On Monday, Townsend made her move, getting hired on the spot at a job fair held by the Ocean Casino Resort in Atlantic City. “I didn’t know craps, so I had to be honest and tell her, but I went out and I learned it.” “She said, ‘I’ll pay you to move to Florida in two weeks,’ ” Townsend said. While working at one Atlantic City casino last year, she went to a job fair held by a different one, and was surprised at how instantly in-demand she was when the recruiter wanted to hire her as a craps dealer. As a casino dealer, Shamikah Townsend knows when the odds are in her favor. (AP Photo/Wayne Parry)ĪTLANTIC CITY, N.J.
