Next year, remind me before you start it, (**Preferably before my shift***)
And I'll remind *YOU* to *REQUEST* me as the dealer, if possible, or that
I be put into that string...
I'll be sure to let the management know what's going on, (not letting on
that the house won't be getting *SQUAT*, of course..;-)
that a group of players wanted to have me deal at least 1/2 hour to them,
and I think we can arrange it!!!
I wouldn't take the no tipping thing personally, as I know the source
<GRIN>, and I'm SURE that the other dealers would really appreciate it!!!
