Help Wanted

[deadmanbusiness]

Theo found the casino easily enough. The directions were clear and well, the name was an easy tip off. He found it an amusing idea that he'd be applying for a job a casino. His father would disapprove, but his father wasn't here and it was something different from his actual life back home.

Jasper on his shoulder (Jake in his pocket as usual)he knocks on the door before opening it. "Hello?" he calls out.

Comments

"I'm nocturnal. It takes a ridiculous amount of coffee to keep me awake during the day. So, that would be great."

[recognize_an_opportunity]

"You can start tomorrow."

He doesn't waste any time. If Theo is any good at his job, he'll stick around. If not, or if he doesn't like it, Meyer can always hire someone else.

"You'll start with just dealing poker. You know how to do that, right?"

[deadmanbusiness]

Theo holds up a finger. "And pay?"

[recognize_an_opportunity]

"That depends on how successful we are. You'll get a flat hourly wage, and then tips. It's not going to make you rich, but it'll be enough to get by around here."

[deadmanbusiness]

"Fair enough. I'm not to worried about being made rich. Getting by around here is what I need."

[recognize_an_opportunity]

"If we start making good profits, there's always the opportunity for a raise."

He, himself, would love to make it rich, but that wasn't likely to happen around here.

[deadmanbusiness]

Theo is ridiculously rich back home. He doesn't need to make it rich, his father owns countries.

"I won't turn that down."

[recognize_an_opportunity]

"Then we have a deal."

And he'll shake on it, to make it official.

[deadmanbusiness]

"Deal."

And he'll shake as well!
