A World Dipped - Perhaps Double Dipped - In Madness

Saturday, July 28, 2007 @ 6:42 AM

My shift last night was UTTER CHAOS. I ran around fetching things and answering the phone, which was ringing off the hook, from 11pm to 1am. It was like two hours of the Hotel Employee Olympics, but thank god, it eventually quieted down. There was all kinds of weirdness, including a 3:30am check-out, a 4:00am call for a 9:00am wake-up call, and a guest telling me, quote, "If you get lonely tonight, you just come on down to my room." Unquote.

But the most bizarre and alarming news is this: The co-worker who I suspected of deceit (see previous entry) has been fired. Not just regular-fired, either. "He's No Longer Allowed on the Premises" Fired. I have no details at this time, just burning curiosity.

This likely means that I will be working a lot for the next couple of weeks. They hired a new full-time person, but they haven't trained them. I guess I'll probably end up doing a lot of said training. I've worked there for a month, and now I'm the senior night auditor. It's going to be exhausting and irritating, but hey, I need the money, and it's temporary. They don't know it yet, but by the time the new person is finished training, I'll have given them my two week's notice.

My co-workers and I are quitting the hotel like rats fleeing a sinking ship. I would feel sorry for the general manager, if he weren't such a douchebag.
