How many others here can truthfully say that about their job?
It really is GREAT that mickey is still enjoying what he is doing.

I did for a long time, playing blackjack and being in casinos, but all of the sudden fairly recently I no longer do. It has become a chore or more of a job to go out on a Saturday night and play for 8 hours.

I think I became spoiled when I started doing stuff (sports betting) from home, and making money from the comfort of my home. All of the sudden the appeal of 6-8 hours a day in a casino was gone.

Once I am out and at a table playing blackjack, I still enjoy playing and winning by that method. It is just the whole getting out into the casino environment that has lost its luster for me.

One issue I have with the way I now play, on weekend nights as opposed to the years of playing every day during the day, is that on a Friday/Sat night at 9pm-3am, everyone at the blackjack table is drinking and drunk. When you are the one sober, non-drinking person, you don't find any of that stupid shit amusing.
