Casino Night...

My employer hosts a 'Casino Night' for their employees each year as a 'Thank You'. The night starts around 5:30 for dinner, a brief meeting about the year in review, and let the gambling begin. Craps, Black Jack, and some spin the wheel & see if you have chosen the right combo of numbers after you made your bet. Each person has received $3000 in 50 dollars bills. After the gambling is done, money is counted & top winner picks a prize. Everyone wins that has money left at the end of the night. Prizes range from a Wii gaming system, Cleveland Cavs tickets, Cedar Point season passes, Fuji digitial camera, Faberware pots & pans, charcoil smoker, digitial frame, tool box, dvds, ipod, camping tent, corn hole, etc. So many things to choose from!

At the start of the night, both Scott & I were losing money. LOTS! So we sat down and mingled with the others. We decided to try again at the craps table, and my the end of the night, I was betting $1000 at a pop. Only to win all the money back we had lost together!

Last year, the top winner had winnings of $20,000. This year, that amount was blown out of the water with earnings of $43,150. We had a good time...

Since, our company works 24/7, it is hard to get off at the same time. So, twice a year the supervisors plan to go out after the gambling. And the supervisors are close in age with the exceptions of two, and have spent the last three-five years together. Our shift was planning to meet up with them too. In other words, let the PARTY begin......
