so some of you may or may not know, that i did finnally get a new job, about a month or so ago. it's at the Travel Centers of America in Troutdale, i do housekeeping. well shortly after i started i talked to my boss and told him i was interested in the bookkeeping job that was open (SOOOO sick of housekeeping) he told me that i can do some filing and small jobs, untill he finds some one to replace me in housekeeping, i said ok. well i haven't really been able to do too much of the filing and what-not cause either they haven't had anything for me, or Lorena (the other housekeeper) hasn't been there, cause something happened with her mom and she had to go to mexico for a week. so i've been doing it by myself and haven't had time to do anything for them.
well aside from that, Lorena has the weekends off, and i have tue, and wend. off. well, i'll just say this....WEEKENDS SUCK ASS!!! i have to be there at frickin 8am. NO ONE that stays in this hotel gets up that early! and i really don't have anything else to do, so i sit around like a frickin lump not doing a damn thing. and it's SERIOUSLY frustrating. i really don't see why i have to be there that early. i've tried talking to my manager about it, but he wants me there that early, for god knows why...i can't stand it, it's a waste of MY time and THEIR money. i don't see the point. i really don't. maybe ONE day on the weekend, cause i only get between 3-5 hours on either of the weekend days. so why not cluster that all into ONE day? say sunday? all we have to do is make sure all the rooms are cleaned on friday and they'll have plenty of rooms to rent for the next couple days. there are more people who stay during the week than the weekend anyways since it's a truck stop and not a regular hotel...but i mean, wouldn't that make more sense?
