Let's be honest
I did it. \o/
I survived my seven days straight of work and today, I am off.
Yesterday was a total clusterfuck at work though. I think it might have been my worst day so far.
Let's review the day in bulletpoints:
- A very angry guest screamed in my face and I almost burst into tears in front of him. All I could do was repeat I'm sorry even though IT WASN'T MY FUCKING FAULT IF THE GENERAL MANAGER COULD NOT SEE HIM. Apparently, you are less than a human when you work in a hotel.
- The new manager wants to change EVERYTHING. She treats everyone like we're in school and don't know shit which, okay, if it had been just the new employees wold have been fine. But she's trying to teach people who have been working here for years how to do their jobs.
A lot of my coworkers are ready to quit.
- It was so busy that we barely had time to do our usual load of paperwork and my duty manager (yeah, we have all kinds of managers there) was getting really pissed off at me because we finished later than usual.
- There were only 2 of us at the front to do a job that would require at least one or two more people. It was terrible. People seemed to have all of the questions.
- When it says check-in time is at 2pm, please, do not all come at 8am expecting us to have a room for you. Seriously. It's not like we can clean a room for you just with a click of our fingers.
In conclusion: FUCK THE CUSTOMERS. FUCK THE NEW MANAGEMENT. FUCK ASSHOLES WHO LIKE TO YELL AT YOU JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE A GIRL IN A UNIFORM.
Ok. Now that this is out of my system, let's talk about this weekend.
I have two days off and I am going to enjoy these A LOT.
I am actually going to this Doctor Who Experience thing this afternoon with one of my oldest LJ friends, the amazing![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
anno_superstar.
Then we're going to Brighton together tomorrow. We haven't seen each other for so long. It's going to be great to hang out again.
I think the last time we hung out was in 2007 (in London too because I was here for an internship).
I just noticed that it's 10am and I need to go in an hour. Which means I need to shower and write as much as I can in less than an hour. Also, maybe have something to eat.
*runs around like a muppet*
