That’s chump change here in Vegas. Everybody from the casino porter on up is making 6 figures on the strip. Middle management is driving brand new Maybachs and Ferrari’s to work and living in multimillion $ homes in Spanish trails and Summerlin. Upper management lives in the penthouse suites on property and commutes back to their mansions in Palm Springs on the weekends via privately owned G-4 and limo transport.

Do the math... that works out to almost $650/day even if she meant before any payroll tax withholdings. Waitresses often hafta share a portion of their tips (I was told 10% at one place for example) with the bartender, but that still seems unrealistically high.

Actually, they've upgraded to Gulfstream G650s, as I've been able to get a pretty good deal on a couple used G-4s.

for the humor impaired and supremely dense.
