Her own mother did, not me, technically.
So where I work it's a gaming law that children can not be up in line with you, standing around or even near the cage area. You can't stash them behind a pillar, two feet away from you behind the line or anywhere else you think "stashing" the little ones are appropriate. They can casually stroll by slowly and get around this rule sometimes.
It's not my choice I can get fired if I help someone with a minor, get fined and so can the Casino. I didn't make the rules. So stop acting like I did and being an ass to me. I am just a sheep following strict rules.
I notice a mother in line with her kid. The kid was super adorable probably like six or seven.
Me: Unfortunately ma'am I can't assist you with a child present.
SC: (Instant suck mode) Well what am I supposed to do with her then??
Me: uh, do you have anybody else with you?
She gave me the stink eye and told her kid to stand behind the line.
Me: Again, she can't be there. This whole area is a gaming area and kids can't be here. They can be by the restrooms or the restaurants...
SC: Go stand over there then!
She barks at her kid.
Kid: Mommy... I can't I'm not supposed to be by the machines!
The mom grabs the kid and takes off and I watch her trying to leave her kid in various spots only to have the kid wail that she didn't want to leave her side. It was heart breaking. But I can't do anything. She even tells the kid to walk back and forth but it upsets the poor kid.
I will not loose my job because of this. There has to be a family member or a friend somewhere. How else did she get the chips or whatever she had?
A few mins later guess who is in my window and her little girl is like a few feet away.
SC: I want your boss! This is ridiculous!!
Me: okay.
I run to the back to grab my boss. She comes out but we can't find the lady anywhere. Security was with her kid and the poor kid was bawling. Cuz she left her alone in a spot where you shouldn't and her kid was scared.
I honestly felt bad but again not bad enough to get fired. I'm on tape and I need this job.
Finally she leaves with security. Comes back up later without her kid and cashes out with my co worker. I hate when they cuss at me like I am making it personal. It's not my choice. But this is an adult place to be.
