I am sorry. You ok?![]()
I am letting you know I love it. I have always been a night owl and I applied specifically for third shift at the hotel.
I am thinking I will be sad when I must leave it some day in order to take care of kids when I get married in the future. I am well aware that shift is not compatible with raising a family. All the more reason to enjoy it now I guess! Haha.
I would LOVE that job!
(I think)
(I mean: I am sure I would LOVE that job!)
I am asking how you keep busy when you aren't checking in guests. I had the chance to apply for that shift a few months ago at a local hotel, but I'm a night owl who loves the daytime too much.
I am fortunate to have access to the internet. I can go through my emails, talk about TV shows on various forums, read fanfiction, chat with my friends an yahoo messenger.
Don't get me wrong I do work! lol When I get in at 10:30 pm I can have anywhere from 2 arrivals left to 40 arrivals coming in yet. It just depends on what groups are staying with us and how packed we are. Our hotel is literally connected to an Oneida casino so I get people coming up at all times of the night or early morning- the poker tables close at 4am- to get a room.) And with an airport across the street lots of corporate groups/conferences stay with us. During the wintertime I get a lot of people who have no reservation but don't want to drive home on the icy roads after a night in the casino. So yeah, especially friday and saturday nights. It's busy! (often times with drunks- yuck!- especially when we have wedding parties staying with us)
But during the week? On a tuesday night? I can spend maybe 2 hours on actual work in my 8 hour shift and the rest of the time I just need to fill. I like it though...I mean how often does one get to enjoy time online and get paid to do it?
Not a lot of people want these night shift but it is just perfect for me!![]()
