The first job I ever had was at the race tracks.. I was fired for gambling on the job.
The floor managers all liked my style though. They were doing it too. I never snitched on them and they took care of me. Everyone in the lane came to me for picks.
They fired me, 4 days later I was repositioned to work along side one of the handicappers at the park. For the rest of that season it was the best job I ever had.
Handicapper and I making picks for the programs.. My name was "Rusty" for an entire year of handicapping.. I still have the programs saved for the entire season with my picks!!
With the pressure on I can honestly say I was horrible. When I was just some paramutual clerk selling betting tickets and advice to the floor managers I was nails.
Strange how dynamics can change like that.
