Mob returns
So Mob returned from leave today, and for the last five weeks while she was gone I thought everything had gone alright. Nothing urgent, nothing had blown up. I was semi-proud.
But today when she came into my office for a quick catch up on my matters, she asked me about the report in one of them. I was confused. What report? She said just before she left she left a message on my voice mail.
Shit.
I remembered. She had asked me to do a report. How did I forget? I quickly apologised and felt my face going red. I said I had the hearings on at that time and forgotten about it. I could've died right there. Or I could've been fired right there.
She didn't seem to react much, but I knew it was bad.
I quickly made a start on it but shortly after I had to leave for the physio. I wasn't too sure of what to expect, but did anticipate some massaging of my calf muscles. The physio was a girl called Emma. We had a bit of a talk at first about my injury and my usual activities, then she had me go through some exercises to see how tight the muscles were. Then onto the bed and the massaging began.
People always say they enjoy massages and it relaxes them, but they must be talking about other types of massages, because this one made it onto the pain scale. When I got up from it, I could feel it already being sore, though she called it "tender".
I was told to go back in a week, so after making the next appointment I returned to the office. I would've felt really bad if I left the office before Mob, so I ended up staying back, even though my plan was to go to the casino.
Gary was in her room talking for a while, so she only left at a bit past 6pm. I stayed back a bit after before leaving. I walked to the casino and withdrew $1800 in the process.
When I got there, I checked out the roulette tables and saw the first few were packed. I looked further down and saw one packed and one empty. The one closest to where I was had one guy playing - perfect. I saw the old man and we nodded to each other and said hello. I told him I just got there and asked how long he had been there. He said he had been there a while. I asked if he was any good today and he said he won a bit.
I told him I was gonna give this table a try and I bought in $800. I noticed the dealer was a girl I had never seen before. Almost immediately I noticed she was rather beautiful in a way that didn't require make up. She also seemed to be in a very happy mood.
I stayed quiet because I wanted to concentrate. I tried to keep my self control in check and didn't bet on all spins. I won like $20 at first playing outside bets. Then on one I won $110 as it landed on 5 when I bet red/middle column.
I sat out a few spins before noticing that her past spins had touched on 0-3 sector only once before going to 1-2. So when it landed on 0-3 sector, I went on 1-2 only to see it land on 0-3. I went again, this time splashing about 30 chips all over the 1-2 sector. It landed on 13 where I had four splits.
That was the majority of my winnings, but just before that I had also won on 17 where I had two splits. I then sat out a lot of spins and only played cautious outside bets when I did. I studied her when she wasn't looking. She was definitely new. If not by the way she dealt, then surely by the way her supervisor was teaching her. The guy was called Hal or something, a real creep. He pretended to teach her how to spin and touched her hand in the process. He mentioned something about her boyfriend so I guess that was it for me.
I stayed real stoic throughout and didn't say much, even with the old man sitting nearby. I learnt that his name was Mark L something, as they asked him because another Mark had been entered into the system.
I was close to $800 gain when there was a dealer change. I played a few outside bets to get myself to $800 and then cashed out immediately. Mark asked how much I had won and I told him I started with $800. The Asian bloke next to me said something about how well I did. I just tried to stay humble and say it was all luck, but I didn't feel comfortable with saying how much I had won.
I walked around the casino a bit and checked out the baccarat tables before cashing in and leaving. I realised I still had a $1000 chip in my pocket but decided to leave with it anyway.
I walked back to the main part of the city where I caught a bus home.
