It was an interesting night... It is still Bike Week... who ever came up with this name needs a new job or more education... because it has been going on for more than a week... really! Not that I am complaining, it is keeping me entertained :)
When i got to work there were still some rooms available so that was good, that ment I would have something to do besides clean... I love that... However... that also ment that I would have to deal with DAFI people that do not understand that I am given a "room rate" that is the standard rate that I have to charge... Now, the later in the night that it is I can drop that rate a little, but if you act like a big ol' dick to me, I won't, but if you are nice to me, then I will... this is where your "Did your Momma teach you any manners" skills come in to play... I can NOT drop that rate to $30 when the rate was originally $59.95... But if you have 7 people and I have a room that has 4 beds in it that is going for $109.95 and you have shown up at 2am... well.. I can drop that rate to $89.95... not to bad... and after tax it is only just over $100... that BTW works out to about $14 per person... not to bad of you are polite and use your people skills... but if you are a dick then I won't drop the rate, and you will pay that extra $20... that really isn't to much to pay between 7 people... but $20 is $20 people... that is a case and a half of beer if you are getting the cheap stuff... Soooo... Lets all keep this in mind the next time you roll into town and are looking for a hotel... shall we??? Because that 3rd shift person COULD just tell you that they are full and send you on your way to go to the expensive hotel where you can hope to find something that will cost less than $150 a night... hhhmmm...
ok.. next :)
I have a stack of Pepsi's behind my front desk... YES you can have one.. as a matter of fact, you can have one for each and every person that is staying in your room... just ask... please... you don't have to call me Darling, Huny, Sweety, or anything else! Wow... did you all talk to that guy that was here the other night?? The infamos "Sugarballs"? Maybe I shouldn't have been so nice to him... I think I should go add him to the list of players in my hotel.. The new nickname for anybody that has a big enough set to continually call me terms of endearment is now "Sugarballs"... No... I will not be calling them that to their face, I like my job to much, but I will be thinking it in my head, and I will be smiling :)
Yes... By all means Swim... I can't see you in that pool... and as long as you are not loud and obnoxious and dissturbing to the other guests I will not have to ask you to get out... however... don't drowned... I can't swim that well. BUT... If you ask me if you can swim.. I am going to make you say "You are the best 3rd shift worker EVER" before I tell you that you can swim... and then I will also tell you not to be loud, obnoxious, and don't dissturbe the other guests, because then I will have to make you get out..
Why would you come in here and give me a credit card that doesn't work? Did you REALLY not know? Or where you just hoping it would work?? lol... yeah.. you didn't know.. but you will pay cash and call the card company in the morning, you are just tired right now and you want to get into a room... Ok... whatever :)
The infomercial of the night was about Free Money... who doesn't want free money?? All you have to do is buy this Book!!! And the guy that you are buying it from isn't making ONE SINGLE PENNY!!! Yeah... he is just making lots of dollars... I am sure!!! That book will tell you have to find all kinds of free money online.. hhmmm... sign me up... I want free money! send me that book... but wait... if you have to pay for the book, that means it isn't really free... right??? I feel like this isn't right... ? .... hhmmm... I will have to think about this one... And yes.. I am still laughing about "You'll love my nuts!"
My night was filled with interesting people, I had:
Tweeker guy... he had 2 teenage boys with him, they all went swimming, then his boys went to bed and he wandered about the hotel for the rest of the evening... acting like he was on drugs... hence the name "Tweeker" guy
Then we had the 7 bikers that came in.. 6 guys and 1 lady.. Very polite... All of them... They got a room that had 4 beds, and the room was actually 2 rooms stuck together so she got to have her own room, she was very greatful, she said they all snore..lol.. there was 1 bed in a separate room and 3 bed in the other room... she was laughing at them when they brought their stuff in...
A group of older teens and young twentys that were going to Cedar point the following day... they wanted to know if they were still allowed to have the Pepsi cans, because they had already bought there tickets online so they didn't need them for the discount.. I told them they could have them if they told me I was the best 3rd shift worker ever... they did... so I gave them enough pepsi for each of them... after that every time one of them walked past, they told me I was the best 3rd shift worker ever :) I swear they were moving in here, because they make like 5 trips out to the vehicle to get stuff to bring in...
There is a couple of "Cute" bikers staying at the hotel... the other 2 girls that work here told me about them... and when they did I wondered about the gender of these bikers... Well... I finally saw them... about 3am these 2 cute little guys come wondering in... just cute as a bug they were... I would guess they might about about 22 -25 years old... Dressed in the classic Bad Boy attire, bandanas on their heads, wearing leather, tanned, all that kind of stuff... I just KNOW this is who the girls were talking about... They paused for a moment by the front desk and said "Hello, we are going to bed now, have a lovely evening"... What??? Ok.. Polite, Clean, Good looking, Cute as a Bug, and they did not bring any girls back with them... hhmmm... Ok... I'm going to leave this one alone.. maybe... cause they kind of set my alarm off... just a little... LOL... Then again.. it was only Friday night... maybe they were just weighting their options for the weekend.. because we must not forget, it is Bike Week (or Bike Week and a half bordering on 2 weeks)
There was a guy that stayed at TBHTEW since Wednesday, I think he was checking out today. He was very friendly, he has 2 daughters that are my age, and he stops and days Hello every morning when he gets coffee. He was in the Canadian Navy for some time (I think it was called something else, but I don't remember) and then he worked for a car making company, but he retired a few years back... he was talkative...but nice, so that is ok :)
Charlie is still out there having a great time with all the flyers:) I think he may end up getting so big that he can't fit in his hidey hole if he keeps eating like he does... I guess we will see ;p
I believe that may be all for today... not like that isn't enough I think this may be the longest one yet.. but there were a few charactures in last night... wow...
Latter folks...
ps... spell check isn't working today for some reason... so I may have to come back later and spell check this thing.. I hope it isn't to bad...lol

I agree with buying the book makes the money not free. it's like you need to "Call" the phone company to get a phone. WTF? if I had a phone to call you I wouldn't need to call you! LOL
