10 Most Fun Jobs, Part 2
Here's part 2 of a very fun article from CareerBuilder.com on the top ten most fun jobs available:
Job: Proposition Player
It's fun because: Poker night with the guys or gals is just another day at the office. Employed as regular casino employees, "props" start games, fill chairs when the tables get short and keep the action moving. Best of all, they get to keep all their winnings.
The not-so-fun side: Props don't get to pick and choose their own games, gamble with their own money, and do not get reimbursed for their losses.
The payoff: An article in Los Angeles CityBeat reports that prop players cash in at up to $30 an hour (the average salary of most regular casino workers) and get health benefits in return for a regular working week.
Here's the problem with this job: they "do not get reimbursed for their losses." I could lose MUCH more than $30 per hour. This sounds like a money-losing job to me -- and hence not that much "fun."
Free Money Finance recommends Emigrant Direct.
