New Job - Pros & Cons
Thursday, June 14, 2007 @ 7:16 AM
PROS -
* Between about 2:30am when the bookkeeping is finished, until about 4 or 5am when the newspapers arrive, there's nothing to do but watch TV, read, play Solitaire, etc.
* All the coffee and tea you can drink. And it's good coffee.
* 11pm-7am is much easier to adjust to than 9-5am.
* Minimal contact with actual guests.
* No contact with supervisor. Essentially one's own boss.
CONS -
* Money's not great. Less than $9/hr.
* Guests are sometimes creepy and/or hostile.
* Being on one's feet about half the shift (4 hours, not consecutive).
* The knowledge that one works for a completely Republican corporation founded by religious zealots. (Two, actually.)
* Having to dress up. The new uniforms may require me to wear a skirt and hosiery. Which is just wrong.

Well hell yes. The hotel is therefore vastly superior to the hell that was Best Buy.
