I think dealers depend on tips for most of their money.

Valet parking jobs in Vegas are next to impossible to get because valets make so much money.  Usually to get that job you have to know someone really high up at the casino or pay someone to get the job.  Cocktail waitress jobs are easier to come by because they always need so many of them but they will start you off working on-call as an extra person so you might not work everyday.

The other jobs mentioned such as Race & Sports writer or cashier, they only make around $9-10 an hour.  The only way you will get benefits at the casino is if you're in a union position which race & sports and cashiers are not.  The people that work in the restaurants or housekeeping are the union people.  Some cocktail waitress are too but not all of them.

The best jobs in Vegas:
 
Banquet bartender/server at a big casino. Huge $ . Gratuity is set before you start your shift. So if a big convention comes in from say Microsoft, there will be 30 bartenders /servers working 5-6 hours chopping up a $15,000 tip/fee plus your $17 bucks an hour.
Bottom line you are making about $225K a year to open bud lights if you work enough shifts.
 
Limo driver: Make about $200 a night driving and another $500 a night if you know what you are doing.
 
Stripper: No need to explain this one. The top ones make up to half a million a year.
 
Union bartender: Nice gig if you are in a good/busy hotel. You get your $18 bucks an hour and if youare hustling you can make anywhere between $200-$500 a night.
 
Doorman at nightclub: Impossible job to get. Every one of them are on the take and make between $1000- $2500 a night. Yup...a night.
 
Cocktail server: Gotta be good looking with fake bombs to make the real $ , but in the right casino they make about $150k a year.
 
Bartender at a local gaming bar: Locals out here are great. Treat them well and it comes back ten fold. Most of them tip 10% of what they win for the night. Pay out 4-5K through the course of the night to the right people ,plus all your other tips and its a fun and easy way to make 120K a year working 4 days a week.
 
Construction: No matter how bad this country is doing they are ALWAYS building in Vegas. Thousands of workers working 24/7 in this town.
 
Bartender/Cocktail server at a top nightclub: Just through sheer volume you are gonna make $500 a night. And the girls who do bottle service make even more. They make about $60 for every bottle they bring.....do the math. Most of them do about 15 bottles a night. A cool $900 a night for looking pretty.
 
Thats off the top of my head....if I can think of a few more I  will post later.
