Opportunity for VP players to make a few more bucks in Vegas

Many of you may be aware that casinos use mystery shopping companies
to evaluate guest service levels, F&B operations and hotel standards.
I've been doing work in this industry for a few years now and a
company I sometimes do work with, BestMark (www.bestmark.com) , is
now looking for some new individuals to perform some evaluations in
several large casinos on the Strip (I cannot divulge the specific
company, but let's just say it's been referred to as an "Empire"
hehe). They also have work in Laughlin and Reno (and across the
country, for that matter).

The projects typically involve interacting with eight casino
employees (in various departments) and an optional F&B outlet
(typically the buffet). Each job takes about 1.5 hours and pays ~$75
plus reimbursement for the dining outlet expense (I use comps and get
the cash value reimbursed). It's not great money, but it's pretty
simple work once you do a job or two.and when combining with another
purpose (a playing session or cashing a BB coupon), I find it worth
my time.

The only skills needed are a trained eye, decent writing skills (some
brief narratives are required) and an accurate memory (a digital
voice recorder comes in handy too, but isn't a requirement). You will
have to obtain a Sheriff's work card (the state of NV considers this
PI work and if you're currently a casino employee you aren't
eligible) which costs $90 and will be reimbursed by BM after you've
completed eight projects.

There are some additional minor details that you will need, so if
you're interested, email me directly at: VEGASSTL@charter.net and
I'll give you the contact info of the BestMark rep.

Disclaimer: I will not earn any type of commission for anyone who
signs up. I consider the BestMark rep who handles the NV accounts to
be a good guy, and I consider BestMark to be a reputable mystery
shopping company (unlike many 'shady' mystery shopping operators). I
personally have profited from this work and I'm hoping to make some
introductions which will lead to mutually beneficial relationships
for others.
