Continental Breakfast

       Alright, surely everyone has been to a hotel or motel that has continental breakfast served. But what is it with people that aren't happy with free food? Sure it's not bacon, eggs, steak, pancakes, waffles, and some other things that require a full cook staff to serve! The hotel/motel I work at is pretty cheap, for a weekday a single runs at most 59.95 on a weekend during the on season! And during off season the same room is 44.95. I have had more complaints lately because we don't have a full breakfast. "You think this is a continental breakfast! Where are the eggs and pancakes?" Sorry sir, this ain't yo' momma's house, and if it were, I'm sure she's slap the shit out of you for bitching about free fucking food. Just to let you know, we carry: Doughnuts, cereal, bagels, bread (white and wheat), honeybuns, doughnut holes, cinnamon mini doughnuts, milk, juice, and of course coffee. So is anything wrong with that? Hell sometimes if they're on sale, I'll get muffins just for the fuck of it.

     And yes I know it's free, but I hate when they bring their kids in. Little Timmy gets a whole fuckin' doughnut and can't finish it and throws 9/10 of it away. Yeah I know, "who'd eat a partially eaten doughut?" Well I finish off alot of our kid's meals. I hate being wasteful. I put fucking doughnut holes out for this very reason. Your little brat of a child can't stuff a whole fucking doughnut, give them the holes please. And you know how many little fuckers they send by themselves up here?! If I were into stealing little kids and selling them, I would have bought this place after the first year.

    Another fucking sucky thing, you know those cereal dispensers? Yeah, you know how many world class smart asses I have that can't figure those out? Oh yeah, more than you think. I have to constantly go in there and politely show them how to turn a freggin' knob. Even says, "Turn knob to agitate." With little arrows that point up on top. But no, these assholes feel the need to beat, shake, and throw the fucking thing around. And not to be rude to anyone from the surrounding areas, but please stop being stupid. Just stop. It really is heartberaking knowing that you're in my rooms procreating SOMETHING that'll be just as moronic as you.

    So any suggestions on what else to serve here? I have aready asked my boss if we could do the whole waffle thing. I'm thinking about doing it without his permission for a weekend and get everyone to write about how good it was (oh I'm good about getting guests to do that!) But in a lighter note, I really would like to hear from anybody about this!

    And since this about the place I work I'll go ahead and say this, if you make a reservation for anything anywhere you will be charged for not being there. Simple right? Nope, not 'round these here parts! We have a policy that if you want to cancel you have to give us 24 hour notice prior to your arrival. Try doing that with a cruise line! And what about a doctor's office? Yup, I'm quite sure you get charged a fee for not coming in. Basically, in case you don't know, this make us loose money. If I have 4 rooms reserved for one person and they put up their credit card and say "Why yes I will be there!" then by god they better show! I hold a room, if the credit card is good, until 6 am the following morning. Trust me, I would really want to sell the room if you were coming, hell if you told me I could do it. But since I waited so long and you never came, I am now out 4 rooms I could have sold. Yes, I'm going to be rude to you on the phone about it, I have caught enough flak from MY boss about it. Plus this makes you seem like a deadbeat. If you feel you can't make it, try holding the room on just your promise. "Hold me a room! I'm David. No, no credit card, only cash for me! Well I don't have one cause I have terrible credit! No I never go through with anything I say I am." Fuck you dead beat...fuck you.

     Oh another side note, we use Mexicans as housekeepers. No not illegals, they must have all papers or they don't work here. Granted they might not speak and understand english, but they are a better worker than any white, black, yellow, brown, shit even blue people.  Sorry, sad fact. I'd love to hire a bunch of pretty white girls that were all blonde with big tits, but they would never get anything clean. I have one mexican girl today that is doing one whole half block by herself. That's 10 rooms I have her doing deep cleaning duties. Defrost all fridges, clean all trim, clean EVERYTHING in the bathrooms. vacuum under all beds, clean under everything, just basically cleaning all rooms entirely. Then I have this old white woman that's been here for about a month wanting a raise. This Mexican girl has worked here for about 2 months now and is happy to work at all! So you tell me who I want to clean for me? Yeah thought you'd see it my way.

Wow, sounds like a lot of pent up workplace aggression unleashed into one blog! I will admit I don't know the first thing about hotel management. But even if you were to raise the room rates by just a couple bucks and hire an omelet guy, I'm sure people would still bitch that he's using the wrong color eggs or something. Oh and- stay away from blue people as employees. I heard they goof off all day.

The place I stay at on the weekends visiting my husband has oatmeal as well. You use the hot water that you would have set out for tea. The kids love it and it's a healthier alternative than the donuts. lol

Yeah I have considered oatmeal, I even have some for myself. But I know we can't afford boxes after boxes...next time I'm at Sam's I'll see if I can find some in bulk but packaged for individual use. Thanks Jeep

+1 for a class-A rant. Now tell me what hotel you work for so I can stay the fuck out of it... ;-)

I stayed at a place that had waffle mix and a little waffle iron with whipped cream, it was a great idea. Plus you could probably count on the little punks burning themselves for an added bonus--just make sure you put up a big sign that says 'WARNING HOT IRON' so you don't get sued!

Meh, I think the sign out front that says, DON'T BE AN IDIOT would suffice. And we're a great hotel! I just think every night of how I would slip in the room and kill you quietly.
