Caesars Entertainment Casino Cocktail Server Salaries ...

I wasn't at work for more than 10 mins today when I was approached by a guest as I was walking through my section. This is how the interaction went.
Guest: excuse me, I had a question but more of a concern.
Me: of course. Omg, do I have something on the back of my dress?
Guest: oh no, you're fine. You remind me of my daughter...who I just admitted into the hospital for anorexia. Honey, be honest with me. Do you have an eating disorder? Your body looks so much like my very sick daughter. She almost died from this.
Me: (completely stunned that a random stranger would be so rude) no, ma'am. I have always been thin my whole life. I appreciate your concern but I am fairly healthy.
Guest: are you sure? I know people with eating disorders are very secretive and lie about it because of the shame.
Me:(now I am really pissed and upset because I haven't been skinny shamed in a long time. I feel like I have to defend myself from this degenerate gambler) ma'am, I walk 7-10 miles a night and have been thin my whole life. I am prefectly ok though. Thank you. I hope your daughter gets the help she needs.
Guest: ok, I just wanted to ask in case you need some help.
I just smiled and walked away.
I deal with pretty weird people on a daily basis and am treated like complete shit but this tops them all.
Why was she in a casino dropping her life savings into a machine hoping to hit it big instead of in the hospital with her dying anorexic daughter? Talk to your damn daughter and not some random stranger serving drinks. Dont put your shit on me. Fucking people.

gas prices could rise due to currency fluctuations

Russian gas price (at the border) had increased from $150 to $165 per 1000m³ in 2019. Although the Russian currency Ruble was devaluing against the Dollar, Armenia was/is paying for gas with Dollars.
Since 2019, the Pashinyan administration has been trying to convince Russia to implement a different gas payment mechanism within the EAEU trade bloc. Making payments in Rubles instead of Dollars was one of the priorities:
"We are constantly talking about high dollarization within the EAEU, but we still pay for Russian gas in dollars. Our proposal was that it would be more correct if we paid for gas in rubles, because I think it is more logical, also within the EAEU," said Pashinyan in early 2020.
This idea was also shared by Vladimir Putin's personal adviser back in October 2018. It appears the EAEU has been working towards this goal lately.
But meanwhile, Armenia has to pay for Russian gas in Dollars. With Armenian Dram devaluing against the Dollar, the pricing for consumers will likely be revised. Consumers pay 139 Drams per cubic meter. This was calculated in 2020 when $1 was 480 Drams. Today $1 = 520 Drams.
Large consumers pay in Dollars and have their rates adjusted periodically, while small consumers (general public) pays in Drams.
Armenia imports 2.2 billion m³ gas from Russia annually, at the price of $165 per 1000m^3. 0.7 billion of it is consumed by the general public.
Dram was devalued by 6.6% since November. This could prompt the internal gas company to raise the prices, including for the general public.

former PACE MP sentenced to 4 years for taking bribes from Azerbaijan

An Italian court has concluded that Italian PACE representative Luca Volonte, who is the former head of the European People's Party, took €2.4 million in bribes from the Aliyev regime in 2012-2013.
The bribe was handed over by Azerbaijan's PACE delegation leader Suleymanov. The scheme was coordinated by an Azeri lobbying firm based in Brussels. In return, the MP gave Azerbaijan favors during PACE and Italian Parliament sessions.

POWs and searches

The search crews in Artsakh discovered bodies of 10 soldiers and 1 civilian in Jabrayil, Hadrut, and Sgnakh regions. The civilian has already been identified by his relatives. The cause of death is being investigated.
Many bodies under the possession of the Armenian side are yet to be identified, while more bodies will likely be found during daily searches for the foreseeable future. Overall, 575 calls have been made by families who are looking for missing relatives, says the Russian humanitarian envoy in Artsakh.
https://armenpress.am/arm/news/1039900.html , https://www.panarmenian.net/arm/news/289293/
Human Rights Ombudsman Tatoyan once again criticized Azerbaijan for intentionally politicizing and delaying the POW swap mission. "It is against international laws to file felony cases and arrest POWs because that's a form of a prohibited punishment. Azerbaijan is also hiding the true number of POWs."
The Ombudsman has noted that Armenian residents in Tegh, Vorotan, and several other bordering villages have lost access to 2500 hectares of farming lands due to border changes. (some lands that were internationally recognized as part of Azerbaijan were given to Azerbaijan after the war).

POW discussions: general prosecutor meets Azeri counterpart

Chief prosecutor Arthur Davtyan and his Azeri counterpart were invited to Russia. The three sides held a conversation about the establishment of future contacts in the field of international law and other related topics. Prosecutor Davtyan mentioned the importance of implementing the November 9th statement about the return of POWs, "which will serve as an assurance for implementation of other [trade unblocking] issues."

how much will a new railway network cost?

Azeri economists believe it will cost around $430 million to build a railway network connecting Kars(TR)-Nakhijevan(AZ)-Meghri(AM)-Zangelan(AZ)-Baku(AZ). Overall, if you add Gyumri between Kars and Nakhijevan, it could cost about $434 million.
Economists believe Armenia can use this network to connect with Russia via two directions: Gyumri-Nakhijevan-Meghri-Baku (southern trip), or Ijevan-Ghazakh-Baku (northern trip).

rumors & rebuttals: traitors are not selling Azeri juice in Armenia

Telegram channel Mediaport circulated rumors that "Azeri Sandora juice is being sold in Armenia". The misinformation was picked up by several outlets and caused confusion among the buyers.
Fact-checkers contacted Sandora's local importer who said the producer is a Ukrainian company that sells its product in multiple post-Soviet republics, so they have one unified tag that contains information both in Armenian and Azeri languages.

food prices in Artsakh

Pricing for 43 commonly-consumed items was examined by the consumer protection agency in Artsakh. 12 became more expensive, 5 cheaper, 26 remained the same.
Onion +25%, cottege cheese +6%, milk +6%, gloves +5%, ..., pear -12%, rice -1%, eggs -1%, butter -1%.
Several dairy product prices went up, and since Artsakh has dairy companies that own dominant market share, the consumer agency will launch an investigation to see if there was price-fixing.

seismic resistance assessment for old buildings

A significant portion of Armenia's large apartment complex buildings were built half a century ago. They may not be seismically safe, considering Armenia's geolocation. After the 1988 earthquake, some buildings remain populated despite being deemed highly unsafe. Many other buildings have safety irregularities.
It is necessary to assess the situation, so the Urban Development Committee has drafted a bill "Methodology for assessing the priority of increasing the seismic resistance of buildings and structures".

IRS will closely monitor gambling industry / RFID chips & servers

IRS press release: gambling facilities and online betting services will be more closely monitored. We worked with international experts to digitize the gambling industry and bring it on par with international standards.
All gambling machines and platforms operating in Armenia will be connected to one server which will be connected to a monitoring Center. All betting and winning transactions will be recorded.
The Center will also install RFID microchips in casinos to monitor the movement of chips, the chips purchased or won by players, in real-time.
The government's Digital Council has approved the bill, which is yet to be discussed and voted in the Parliament. The goal is to be able to monitor the financial flows in this sector and to estimate the actual revenues. It will combat money laundering.

"turn off the camera"

Context: An incident happened last week between parents of drafted soldiers and military officials at a military unit. The parents wanted assurances that their sons would be safe after being deployed on Artsakh borders. The parents wanted to know why Armenian soldiers are still being sent to Artsakh "despite the November 9th statement saying Armenians should withdraw from Artsakh."
During the confrontation, an incident happened between a military official and a journalist. The official struck the camera and instructed it to be turned off. Several media outlets released a message condemning the officer for hindering the journalist's work.

Armenia will soon import COVID vaccines

Healthcare Ministry: we are negotiating with multiple entities. The first batch of vaccines will arrive between late-January and mid-February. We are negotiating with producers whose vaccines have passed the necessary tests: Sputnik V, Pfizer, Moderna, and AstraZeneca. In the first phase, the vaccines will be given to the most vulnerable 10% of the population.
https://armenpress.am/arm/news/1039921.html

Sputnik V vaccine has already been tested in Armenia

Healthcare Ministry: no complications were reported by the 15 patients, including Minister Torosyan. The often-discussed "skin redness" in the injection area has not been observed, either.
The first injection gave a 91.4% efficiency. The second increased it to 94%. Even if the vaccine doesn't fully prevent the infection, it can save the patient's life by making the case mild (is that right??).

the new COVID strain: good news, bad news

Doctor Davit Melik-Nubaryan: the version of COVID that mutated in the UK will eventually reach Armenia. Preliminary data shows that those who have already been infected and gained immunity from the original COVID will be immune to this new strain. It is believed that the immunity will last 6-12 months for the majority.
The good news is that the new strain isn't more deadly and doesn't result in heavier cases. The bad news is that it spreads a lot faster. The Healthcare system could be overloaded again.
The vaccines against the original strain will likely work against the new one. Pharmaceutical companies may have to modify the vaccines, but it will only take weeks.
Closing borders with the UK won't be helpful to prevent it. We may already have the new strain. We need to develop a new strategy from the ground up.
Viruses mutate all the time. It's part of the evolution. Sometimes they cause more severe symptoms, sometimes lesser. From the evolutionary and survival standpoint, viruses want to cause less severe symptoms for the host so they can have a chance to spread wider.

first Yezidi theater to open in Armenia

"шəp' y əBин" or "war and love" will be the first performance in a newly opened Yezidi theater in Ejmiatsin. It's part of a «Եզդիների կողքին» cultural initiative. The crew had planned a major performance about Yezidi national legend but the 44-day war began and some were drafted.
The crew ended up performing the "шəp' y əBин" during the war. It's about the importance of Yezidis in Armenia, and their love for the country. The January 17th performance will be dedicated to Yezidis who died fighting.
The performers aren't professional actors but they received acting training on-the-fly. "It seems to work because their enthusiasm is great. A very good team has been formed," said the producer.

disclaimer

All the accused are considered innocent unless proven guilty in the court of law, even if they "sound" or "appear" guilty.

Since 2017, I have worked in a major casino as a banquet server. It was terrifying at first. It was SO FANCY. I went from selling ice cream and coffee to setting a ballroom full of 50 ten top tables with like eight pieces of silverware. There was so much to remember and I honestly didn’t know if I was going to make it.
We did all sorts of events. Car shows, basketball hall of fame, Make-A-Wish gala, American Cancer Society, baseball auctions, Miss America, epic Christmas parties... it was mostly just corporate events but even the most simple ones, like banquets for nurses and teachers, were fun.
It was every type of food service you could possibly imagine — hand passed appetizers, plated meals, family style meals, and exquisite buffets like you’ve never seen. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and everything in between. Even the most basic meals were incredible.
You never knew what your job was going to be, or who you were going to work with when you walked in, and that was the scariest part to me. One day, you’d be on the soup station. The next day, you’d be working with a partner to serve a six table section and walking across a giant ballroom with a tray of ten piping hot dinners while trying to remember who had the gluten allergy. Or you could be scooping gelato. Or building buffets to perfection. Or passing around trays with bacon wrapped scallops and raspberry and Brie tarts. Or clearing while 500 people have their cocktail hour. Once you got used to something, they’d throw you into something totally new.
It took me about a year and a half, plus a lot of anxiety attacks and considerations of quitting, but I eventually got the hang of it. It was an on call job, so sometimes I’d work 40 hours, and then not have any work again for two weeks. That’s why it took so long to learn everything. And there were 75 other people in the department, so sometimes, it was scary to find out that you’d be working with the OG server who’d been there for fifteen years and will chew you out if you mess anything up, yet sometimes YOU would be the one to have to explain to someone new why all the coffee mug handles absolutely had to be facing the same way, and still correcting them anyways. It was hardcore teamwork.
There were so many ups and downs, but it was a fantastic gig. We were paid extremely fairly. It never mattered what my job was; it could have been the hardest or the most boring task, I’d do it gleefully because I knew I’d be making a good paycheck regardless. Oh, and did I mention that 75% of the time, we got to eat the leftovers? Yeah. They’d have giant displays of shrimp over ice sculptures — and while it was disheartening how much food got wasted (or “sent to pig farms” as they told us), it was the best thing to ever happen to me. Now that I think about it, did I really love this job, or was it just the endless shrimp? Hard to say...
The physical gains were powerful. Lifting a 60-pound tray on one shoulder while walking across a huge ballroom doesn’t sound fun, but holy shit, was I fit!! I would easily walk ten miles during a shift. It was painful a lot of the time, but it felt sooooo good to be active. The mental gains were astronomical as well.
I made it up the seniority list. Every year I was making a little bit more money. Returning to events I had done in the past was super exciting, because being able to look back on where I was as a shy and sickeningly anxious newbie, now to someone who was helping all the newbies feel as comfortable as I wish more people had done for me... it was truly a unique and wonderful feeling.
It felt like where I was meant to be. I originally wanted to move out of state, but this job kept me close. I had full intentions of staying for as long as I possibly could. I didn’t get enough hours and had to work other jobs the whole time, but at the rate I was moving up, it could have been my only job in a year or two. I could have lived an EXTREMELY comfortable life only working four days a week at a job that I absolutely loved. They had just built an 80 million dollar convention center — on top of the 5,300 people capacity ballroom — which meant there were WAY more work days on the horizon.
The last time I worked was in the beginning of March. It was a summit for a large real estate company. Over 1,200 people from all over the country (and let’s be honest, probably a covid hotspot before we even knew it). Bougie ass people. I stood in one place with a tray of wine for hours, and then immediately had to serve a seven table section with a new guy who, while enthusiastic and willing to listen to me, had no idea what he was doing. It was the only event that I had cried at in the past two years I had done it. I almost cried at this one (because it just got so, so crazy) but I didn’t! And that, to me, was progress!
But now, coronavirus is here to stay. Tightly packing ten people to a table, with fifty tables, and thirty servers weaving in and out of the aisles, touching plates with food, grabbing glasses to fill wine or water, trusting thousands of people to serve themselves on a buffet... none of those things are safe anymore. None of it. Most of these events were not local, they were national, so you’d have people from everywhere.
They kept telling us that although all of the spring and summer events were cancelled, that come September we’d have work again... but we all know that was never going to happen. Now the casino I work for has finally come to the hardest and most heartbreaking decision... it’s time to lay everybody off. Things are never going to be the same again.
No more banquets. No more cocktail hours. No more weaving through 800 people to get dirty plates out of the room all while listening to rich people’s conversations and judging their expensive outfits. No more bonding with my coworkers in the back while the group is having a speaking presentation. No more late nights and cranky mornings. No more guessing who had the most cocaine in the room. No more wine service. No more uppity contacts. No more pushing six buffet tables through a busy casino to get to the other side of the property. No more five-table dessert buffets. No more giant paella. No more shucking oysters and sliding them down an ice luge into a martini glass. No more silverware rolling quotas in the thousands. No more sweating my ass off while I constantly refilled a buffet. No more waiting for the last person to leave so we could all go home. No more linen. No more BEOs. No more polishing wine glasses. No more endless shrimp.
It’s all over. That is so many people out of work now. Cooks, dishwashers, EVS, audio and visual, house men, bartenders, bar backs, and of course us servers and our captains and shift leaders. Do you know how many people it really takes to put on these events? It’s a lot.
I knew this was coming, but I didn’t want to think about it yet. Now I’m waiting for the phone call. And I know that one day I’ll find my place again, but I just feel so lost now. I wish I could say I’ve spent the last six months brainstorming my new career path, but I’ve really just been sad.
TL;DR: I was a banquet server at a beautiful casino for three years and after a lot of hardship, it became what I thought was going to be a lifelong career. Now I’m being laid off.
Edit: If you know, you know. But please remember rule #2 of this sub! And thanks for the kind words, friends.

Obviously nothing in Vegas is “free” but which hotels (if any) bring you free drinks when you’re gambling? Went a couple years ago to the flamingo and they did there. Visiting with a buddy of mine in a couple weeks

Sorry I’m on mobile. I’m a cocktail server in a casino for reference. Let us begin the story by setting up our cast.
Me: me... K: our Karen GOF: group of friends FS: floor supervisor MA: manager
So the other day my coworker had to call out for an emergency, no problem it happens. I ended up taking over her section. Currently we don’t have any open bars we only have service wells and we have a limited selection of drinks from them. If we have to get specific drinks for anyone we need to get a printed comp for it which obviously takes time and then we can go to a different location to pick it up. This means any time I have to get a guest something special we have to walk across the casino, find a slot manager to get the comp, then walk back to the other side of the casino and get the drink in particular. It’s definitely annoying and time consuming but we have to deal with it. I like to tell people the process so they understand why it takes so long to get their drinks. Most people appreciate this. K was in high limit which basically means you can get whatever you like. She’s the only one gambling and her GOF weren’t playing but whatever they’re in high limit it’s cool. GOF all order shots and K orders a casamigo anejo skinny margarita. I warn her that I have to get a comp and it will take time. (I’m just letting her know so she won’t get mad if it takes a while, it’s 3am so we’re more limited than swing shift is too) K immediately gets angry screaming at me that she can see the bottle (there was a bottle in the high limit bar but that bar is closed, we have to do inventory on each bar separately and so I can’t ring up her drink there I have to go somewhere else plus I still need the comp.) and that she’s been playing $20,000 a hand (she was playing $200...) I smiled and took it and did what I could, got her drink and her GOF their shots, MA got my casamigo anejo and my comp for it taken care of, I bring them all the drinks, GOF tip me $5. Cool. Drop off K’s drink, and continue taking orders for the rest of my guests. FS comes to find me not long after, apparently K doesn’t like her drink and may need a new one. I go to K to ask her what was wrong with her drink and offer her a replacement and she whips around and screams at me “YOU BROUGHT ME A BULLSHIT DRINK, FUCK YOU! I DONT WANT YOU SERVING ME ANYMORE!” I just look at her and respond “ok” and walk away. Like what more can I do at that point? I served her GOF another round but I ignored K the rest of the night. At one point I noticed she looked like she wanted to order but after that interaction I was not about to serve her again I mean she told me not to. I heard her complain to the blackjack dealer that she couldn’t get a drink and he even told her “you told her not to serve you, so she’s not..” K went to her hotel room not long after. As I was leaving work early (honestly she was so mean I cried in the back service well, I don’t cry easy) I was talking to other coworkers in different departments and EVERYONE knew exactly who she was and hated her too. She apparently has a reputation for being an angry Karen. I was glad I wasn’t alone. My coworkers are the best, none of us deserve that bs. Stay thirsty Karen.

Hi guys. Im looking for some insight on union jobs. The main question I have is how do you get these l? Seems almost every casino has them and you don’t get hired without being in one.
Do you just go to a union and apply and they help you find jobs? Sorry if this is a stupid question. Been here almost 10 months and can’t find a job anywhere. Applied to SO MANY places. My experience is in cocktail server if and bar tending. TIA. Hope everyone has a good night!

I don't particularly enjoy these "spotlight" posts, and they detract from the point that /coronavirus is filled with these people, not just a couple crazies.
But when I end up with a single user featured in every thread I make for an entire week, I can't really ignore it.
Meet Ms. Bell: she's a baby boomer, she has a housekeeper, she knows science is wrong, and she's currently averaging 10 /coronavirus posts a day.

I have noticed that science is frequently wrong, and the more "consensus" is involved, the wronger it is.

So the CDC has been fully compromised by politics and there isn't much point in listening to their guidance. Even though I happen to think they are right this week, I'm pretty sure they were wrong last week and ridiculous.

It feels like betrayal, like getting stabbed in the back by a family member. When a betrayal is this unimaginably evil, you don't see it coming and you are shocked when you realize what they did to you, not by accident, but by plot.

"Acceptable risk" is weasel words for "certain people are expendable if I can get more money".

Ms. Bell on empathy:

Superficial people hate masks because they think attractiveness is their only asset and facial expressions are an adequate substitute for intelligence.

I just don't think it is a big deal to wear a mask. It's a tiny, trivial little thing. Some people will gladly do it forever.
The downsides are assaults on vanity and egocentric definitions of "freedom".

The primary concern is "lack of empathy". People who display blatant lack of empathy are people I am no longer willing to tolerate. History has shown, that is how you identify the people who are evil and wrong.

You don't feel sorry for anybody but yourself.

People don't like to wear masks because it interferes with being a public asshole. Who are these people? Unclean.

Who is foolish and dangerous? Look in a mirror. This pandemic is real, it has killed 200,000 people, and winter is coming.

There is a cohort of tr0lls who are trying to convince people to give up and be reckless and put themselves in danger. What can we do? Out-troll them.

Ms. Bell on hospitals:

This is a very scary article! These children are very sick, weeks or months after being exposed to Covid and recovering. They were healthy before, some are now in intensive care. Seventy sick children is not "statistically insignificant".

The disaster is here, and they are going to get sick, and their guns aren't going to do them a bit of good.

It doesn't matter how many people agree with you, spreading disease is still wrong.

You need your helper bacteria in your gut, whether you have covid or not, but it sounds like things can get really hairy if you have covid. I might be inclined to skip the Rx. But keep an eye on the tooth socket and if it looks infected, then take it. Also, don't get medical advice from people on reddit.

If you go to the hospital with flu, you can catch covid in the hospital and get double sick.

You don't want to get the flu! You might have to go to the hospital and get exposed to covid and become a twindemic statistic.

Ms. Bell on civics:

Slap a $10,000 fine on anybody who interferes with a testing team. Being a obstinate disease-spreading louse should cost you.

For some people, their actual marriage is going to be shitty, because they are so selfish and clueless. The only good thing about their marriage is the wedding, where they cash in and get a bunch of expensive presents. After their bridezilla exhibition kills a bunch of people, they settle in to a life of low-level squabble punctuated by occasional drunken fights. They are broke, they cheat on each other, their kids hate them, and the whole family is miserable.
They would have been a miserable family regardless of the circumstances of the wedding, but at least by having a big wedding they managed to be the center of attention for a day and also score some presents. See how that works? Why should they give up their one chance for a great day knowing the rest of their lives is just going to suck because they are shitty people marrying other shitty people.

During the great depression, we put people to work in the Civilian Conversation Corps, and we built Hoover Dam. We didn't supplement people's jobs as cocktail servers and craps dealers.

Just shutter all the casinos and pay all the unemployed people for the duration of the pandemic.

So now our tax money is supposed to subsidize casinos? GTFO, we do NOT have to do that. Let them fail, let rich people lose money, let other rich people buy the properties at a discount. Who cares?

Don't kid yourself that drug use in college has any benefits to the user. It doesn't. Stay straight, put your nose to the grindstone, and learn something. Or else quit wasting everybody's time and money and go home.

College is a privilege. It is not an excuse for bad behavior. Those people who think otherwise can gtfo, and go home and flip burgers and reflect on the missed opportunities they squandered for substance abuse and sex.

I don't want to subsidize idiots who think school is about partying. You are so ignorant, and so stubborn about hoarding your lack of knowledge, you don't even seem like college material.

The day the danger passes is going to be a day of dancing in the streets. Those of us who strictly followed the recommendations are going to have the most fun celebrating of all.

Quarantine is as old as civilization. It is mentioned in the bible. Of course it works. It didn't work this time because half the nation didn't take it seriously, obviously because of lack of leadership.
It was not the policy that was the ineffective. It was the unpatriotic attitude of the people who refused to cooperate that destroyed the effectiveness of the quarantine.
Shame on those people. They brought our country low.

Ms. Bell on fearmongering:

You can't provide any evidence that there was widespread fear of bodies in the street, because it DIDN'T HAPPEN.

somebody is wrong, either me or the cadre of malcontents. So far, the evidence is on my side. Unless somebody supplies better proof, we can assume the people accusing this sub of unwarranted hysteria are just making it up, pulling nonsense out of thin air, spreading fake news, talking out of their hats, and are full of baloney.

There is a cadre of malcontents who accuse people of taking positions they never took, and exaggerating their reactions and calling it fear porn. But this narrative is simply made up. It's the precaution-deniers who are the ones actually saying ridiculous things

Why would anybody say the healthcare system would go into "complete collapse"? That doesn't sound realistic at all.

I have seen reports of a death rate of 1-2%. I have not seen any reports that "everyone will die" and I have not met anybody who believes that or said it.

Normally I'd post examples of each of the things Lady MacBell claims never happened, but...look at what subreddit you're in.

Ms. Bell on discourse:

don't worry about down votes. Karma is an illusion and the points don't matter.

I can't believe how the sensible people get down-voted around here and the reckless people get upvoted.

That is very rude of you and contributes nothing to the discussion. It's typical of a certain mindset, though. "If you don't agree with me it means there is something wrong with you". No, that is not the case. There is nothing in particular wrong with me. My opinion is justified based upon the facts present in this discussion.

You mad bro?

This meme was not created or spread by a grandmother. It was made by someone else and attributed to grandmothers. As a grandmother myself, I think the sentiment is idiotic. I also think it is shameful people are blaming this stuff on grandmothers, who neither created nor posted this stupid low-effort attempt to get a rise out of people.

Ms. Bell off her meds:

Have you noticed how all the clothes look the same these days? Everybody has to wear leggings and tee shirts and hoodies that all look the same. Fashion didn't used to be like that. You used to be able to find things that were fabulous.

YSK about a demonic eyelid parasite called "demodex". It burrows into your oil ducts during the day and comes out at night to frolic in your lash line. It will attack you mercilessly, causing blepheritis and leading to blindness. Virtually everybody will get this if they live long enough. If you google "tea tree oil for eye mites" you get a lot of support for this remedy.

ffs people don't put fucking tea tree oil on or near your eyes. can we please get this awful advice taken down? this is actually dangerous

TL;DR — CMA for telling my coworkers I was fired because of my mental health?
So I used to work as a cocktail server for a casino in my area. Due to my state's regulations regarding reopening nonessential businesses during COVID-19, the casino was only able to reopen for business if it followed very strict criteria; for example, cocktail servers like me cannot run drinks out to patrons on the floor right now, and are instead stuck manning the self-serve soda machines to reduce the risk of customers spreading germs to each other.
There are a slough of other extremely important protocols and changes in place, and the tension is especially high among the bar staff - we're only able to serve alcohol at all by exploiting a loophole that says alcohol may only be served alongside a food item, and if we heck any part of that up, all bar staff go back on furlough. That we had already lost all but one senior cocktail (me) and three of our five bartenders wasn't helping, as we were all stuck pulling double and triple shifts to cover the gaps.
On top of this, the casino rolled out a few new changes NOT related to COVID-19 - namely, new uniforms: Long sleeved black dress shirts, long black slacks, and a clip on bowtie that necessitated the shirt collars being buttoned all the way up. No variations are allowed - not even neatly rolling up the sleeves in hot weather.
It is currently summer where I work, and we've already had several weeks of temperatures in the 90-100 range (Fahrenheit). All black clothes in starchy fabric, with long sleeves and fully buttoned necks, on a job where even the drink station workers move around A LOT. To add to this, anybody in security or food/beverage can and will at some point have to step outside into the full sun to run patrols or grab supplies from the outdoor containers, and the people in the cashier cage are working with zero air conditioning.
To further add to the work stress, management has repeatedly caught wind of employees stretching the rules to make their lives easier - cocktail servers having soda or tea behind the counter, or cashier cage ladies bringing in little battery powered fans - and shot every single one of them down. Remember how I said we can't roll our sleeves up? That's another example. We WERE until management decided it looked unprofessional, even when the sleeves were neatly cuffed.
TO ADD TO ALL OF THIS, over the last month I have had my six year old cat Izzy diagnosed with terminal lymphoma (and am nursing him through his last few months at home, which includes occasionally giving him an IV electrolyte push for dehydration); have received news that my mother is considering leaving my father due to his alcoholism (he is NEVER abusive, but she can't watch him drink himself to death anymore); and am faced with roughly $2000 in bills and loans that I need to pay off on what was an income of maybe $700 a week. On a good week.
I struggle with clinical depression, anxiety, and what we believe may be high-functioning autism. I do have a history of self harm, especially in the last two years. I made the casino very clearly aware of both of these things upon being offered a job.
On Sunday (July 5), due to ALL OF THE ABOVE, I suffered a massive depressive episode while in the employees' restroom at the casino, on the clock during a fifteen minute break. During this episode, I noticed there were two extremely sharp exposed screw points sticking a little bit out of the wall in one corner of the stall I was in. I was able to remove myself from the restroom WITHOUT injuring myself, but not before I had to spend five minutes seriously talking myself down from opening my arm on those screw points and another five in a ball on the floor pulling myself back together.
I went immediately to the security office and told them what had happened; then (because I am used to these episodes, and because I am significantly harder on myself than I have any right or reason to be) I went back out to continue serving drinks at the self serve. I was shaky, but no longer in a place where I actively wanted to hurt myself.
A few minutes into this, my supervisor comes to talk to me. He takes one look at my face and at my hands (which I had balled tightly in front of me, and which were still shaking anyway) and tells me to go home - "Don't worry about the casino, go home, take care of yourself."
On my way to the employee locker room - in a hallway only employees are allowed access to - I had a panic attack and went down to my knees again. I was not able to recover sufficiently to prevent EMS from being called, and spent the night in suicide watch. When I was discharged, the doctors ordered me not to return to work until Thursday (July 9).
On Wednesday (July 8), I received a text from one of my managers asking me to please call the head of HR. There was no warning and no explanation as to why (I later learned she had no idea why, either).
As it turns out, I was asked to call HR so that they could fire me. They had my phone number on file; there was no reason they could not have called me themselves, instead of essentially setting up an ambush.
I have had no history of behavioral or work complaints, barring one customer who got mad because I wouldn't give him drinks five minutes after the casino had shut down for the night. I have never been called in to discuss my work ethic or habits, and I have never been spoken to about my behavior or demeanor. Just the opposite: Even up to the day I went on suicide watch, my managers and supervisor raved about how much of a help I was and how grateful they were to have me on board.
HR officially listed my termination as "at will" - basically the common label for terminating a part-time employee who just doesn't quite fit in with the rest of the crew. However, not only was I full-time and off probation - something the casino's own handbook says PROTECTS AN EMPLOYEE from at will termination - but the timing and lack of corrective history prior to my termination make it very clear that I was fired due to my mental health. I was not spoken to prior to the termination.
In the state where I live, mental health is considered a disability, for which employers are not legally allowed to terminate employment if they have prior knowledge - which, again, I made sure the casino did. Beyond that, mine is only the most recent termination since we came back from furlough that could only be called "shifty" at BEST. We have lost ten other employees before me under questionable circumstances - in one case, my previous supervisor was terminated two weeks ago and nobody seems to be able to tell us WHY.
I had already been considering reporting the casino for shady and downright unhealthy practices, though I hadn't told anyone. After I had turned my stuff in, I went around to all my coworkers around the employee area exactly WHY I had been terminated. I did this knowing and fully hoping that it would encourage more of my coworkers to walk out. I still plan to report the casino for shady business practices, and am considering filing a lawsuit against them.
CMA, reddit?

With bars shut down (I'm assuming that includes bars inside casinos), I'm afraid I might not be able to get drinks quick enough. How is the cocktail service these days? Do they have plenty of servers? Are they attentive?
Any recommendations you could make for someone who is often thirsty? Are you allowed to bring outside drinks inside the casinos?

I was wondering, are there places that are like restaurants but only serve drinks? Like are there waitresses in bars?

So first and foremost, I'm a cocktail waitress in a casino, drinks are complimentary as long as you're gambling yadda yadda.
Today was basically a clusterfuck from the very beginning. I get to work, take orders in my section, and drop off. Literally the first order I'm dropping off, I tripped over a chair that someone pulled out from the roulette table, because they're fucking allowed to do that for some reason. Anyway, I didn't see the chair, so I tumbled forward (hard) and it was a miracle I managed to catch myself before I hit the floor. Not so luckily, the Sprite I had on my tray also tumbled forward and went all down the back of this lady. She was pissed, of course. Wouldn't accept any help from me. Complained to higher-ups for the cherry on top. Now I have a huge bruise on my leg and a guest complaint to start my day off.
The next thing being it was just one of those days where everyone wanted to order when I already have a full tray to drop off, and of course they get mad when I tell them I'll be right back. Because that's the easiest way to forget someone's drink is when they just shout stuff at you when you're not even taking orders.
There was this one kid who came in twice last week and asked us for root beer floats two days in a row, despite us telling him we don't serve root beer floats. I had the same guy tonight come in yet again to ask for - you guessed it - a fucking root beer float that he knows damn well we don't serve. I know he's just fucking with us at this point, and he's just wasting my fucking time when I'm in the weeds to be an asshole.
There was this one guest who really hurt my feelings, because her husband asked me for bourbon on the rocks, which in the casino, if you don't specify what you want you get well. So naturally, I gave him well bourbon. He didn't complain about it, but when I came back around I asked if he wanted another one. And his wife said, "Yeah, if you can figure out where the top shelf is."
So I whipped around and I said, "Excuse me?" And she was talking to her casino host for this exchange, and she just leaned in and said, "Is she just young, or did my joke just go over her head?" And the casino host, being my CO-WORKER, just replied with "Oh she's just young" so they had a good laugh about that and I was fuming.
If you wanted a top shelf bourbon, why don't you just ask for it when you order instead of being a condescending asshole about it? Instead of treating me like I'm a child that doesn't know anything about how to do my job just because I look young? I've been at this job for three years, and it really bothers me when people underestimate my knowledge because of my age.
Oh, and the best part? When I asked him to specify what "bourbon" he wanted?
"Crown reserve."
Goodnight, everyone. Fuck my life.
