Samenvatting:

Follow the often rollicking adventures of a career in food and beverage work - from the unglamorous, almost comical, late-night responsibility of rowing restaurant garbage across the famous lake at the Bethesda Fountain in New York's Central Park, to dealing with an infamous Lake Tahoe casino bombing, and several stops before, after, and in-between. From among his many vignettes, Oakes doesn't merely provide a peek behind the curtain, but a long, detailed look at perhaps the most revered casino culture that ever existed prior to the Wall Street-led mergers that gobbled up the gaming industry in Nevada, and changed it forever. Here, then, are stories that bring smiles and laughter, disbelief, and yes, even some lessons.
