re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

Sorry fury. I hope you get better soon.

Is the casino open on Thanksgiving and if so, do you have to work that day?

Thanks! It sucks because I can't attend a wedding of a friend of mine at the Zen Center today, I'm just too run down, and still have to work tonight.

Yeah, like UT said, casinos never close. The Sports Book does close at night, but as there are still games on holidays, we've got to be there.

Here's the rub this year. I requested Thanksgiving off, and my boss said I could either work 7-11 in the morning or close from 5-9. I'm like alright, we eat later so give me the early shift. Then when the schedule goes up I'm on it from 8-4, the whole damn day pretty much, considering I wouldn't get home until 5! Long story short, I raised holy hell, and pouted a bit because I'm so damn good at it, and he changed it back to 7-11, as discussed.

This is the main reason I've gone to making my requests via email, and saving the responses, so I have evidence. It helped this time!

Glad he was able to give you the time back! 7 to 11 is a nice shift, and holiday pay right? :)
 
re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

They've all done away with holiday pay in the past few years. All casinos do is take take take. I used to get double time on eight holidays a year. Now we get an extra eight days off per year wrapped up in the PTO days. So yeah, great, eight more paid days off, but it basically took eight days pay away from everyone that worked holidays. There's absolutely no incentive for an employee to want to work a holiday now, so it causes in-fighting with all of them jockeying for position to get the day off.

Sucks! Casinos suck *****. :lecture

Casinos never close, Ben. Unless there is a superstorm Sandy coming their way.

I also got THe Croods and Turbo 3d Blu combo packs for $17.99 each. Yay for more cartoonies!

Who had that? I have been wanting Crooks

I just ordered Big Bang Theory S6 for $16.99 on Blu-ray. :yess:

I hope they have some good SH Monsterarts deals on Amazon.com. They had some pretty good ones last year.

Little Mermaid BD is $15. I'm tempted to buy that, get the 2D disc replaced and send my 3D set back to Amazon since Disney isn't replacing the 3D disc. :mad:
 
re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

I knew I shoulda waited for S6... Haven't even cracked my copy open. :lol

That and TWD, are the only two shows I'm collecting.

Starting a cursory search for a Gandalf the Grey PF, if any of you have a line on one. :wave
 
re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

He's the grey PF, raising his staff in the air! :lol

I got funds already! Woot! :yess:
 
re: (galactiboy's Cantina) "Where everybody knows your name..."

Why do you want one fury? You'll just sell it anyways! :lol
