The casino management would be PERFECTLY happy if the pros just
disappeared, and their advertising attracted only recreational
players. This is a very different situation from more ordinary jobs.
The management of the company I work for, as well as the customers,
would NOT be happy if I disappeared. The management willing pays me
to do my job because they think I'm doing something of value to them.
Likewise with the customers who patronize the company: they value the
service I help to provide, and therefore willingly make the purchases
that ultimately pay my wages.
The people who make the gambling pro's job possible (the casino
management and patrons) are at best indifferent to them. None of
these people would care if the pros disappeared. None of them feel
that the pro is providing something of value to them. This makes the
job of a gambling pro very different from other jobs.
