I have put in somewhere around 50 hours now (on campus, another 20 or so at home) into my BlackJack Dealers school and believe that I now have the confidence needed to take the written test and live game audition on Tuesday. I was asked on Thursday if I would be interested in working some weekend parties dealing BJ as well so if anything I have shown enough talent to get noticed by the party director. This will be great practice which will come in handy for my real audition for a paying job at one of the Casino’s should that be the direction I decide to pursue.
I plan on starting the poker dealing course on Wednesday which from what I understand will take twice as long as the BJ course did. In the area of California that I live in, the Casino’s (all Indian owned Casino’s) are just now beginning to expand into their poker rooms to include Texas Holdem. I have been told that getting a BJ dealing gig now will be the best way to position myself to move into the poker dealing jobs as they become available. I still plan on looking into a few of the card rooms located in my area as well, as this was my original strategy to begin with. The dealing gigs in these card rooms are so good that there is little turn over so one has to really score to get in on this action. The only draw back in working at these card rooms is the benefits are no where close to as good at the Casino’s offer.
Another draw back in working the Casino’s is the distance that they are from my home. Gas has just now reached $4.10 a gallon with a speculated peak of somewhere around $4.75 by summers end. Sixty miles one way will result in somewhere around $200 a week just in gas. That is totally wack.
Edited out some information that I have been warned could cause regular AP players to experience problems with getting their withdraws processed quickly. I in no way would ever want to be looked upon as being responsible for something like this so I have taken this commenter's recommendation and removed the content in question.

Excellent job shipping the Dealer training course. Dealing should be a great way to learn more and build a BR. You will meet some great ppl along the way. GL with that.
Not sure if you're aware, but it's not a good idea to be mentioning the payment processor's name and bank that they use on public postings like this.
This is exposure the banks DO NOT want or need (and yes they scan google every now and then....how do you think I found this post?) Next thing you know, no one is getting checks anymore.
You should delete this right away.
