she didn't even give her anything. What a friend.

Another thought, what if she lost all her money instead of won?

So I think we will be cutting off connection with her from now on. Dislike!

I've been obsessed with twitter lately. And I don't know why. It's kind of dumb, and it's basically a facebook status update like twenty times a day.

It's quite interesting though. If anyone has one follow me! My username is m__m. hah. stupid twitter.

  1. To add to this... she makes WAYYY more than me even on just a monthly basis! And you mentioned that she didn't even give gas money, but Chukchansi is really far and she never pays for gas. I had more to add, but I forgot.
