Yeah you'll work your way up I'm sure. I remember when I had a second interview they had some homeless guy come in and they had to pretty much run him outta the building. Pretty funny but I guess you kinda had to be there.

Hey

I worked front desk in a hotel for 4 years..Its really not that great. Too make money, and move up..you have to work downtown in a big hotel or a touristy community..(banff,whistler,etc)

You can move up faster in the housekeeping department then the front desk. Also union hotels are way better!

Its a super fun job, and you get to meet lots of people..but I noticed its hard to move up.

Good luck!!

word about workin in hotels...
I went for an interview once at some hotel where my parents live...the hours were bullshit and they only pay $9/hr.
wtf...

and to add insult to injury they were like " Oohhh you cant have your hair two tone..it needs to only be one colour and tied back "

WHAT?!!!!

k , nobody tells me what to do with my hair lol.....
9/hr is bad enough , but then to tell me I gotta dye it one colour...They better send me to the best fuckin salon in town if you want me to dye my hair over haha.
(it had blonde streaks in it..nothing obscene...)

They're thinking about doing something like that at my office... I don't think it will go over well. I don't dye my hair but a whole bunch of people that work there dye hair all kinds of crazy colours. I don't see it passing though.

kAyB · #**487** (**permalink**) Jan 11, 07

i wanna dye my hair again.. blah..

Erin · #**488** (**permalink**) Jan 11, 07

I have virgin hair :)

Ista · #**489** (**permalink**) Jan 11, 07

Erin .

OH MAN!!! Dude , if they told me to keep my hair tame at work , Id tell them they can shove a box of dye up their asses!!
Fully!! Im way to expensive for them to lose...my old company tried pulling that shit.
" Uh...Farrah , we have clients coming in...could you possibly dye your hair one colour ? "

" WHAT?!!...I rack you guys in 200k+ a month. Lick my ass. I can afford to walk in here with parrot hair! Im the best shit in here! What you gonna do? Fire me?! YOU NEEEEED ME!! "

...and then they left me alone...lol

Ista · #**490** (**permalink**) Jan 11, 07

Oh and PS.

This was like a few days after I was at the salon getting a $200 hair cut , style and dye by a master stylist.

Bahahaha!!! We get that shit when clients come in. :Everyone QUICK!! Take everything off your desks!! Clean them!! Dress nice, wear a suit, ladies dress up!!" Etc etc..

You should see the tattoos, piercings and hair that we have in our office. I work on the most important porfolio in the office, something tells me if I wanted to dye my hair, I could. I don't think they are gonna do that though, tooooo many people would be upset.

I'm really lucky. I have VERY soft hair because of this. So now I just make it a point to keep it that way.

LOL Oh man....I know I used to run my AMEX team....and I had multiple piercings on my face and tri coloured hair at the time...but I was in a business suit...

anyway , my mangers buzzes me and he's like " You have 30 seconds to make yourself not look like a circus freak , because you got about 5 VIP's from your portfolio , walking towards you from about 50 feet. bye. "

I was like aww fuck...so yeah , I did an arm sweep across my desk and somehow managed to disassemble 6 piercings from my head and pull my hair back , and make like I was just on a call.

Fuck dude...its like those random army drills or fire drills you got in elementary school.
lol

waking up at six is a different thing for me.

on another note i had some guy from agassiz threaten to find out where our office is located so he could "knock my lights out" if i called his wife again. the damn bitch wouldn't verify her DOB and got pretty uptight. i offered the guy our address but he was too busy yelling at me to pay any attention. i'm going to call them again tomorrow.
