I was not responding to you, I was responding to JLOKC, and his question.

No dealers in Vegas have Sat or Sun off. Dealers have to work the day to be paid for it. This is A.C. procedure, that you're talking of. Also no dealer works 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. The day shift is 12 p.m. to 8 p.m. However, even 10 years into a job, I have to work overtime on holidays and big convention weekends. When a new casino opens, it is expected that a dealer will work the first year 6 and 7 days a week. In answer to your question, the casino does not have to report dealers tips in their quarterly filings. Dealers pay taxes on the tips, and have their own account.
Dealers will only make slightly over min. wage, no overtime or holiday pay at most houses. Dealers live off of tips. Each casino varies on the amount of tips they receive.

paperprincess, Wynn dealers worked 10 hours a day 6 and 7 days a week. No casino in Vegas makes $100.000 a year (this was Mr.Wynns story.) Dealers are skilled workers, that work holidays and long hours, with uncontrollable abusive people who have been drinking, and no management backup. I also feel teachers should be paid more, and will vote for any politician that supports education. However this is Gov. supported education that is not for profit. The casinos are profitable billion dollar world wide corporations.
