ahh, that holiday spirit is upon us.

Customer: Why is it that even if accompanied by a parent, children can't be on the casino floor after 8pm?
Me: Well, those are the house rules, sorry.
Customer: What if we're staying at the hotel here?
Me: We have an arcarde, a pool, and a gym. There are a lot of things that children can do here.
Customer: Most other casinos aren't like this.
Second Customer: Actually, ma'am, most other casinos ARE like this.
Customer: NO, only *names off three casinos, including mine* are like that.
Me: I'm sorry ma'am, those are just the rules.
Customer: Well, I can tell you right now we are never staying here again.

Me Thinking: Who cares.

New Customer (who just tried all three of the ATMs, unsuccessfully): Is it okay if I write a check?
Me (knowing he's tried the ATMs): Sure. I could process your credit card here, but it would be a 7% charge.
New Customer: Well, what is it at the other ATMs?
Me: 2.5%
NC: Why the hell is it so much here?!
Me: Because the company we use charges a percent, and then we charge a percent for doing it.
NC: Well that's stupid. *finishes writing check*
Me: Okay, I'll just need your driver's license and player's club card.
NC: What the hell is that?
Me: It's a card for our casino. You have to have one in order to write a check here.
NC: How do I get one?
Me: If you go over to the player's club desk, they can make you one. It's free and only takes a couple of minutes.
NC: You know, I'm liking this casino less and less.

Urg.

So Aaron and I are going to Gillette on Wednesday to celebrate Christmas early with my family, since I have to work on Christmas Eve and Day. I think it will be fun. And then I think afterwards, we will spend some Christmas time with his parents.

And I'm pooped. Sorry it's been so long since I've updated.
