Ynn-Way

So... I am on my quest to write my comedy shtick. And some of it is ok.

....and some of it, I tell my friend and she says, "sooooo... why is that funny?"

I'm sure it's just because I am ahead of my time.

But enough about me, let me tell you about me...

I was sworn to secrecy under penalty of not getting a job about my new job, but now the time has come for the unveiling.

You are reading the ramblings of one of the new employees of the brand spanking new Wynn Hotel and Casino in faaaaaaabulous Las Vegas Nevada!

Why, yes, that IS a Masarati/Ferrari dealership they have in the middle of the hotel, why do you ask?

The dealers that work in the "mansion" casino will be wearing Armani suits. And me? Just a little tailor made number, which themselves cost around $1000 a piece that I only have to pay $129 for. I believe the uniforms are going to be brown which pleases me because that means if this doesn't work out, I can always try my luck at Denny's...or even UPS.

It's silly, really. They've put a lot of money in this hotel, and that's why I wanted to work for Wynn. His attention to detail is borderline neurotic, and we know how I loves me some neuroses.

I'm giving up a lot of vacation time to go for at the Wynn. A LOT of time. Hopefully, the money will be worth it. I mulled over it for days, but ultimately I decided that there are worse places to work than a world class resort. But mostly, I won't have to work with my husband.

I love my husband. I adore him. And I enjoy stolen kisses while we're on break, but I also enjoy having something to talk about when we're at home.

A lot of the dealers that I tell say stuff like, "Congratulations! Wow, yeah, you're still young enough to make a change like that." The older dealers never go for a job like that because they're fairly confident that they won't get hired because of their age.......and their feelings aren't completely unfounded, so they like to say stuff like, "You're still young enough to do that."

Another weird thing they say is, "The people that will be there. It's going to be a much higher class than the trailer trash we cater to here." Which is also funny because rich people have their own special way of pissing me off. So, that's the other thing, people are jackasses no matter what, but at least this way, I'll get paid more to put up with the jackassedness. And I always find that I'm more patient when my wallet can cushion my backside.

So, who wants to touch me?
