Every Casino Has a Maze of Passages For Workers To Use

Have you ever noticed that you almost never see workers (cleaners, cooks, etc) on the floor of a casino?

Sure, you'll see croupiers and dealers working at their posts, but then they'll disappear, replaced by another worker.

Where do they go? How come you never see a dealer walking through the casino?

The answer? The maze of passageways that every casino uses.

Let's take your standard Las Vegas casino.

You have the floor of the casino, which is bustling with games and tables and all of the rest of it.

A typical casino has hundreds of employees, if not thousands, working at any given time, but you never see these workers walking through the floors of the casino.

This is because casinos will have an absolute maze of passageways that they use, specifically to keep these employees off of the floor when they are moving to their posts, or leaving for the day.

You'd be amazed at the network of passageways that these casinos use. Every square inch of their building has been mapped out.

Every square inch of the building has been mapped out so that a chef can travel from the parking lot to their kitchen without being seen by patrons.

Every square inch of the building has been mapped out so that a janitor can travel from a bathroom to their main storage room without being seen by patrons.

Every square inch of the building has been mapped out so that a croupier can leave the floor without being seen by patrons.

A typical Las Vegas casino will have hundreds of different "secret" passageways that are only for employees of the establishment. Patrons have absolutely no idea the level of traffic that is directed to these passageways.

After all, customers of the casino really don't want to see the janitor walking through the casino with a pail of water and a mop, so instead, this janitor will use a passageway to get from Point A to Point B.

This is all part of the illusion that casinos creates to take you out of the "real" world and keep you within the walls of their establishment.
