http://featherorfoam.blogspot.com/2008/04/hotel-inspectorsno-such-thing-as-free.html
Hotel Management.Why Do I Do This? The Hotel Inspectors.'no such thing as a free lunch! We've been inspected.again. We have a lovely little certificate up on the wall to say that we are worthy of the all the attention, that we are fabulous, that we provide one of the best 'experiences' in Ireland, that we have beds to die for and when you see the bill you probably will, expire that is. Once she had wiped the dead bugs from her horned rimmed glasses, she began stomping around like a bull in a china shop.

Feather or Foam?: Out Of The Mouths Of Babes...
http://featherorfoam.blogspot.com/2008/01/out-of-mouths-of-babes.html
Hotel Management.Why Do I Do This? Out Of The Mouths Of Babes. My son, 7, is a dote, a beautiful child, (stop sticking your fingers down yer throat)! Ok, I'm biased, but he is, his teachers have always complimented me on his good manners, the fact that he loves school, and always works hard. The friends he chooses are nearly always a mirror image of himself, like attracting like. So why is he such a little swine at home? He can't even blame his hormones like I can, bless him. Mum, do you like your job?

Stupid cat woman blocked her sink with cat litter.hello? Sunday, December 30, 2007. How did you manage that? Have a good one. Below shown as * *.

Feather or Foam?: Pigs in Shit.
http://featherorfoam.blogspot.com/2008/01/pigs-in-shit.html
Hotel Management.Why Do I Do This? I have always had issues with staff/managers/anyone without a reservation/ who havent paid a deposit, using the Hotel accommodation, (I fucking hate it) especially on a long term basis. In a previous Hotel, where I was Accommodation Manager, the room attendants would stand in the doorway of our 'live-in' chefs' room and say 'where do we start? But also a chef.eww! This was a 4* establishment. But he was a lovely guy, so he kinda got away with it! You have to go and have...

Feather or Foam?: Personal post...not a guest in sight.
http://featherorfoam.blogspot.com/2008/04/personal-postnot-guest-in-sight.html
Hotel Management.Why Do I Do This? Personal post.not a guest in sight. There is a line in a Counting Crows song that goes;. We only stay in orbit for a moment of time.". It has other connotations, about unrequited love, but whenever I hear it, it always makes me realise how short our time is, and that unless we have done something quite remarkable in our lives, and made a difference, that life will go on, just as before, only our nearest and dearest will notice we have gone. Life for me and mine, has tak...

Feather or Foam?: 'Another Satisfied Customer'
http://featherorfoam.blogspot.com/2008/07/another-satisfied-customer.html
Hotel Management.Why Do I Do This? Hmm, long time no blog. There is never a dull moment in my job, but a combination of my appalling memory, appalling Internet connection, trying to stay sort of anonymous, and age catching up with me means that I don't keep up with the rest of the prolific bloggers who keep telling me off for not writing! Just had *another* birthday.gulp! However much experience you have, whatever the job throws at you, you cannot deny your personality, your morals, or your opinion of di...

Hotel Management.Why Do I Do This? Why can't I have a discount"? Because you're a flatulent greedy bitch that's why). Because Company policy does not allow extra discounts on top of special rates for tour operators". But the special rates are only for the room, not the facilities". You already get nearly 50% off, how fucking greedy can you get? Sorry, I really cannot change Company policy". But I bring you lots of business don't I? Fuck off, fuck off, fuck off, you are really getting on my nerves now, I ...

Feather or Foam?: Suffer The Little Children.
http://featherorfoam.blogspot.com/2008/10/suffer-little-children.html
Hotel Management.Why Do I Do This? Suffer The Little Children. Has posted a most eloquent plea on behalf of St. Catherines School in Wicklow. Click on the title to take you to it, please read it. I would like to urge anyone who sees this, to make a donation, however small, or buy the beautiful Christmas cards produced by the school. If you don't have children, you will find it hard to understand the depth of feeling involved, but please, just think about it, it could be you writing this one day. I love t...

Feather or Foam?: Sweet, indispensable you.....
http://featherorfoam.blogspot.com/2008/03/sweet-indispensable-you.html
Hotel Management.Why Do I Do This? Sweet, indispensable you. How did we all gossip before mobile phones were invented? Text received this morning from an ex colleague."some news for you, R has been sacked, is leaving at end of April.party, party! R is worth a post all of her own, but I would end up confusing myself, as I never could work her out, as GMs go, she is one in a million, thankfully. You would have to be a special kind of sadist to enjoy giving a member of staff their P45, no Manager with an ou...

http://featherorfoam.blogspot.com/2009/11/so-many-changes-so-little-bandwidth.html
Hotel Management.Why Do I Do This? So Many Changes, So Little Bandwidth! Yep, getting on for a year. I could never be accused of being prolific. Blogs come, and thankfully, go. Just lately I have started to examine the benefits of blogging, and I reached the conclusion that they are an invaluable, unique way of recording the mundane, self absorbed trite, and the bullshit that rules our lives. Friday, November 06, 2009. Well, youre more regular than me. November 7, 2009 at 12:52 AM. Kitty likes your mouse!
