At some point in your lifetime, when you were young you were also broke/poor with little of anything to your name, money or otherwise.

Obviously to get from that point to the point you guys claim to be at now, you had to take many many risks, some calculated, some outright balsy and daring.

You had to grind from nothing to where you are today.

I'm trying to do the same thing. George claims to be trying to do the same thing as well.

So instead of showing so much contempt for those with little money trying to make something of their lives, why not instead think back to the time in your younger years when you were in our shoes.

Might give you guys the proper perspective to be a bit more supportive and understanding.

Because regardless of if you care to admit it or not, once upon a time the two of you were in a position in your life not so different then the one George and I are in now.

If you had listened to the advice you have given us in this thread when you were that age, and you were in our shoes, I doubt the two of you would be beating the stakes you are beating today.

Just some food for thought, that's all.
I dont claim to play high stakes, dont know where you got that from.

Fact of the matter is that I gave some very good advice earlier in this thread, then George became a douchebag and started mouthing off. He asked for advice, got advice that he didn't like and then decided to talk ****. I have no problem giving advice, tips and tricks about Vegas. If someone doesn't like the advice or whatever, that's fine. Just dont come back talking **** and calling people lazy and telling me that I'm wrong. If I'm not 100% sure about something, then I wont comment on it or I will outright say "I'm not 100% sure". GWB stated something to the effect " there are plenty of bartending jobs out here paying like $18+ an hour, if you can't find one you're just lazy" (he heard that from some people in a bar on boulder highway). Then when told he's incorrect, he started in talking ****. He was under the impression that you can just walk in to a bar on the strip and get hired lolz.

At this point I hope he fails big time. If you're gonna ask for help on this board and then when people take the time to try and help you and you dont like what they say using their past experience and decide to berate and belittle the people that are trying to help you then you can just **** off.

GWB, by his posts ITT proved how much of a douchebag he is, he deserves to wind up at the I-15 and Trop exit begging for change.

Maybe next time someone asks for advice on this board all the established posters like jaylv, eco,mschu, myself etc should refrain from giving it, maybe GWB should handle answering all the Las Vegas questions since he is so knowledgeable about this place. I mean after all he does have a certificate from Bobs Bartendering school, a nice shiny red scooter, a "fully appointed 2 bedoom condo", a job working for some guy for free and he has been here for a month or two.

Re: Job Market in Vegas?

Yes GWB, me and JayLV are sitting in a rent by the day motel replying back at you. Are you ****ing mentally retarded or something? You're probably sitting behind the keyboard of your Apple IIe jerking it everytime you get a reply ITT. You're the troll up in LVL little man. I think my posting history can speak for itself, can you say the same thing

Re: Job Market in Vegas?

Just an fyi King, I am the OP in this thread not GWB.

Your last two posts seem to be suggesting that he is OP, and I am some guy randomly posting in it.

Not the case. Don't think you can be a troll in your own thread.

I don't know maybe...


As I've said, I will listen to any advice even if it's advice I don't enjoy having to hear.

For example early in this thread I was told that without a car, which I don't have, I would have a very hard time doing a job search in the middle of the summer in 105 degree heat.

I didn't love hearing that, but I did accept it and I have since changed my plans accordingly.

But as I said earlier in this thread, and as I will say again...

'Don't even bother setting foot in Vegas, stay wherever it is you come from and just give up on your dreams and ambitions now before you even get a shot at them'


that's just plain out awful advice. No matter what. Always!

You may never have said anything like that to me, in fact I believe you did not.

JayLV did say something very much along those lines however. Sorry if you feel I am unfairly lumping you in with him here.

Re: Job Market in Vegas?

I know you're the OP ITT, GWB decided to hijack your thread.

I would never say abandon your dreams, dont move here etc. Vegas is a great place to live if you have some sort of plan. I would never suggest moving here blindly though that's for sure.

GWB had some lofty idea that he was going to score a job making $18+ an hour like he's above all the union bartenders with experience waiting for a call for a job. I just pointed out that that isn't the case here.

Sorry to dirty up your thread with all this back and forth but he doesn't seem to get it. **** him.

How are your plans going?

Lmao I guess you must be as dumb looking as you sound and I just love how you and the other troll/pinhead come up with these lame stories, I for one never said I was gonna start off making 18. an hour again read the thread pinhead and secondly I'm the one that said there's 4,000 laid off union bartenders so another FAIL on your part!! If you reread the thread which I know for a fact that you didn't you would have seen that I said min wage is fine for me and if i got 50-100 a night, now LOOK at the keyword I'm saying this realllll slow so you can remember/understand "IF".

I never said don't come to Vegas. I just said be realistic.

The problem I have with the moron who hijacked your thread is his attitude. He acts like a giant douche whenever someone questions him. You took your criticism and feedback very well. You said you had a solid background and felt you could succeed and then stated why, which is plenty fair. You didn't go off and tell everyone they were trolling you, etc etc etc and act like a big baby.

I'm too lazy to quote george but everything he types is a bunch of unintelligent babel. Like I said, name the time and place and I'll be there to ridicule you in public or take all of your money if you'd like to sit down at a poker table with me.

Like I said, I'm done with you unless you'd like me to speak to directly to your face.

Stop talking about me and that'll be that.

I would love to file it but being I don't have a legit job how can I and as far as the condo goes if you read the thread earlier you would know but i'll save you the trip. I have a roommate and when I left Connecticut, I left with all my money I have more than enough to live on for 2 -3 years w/out getting a job but that's obviously what I don't want.
