I call the floor multiple times each night. Its usually something like a player wants a table change, there is a request for a rake reduction, damaged card, clock, players want to consolidate tables, and other things that you can't control.
But I am very liberal about calling the floor for decisions. I think perhaps sometimes the floors may think I call them too often .... but I think this relates to my seeing issues that others don't. For example in the incident that I recently mentioned about the exposed card that I thought had been exposed by the player until after their had been action, I think most of my coworkers would have just shrugged and moved on (the players weren't raising the issue as something that needed a decision) and when the floor got there I'm not sure he really understood why I would call him for something like that.
But I am very inclined both to see these issues and dump them in the lap of the floor.
Also sometimes if the floors look like they aren't busy.... I like to call them with nonsense. If a player is going on and on about how they haven't seen a face card in hours .... sometimes I'll call over the floor to relay the complaint. I mean really if I have to listen to this crap why shouldn't the floor.
