I don't give this information to discourage people from coming to Vegas to look for jobs but to help a person make an informed decision when looking at moving to Vegas and looking for a job, that they need to do their due diligence first before just moving here without a job first.

If your thinking of looking for work in Vegas you may want to find the job first before coming. Especially since our unemployment keeps rising.

May be, but if I were to lose my job tomorrow (and let's hope not, I really like this job), I would be back at work in another kitchen in less than a week. There ARE jobs available, if the applicants skill set matches what Las Vegas is looking for.

This forum does it automagically for some unknown reason.

All I know is that if you keep using capital letters, something very bad is going to happen (the forum-bot said so).

How does one learn to be a slot-tech? I love casinos. I love tech. I love slot machines.
..I could start off in Atlantic City while I wait (impatiently) to get across country to where my home really is

...Any info, I'd appreciate it. I've done some unsuccessful google searches thus far, lol

There's technical schools that offer certification if I'm not mistaken.

This is great for someone that lives below his/her means. But seriously, you amount of pay cannot support a family, pay a mortgage, or provide medical benefits. This is not a real job.

That would depend on where you work.
