Salary for cocktail waitress in las vegas? -

let s say a cocktail waitress works at the wynn, bellagio, city center, rio, etc. (the 4,5 star hotels) during day shift, what s the average they make a day if they work full time? I ve researched and people only gave bullcrap they make a lot kind of answers. I can tell. It doesn t sound like a high positioning job, but they make so much money. Every round they make about 10, 12 dollars and God knows how many people tip and how much they tip. Can anyone give me an approximation (please don t just make up a number, i want real data) of how much they make (min. wage included)? also, do they pull tips like the dealers do? how much are they taxed (i mean, the tips are cash, they can write a lower than actual number when reporting income and when govt. tax them)?i ve heard $75,000-$100,000, i ve heard some good ones make over 100k/yr, etc. I know it all depends, but I just want to know an approximation. a lot of people say beauty is an advantage and that i should go for it (and that my college degree is not worth as much as a cocktail waitress to be honest. as someone with a four yr degree and credential, i don t even make over 40k a year and pay super heavy taxes), but look at the old, ugly waitress (sorry but not to be mean) in caesars palace! it s a 5 star, world renown hotel yet...and i heard they make big bucks. i don t know. I hope someone in this field can answer my question. thanks

You are asking a question that has a lot of variables. Location, time, day has a lot to do with the amount they make. I overheard two casino executives talking. They commented that their girls were averaging $60K. This was an off strip locals casino. Several years ago there was a cable reality show called American Casino which took place at Green Valley Ranch. The High Rollers Area hostess make over $400k per year. She did work over 80 hrs a week because she didn t want anyone else getting her tips. That was the reason they even mentioned the amount. So there is a range.and you have to realize that working weekends on the strip at a major casino, being beautiful doesn t hurt, will net you the most amount of tips.

unemployment is las vegas in over 13 per cent. in good times one could do very well.now the casinos are half empty. i would venture to say 30 to 40 thousand dollarsa year under the current economic conditions. when the economy improvesi feel you could make considerably more.

waitress in the Union Hotels make 10.75 an hour Salary in the Union Hotels. As far as making bank, the ones in the pit area, or the ones in the High limit area do make a good tips.However, the more you make the more you are taxes. All tip position in the casinos are taxed by the IRS on top of their salary. Most are taxed about 7 $ per hour more than then normal tax on their salary.

There are a lot of things to consider here.It s true that a handful of the senior models that work at Wynn, Bellagio and Venetian (and yes, modeling experience is a job REQUIREMENT, along with several years of bartending, for most high-end cocktailing positions in Vegas), who work regular 6pm-4am shifts Thur-Sun in the high-limit areas, might have hit 6 figures in a good year.But the reality is that MOST cocktail waitresses in town - i.e. the 1000s of women like you who came out here to get rich and are now working weekday afternoons at Excalibur, Luxor, Monte Carlo, Planet Hollywood, Bally s, Flamingo, Harrah s, Imperial Palace, Riviera, Orleans, Sunset Station, Cannery, etc., etc. etc. were probably averaging in the mid 50k range a couple years ago and are probably averaging 35k-40k now.So really, the ugly old waitress in Caesars Palace is not making more than you are now, and she is going to make less and less each coming year until she is forced to retire because she no longer meets the appearance standard. Is that really a career path you want to start on?

8hr Stop Over in JFK - what can I do? -

Myself and my three mates are going to Vegas but have an 8hr stop over in NYC. Can you tell me if there is a cinema near by or anything? Something to kill the time! Thanks.

Go to the airport s website and see what there is to do in the airport itself. You won t really have time to go into the city and get back.

It will take you an hr to get into Manhattan. So you have plenty of time to hit Times Square, walk around, grab food and head back. But cabs run $45 + tip each way. Split between all of you, should be fine (if you can fit the luggage) otherwise try the bus or shuttle for only $17 each person..http://www.goairlinkshuttle.com/http://www.nyairportservice.com/There is NOTHING by the airport worth going to.

Go check out times square.

Yeah, you simply tell yourself. Telling yourself s just the way thing go

Who prevented the supplies from being shipped to boston? -

Moving to America help needed!? -

Right, i want to move to kentucky lexington and am currently living in England. i dont know what im suppose to do first or anyhting!?anyone help

I suspect that you stand about as much chance of getting a green card as a snowflake does of not melting in hell.

You just want to move there, or do you have an actual reason to move there? Are you planning to become a legal resident? Are you going to want to/need to get a job?You need to start by:-- getting a UK passport-- saving a significant amount of money-- read everything on this site which will tell you about immigrating to the US:http://www.uscis.gov/portal/site/uscis-- start filling out forms-- have a great deal of patience for the whole process to workGood luck to you.

Wouldn t the first step be to get a passport?Then go on an apartment hunting site and see what s available in the area.Then make a trip out herre to see the place.IDK...

Move to Australia and we can be buddies.

Kentucky?!Can I ask WHY?!!

You re doing a big mistake.
