I worked for a while in one of the revolving gaming halls in the capital. I intend to share the benefits and negatives that this job has brought me in order to help people wondering if they should start working in such establishments, and of course I think that everything is strictly individual and things may not work out for you just like to me. Even before the start, I had ideas about what everything would look like, which in some parts coincided a lot with reality. You will acquire / develop many qualities if you are really motivated and have a mind for this profession, because it is not for everyone. It is quite probable that you will lose a mosquito, for reference - 90% of my colleagues played one or another form of gambling, it is already very relative how far you will go. My addiction developed extremely fast, and I've never played before, I started with small amounts of BGN 10/20 per entry, playing only typewriters, just the other games never attracted me, I reached BGN 200/300 per entry, in the end I played almost all my income, I didn't have enough money, I took out quick loans, I bet my phone a few times. I had experience with drugs before that, but with hard work came the desire to relax more often and use degenerated into abuse, almost daily and in large quantities (weed, amphetamines, alcohol) Then I went to the casino and the rest of the money went there and so half a year.
Money was made, I can't deny, I came home with 100/200 euros per night only from tips, there were also weak shifts, of course, but in general money is made, which if you are not a gambler (but you don't have that) how to know it before you start, as I had never mosquitoed), you will be satisfied, to put it mildly. The qualities that you will develop - cunning, manipulativeness, tact, intuition increases significantly, you will be able to quickly judge people (who has what money, whether it can be processed to take it from him, because you will be expected mainly to take the money from guests in the hall.) You will acquire an incredible approach individually to each, you will understand how to get under a person's skin, you will understand their thinking, if you are poisoned enough there will be fat tips. If you are pitiful, modest, slow, or easily lose your temper and angry about little things, this job is not for you.
Also, do not expect from the customers kind and polite behavior, most are simpletons, drinkers, drug addicts, fraudsters, some will be rude to you and you have to accept it. I'm talking about the daily clientele, the addicted gamblers, not the people who rarely go to play for fun because you don't rely on them to make a living for you. Some clients are privileged and you will have to put up with all the misery and cracks, and I know this is not the case in every room. Being there notions of honor, dignity, I forgot them over time, I became more or less naughty and I was even amused by all sorts of swearing, spitting, pouring drinks on machines and such nonsense. Come on, that's enough, and I don't know if anyone is interested in reading my novels, if there are, I'll add some things. In general, I don't think it's good to start working in a place like this, but I know that if you are determined, you will do it, and I hope the things I said will benefit those of you who think. For those who, for example, has already started work and at the same time feel that you are playing or have already started playing chat-pat, NOW IS THE TIME TO STOP! If you continue to hit the bottom as it happened to me, especially if you use substances, because the vices are mutually reinforcing, I always went inadequately in the casinos and then pulled my hair, realizing what I had broken them, so be smart to stop while things are still in their infancy. If you feel a thrill, run away!
To be successful in this field you have to be completely cool to gambling, you don't have to be attracted in any way, you are there to make good money, not to play! especially if you also use substances, because the vices are mutually reinforcing, I always went inadequately at the casinos and then pulled my hair, realizing what I had broken them, so have the mind to stop while things are still in their infancy. If you feel a thrill, run away!
