I haven't really had a chance to post anything in the past two weeks so this might be a a long post so bear with me. Last weekend i worked two AM shifts (6:45am- 3:15pm) and this weekend i worked two PM shifts (2:45pm- 11:30pm). Personally i prefer the the PM shifts because you get to deal with a completely different set of people that are more relaxed and are ready to have a good time.
With the AM shift, all i get is the stuff business people who just want to leave and get on with their day. Usually these are the ones who have had a problem with their stay and they always have something to bitch about cause they want to get stuff for free.
During the PM shifts, i have guest checking in and usually all they want to do is get to their rooms and relax. They are much easier to deal with because if they've had a shitty day, they just want you to make it better for them which is something that im perfectly fine with.

Sooo
Its been a really long time since I've posted something but im hoping to change that. Working at the hotel is great but its getting to the point where it is taking over my life. I need to find a way to balance school, work, and hanging out with my friends.
Thus far, the job has been awesome. I've meet and talked to so many people and listening to their stories always amazes me. To this day, the best person that I've meet so far would have to be the Dean of Admissions for the Yale School of Management. The guy was really cool and down to earth and i would have never suspected that he was in such a high position of authority. While i was driving him to the airport we talked about our families, how we got to where we were in life, and about politics. Then when we were saying our goodbyes, he told me to email him my information and that if i ever wanted to go to graduate school, that i would have a place at Yale and proceeded to had me his business card. . I couldn't believe that i had been talking to him the whole time without really knowing who he was. I guess that's why there is that thing called the five feet five second rule where you should always acknowledge someone cause you don't know who they are or what company they could be representing
