This is one only one casino show, and I doubt it is even real and unscripted. For the locals, living in Las Vegas is no different than living where you are at.

I have never worked in a casino, and I am wondering if this is show is fact or fiction since Operation Repo, which is on the same channel, has been exposed as fiction.

You live in Vegas and know cocktail waitresses don't make that kind of money unless they offer more than drinks to high rollers. More like $500 if they are really hot and have a great area on the floor to work.

To be blunt, most of those waitresses / bar maids on Rehab are really nothing special when you get right down to it.

Won't disclose the name of my friend on the internet, sorry. I think $5,000 is a little excessive to guarantee anyone to make in a night. Anyone who would engage in activities like that to "make a living"...really what kind of living are you making? Is "living" really having a $32,000 sports car, a 6 bedroom home, a kitchen that you won't cook in cuz you don't know how, throwing money into the air to prove that you're cool? Does that really make people "happy"?

Back to my favorite quote:

I agree, they have to be adding script to the show. Did anyone see the episode where that partygoer was looking for the hottest girl and picks a woman. She turns out to be a tranny. Come on, you would have to be a total idiot not have known from a mile away.

So Matt just got promoted... I'm frankly disappointed... What are your thoughts about his promotion or this weeks episode in general?

Well....I think Matt is a big jerk I did agree with him about the waitress making a big deal that she didn't get tipped enough though. While I feel for her there is no way in hell she should have chased those people down and cried at them that is just way over the top I think those waitresses are not very nice for the most part.

What waitress ISN'T nice in general lol.... Anyone who is high-maintanence and shows their t!ts and a$$ on TV feels like they deserve all the attention and feel like they are superior than other people. Puh-lease.

I agree with gal being fired. If she was whining the whole entire time about her getting a tip during my kind of party, I'd forgo any kind of gratuity. I'm usually a damn good tipper (usually 30%) so she wouldn't even need to beg and bring out the tears and puppy eyes. Ah well.

We'll have to see about Matt. I heard him say that a lot of the pool GMs don't last very long so I hope he leaves the pool and sticks to the new gig.

Just going by the commercials I see from the Las Vegas Tourism Dept and reports from people I know that have gone out there. But to each their own.
