Revenge is best served with cold apple pie

Post by billryan »

So I am at my favorite casino for a late dinner after a wild and raucous weekend. I mosey over to my favorite seat on at the bar for some NSUD when I see my very least favorite slot attendant is off duty and sitting next to the only empty seat. I don't desire to deal with him so I go to my backup bank and discover they have been downgraded to 15-9 from 16-10 a week ago. So I'm planning on leaving when I notice a slot machine with a blackout at $376. These get reset at $200 so it means no one has hit for awhile.
I throw in $50 and get a bunch of nothing hits, whittling my money down to $28 when I hit for $18.
Back in the game. About ten minutes later, I'm at $27 and thinking of quitting at $25 when I am awarded 10 free games at 3X pay. Hit for $18,$54, $18 and one small one when the reels start spinning and the magical blackout spin appears. It's either All Red for $376 or All Gold for $276. Wheels spin for a seeming eternity when it pops up all red!!!!!!!!!
I'm thinking I won over a thousand dollars when I read the rules and it states Blackout Spins not subject to in game multipliers.
Oh well, cash out at $525 and find out I'm in the top ten for a cash drawing that ends in ten minutes. I'm #9 so its not a sure thing. With about two minutes to go I am down to number 10 and sweat out the final minute.
They announce ten names. Only seven are here, and you pick an envelope with the low guy( me) drawing last.
Prizes range from $500 free play to $50 cash.
The $500 FP is gone when I draw but I open it and its
$150 cash. By the way, they have wised up and all the envelopes are the same thickness, it just has a piece of paper saying what you won. The days of feeling for the thickest envelope has gone.
I look up and I see my least favorite slot attendant at the bar, giving me the stink eye. I blew him a kiss.

Good story, you maybe should have held off on blowing the kiss though as you may need something from that person down the road.

The story billyryan shared is precisely the type of anecdotes and experience that this site is supposed to be about. And since your reading ability is well known to be poor, you failed to see that, in Billy's story it was the slot attendant who was the villain with his giving the stinky first....So where is your advice to the snot attendant about rubbing CUSTOMERS the wrong way?   What if the snot attendant needs something in the future and Billy is the one holding the "key", so to speak?

Myself, I will help anyone, even total dicks, if the situation is dire enough....

Fine, I toned it down a notch, but I personally am sick of casino employees giving stinkeye, pink eye, black eyes and blind eyes to customers who keep them employed. As far as I'm concerned, every casino owner and all employees should be kissing our collective arses for allowing them to work and support themselves in casinos
