After years of being down a couple of people in my department at the borgata. . They finally hired someone to fill one of the open positions. . Me!

I start Monday as a full timer.. and due to my 10 years of service already. . Get immediate benefits and 5 weeks of vacation time a year.

The pay is better than I expected too

Something to add.. going from part time to full time.. I took an hourly cut in pay.. equaling to about $5.40 -less- an hour.. but I now get 40 hours instead of around 20ish. Plus I can still take calls elsewhere in town.. the potential for a very good year is there.

Seriously. A few extra greenbacks every month does wonders to alleviate that crushing self doubt feeling...

yes.. we get paid time off. For every 40 hours of work.. I get 7 1/2 hours of PTO.

I definitely got one of the best jobs in town. The Borgata still treats it's employees like people.. having worked at the others as a casual, I can tell you how miserable some of those places truly are to work for
