You ever get angry about a bad beat? If that’s your job have you been as courteous as ever to players and dealers? You’ve never once mumbled something under your breath? If you did it’s fine. Things happen. Just like sometimes a dealer loses his cool when his income is affected. I won’t hold it against a dealer if they get snippy once in a while.
Yes, non-tipped, non-gambling non-entrepreneurial positions do know how much they will get paid in advance. But other people still control how much money they make.
I've certainly gotten frustrated about bad beats. A few times I have even gotten upset after a major run-bad, but never angry. I definitely have said things that weren't good for the game. I have gotten upset or even angry with a dealer before, but only for major mistakes that were completely under his control. I've certainly never been upset at a dealer because of the random card he took off the top of a deck.
Actually it's extremely rare that I've seen a dealer get upset about anything he shouldn't have. Really I can only remember maybe three times when I have heard a dealer mention anything about not being tipped. And I don't ever remember any "getting snippy" about it. Maybe I'm just not paying attention or not a good judge of that. I do notice when a dealer isn't up to his usual level of skill / professionality, but maybe I didn't realize why it happened.
