Mystery Guest Alert: October 2007
http://mysteryguestalert.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 29, 2007. Congratulations to everyone who enjoyed their weekend, and particularly loved that extra hour that they could spend in bed! Or alternatively, were able to stay up partying for even longer! What a fantastic invention 'Daylight Savings' is! However, amidst your celebrations, spare a thought for us night workers. People like myself and the 'Night Warden'. People who, instead of having an extra hour in bed or partying, spent an extra hour AT WORK. Thursday, October 25, 2007. 1) Go t...

Mystery Guest Alert: February 2008
http://mysteryguestalert.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
Sunday, February 17, 2008. Joy of joys, I had the dubious privilege of working this Valentine's Day. On a personal level, I'm not too bothered by this. My girlfriend told me she didn't want to take it too seriously and so didn't want a large fuss. This was clearly a lie, but by working Valentine's Day I managed to juggle my days off to match hers so she's happy (because now I can make a bigger fuss over it). On a professional level, I don't like working Valentine's Day. And here's why;-. Sexist and stere...

Mystery Guest Alert: December 2007
http://mysteryguestalert.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 10, 2007. Another hard week at the hotel. Weddings everywhere, and not a bag of change in sight. Silly reception manager. There's a saying going round the hotel that you can tell how long someone has worked there by looking at their face. The more bags under the eyes, crows feet, and stress lines on the forehead, the longer the term of service. One of the bar staff informed me that I look like a zombie. I scare him when I appear in the hallways or behind the bar -. I have just finished u...

Mystery Guest Alert: September 2007
http://mysteryguestalert.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 26, 2007. BE WARNED, THIS POST CONTAINS SOME DIRECT QUOTES THAT ARE OFFENSIVE AND GRAPHIC* *. A few days ago, I actually managed to meet a man who made me ashamed to be British. This guy was a member of the armed forces, and over the course of the night had got chatting with some American businessmen -. As the bar was dead, and I had nothing to do for a while, the Americans threw a chair at me and told me to sit down and join the conversation. About halfway through the conversation, ...

Mystery Guest Alert: My Secret
http://mysteryguestalert.blogspot.com/2008/01/my-secret.html
Thursday, January 31, 2008. Ah bless, word has filtered back to me about a little incident at my previous hotel. Apparantly, at around 3am, my replacement received a page telling him that someone was at the front door. When he opened it, 2 very skimpily dressed young women rushed in. They were chatting excitedly, until one of them looked at him and said;-. Wait, you're not D! You totally sure there's not a tawdry story behind that? Good luck with your new job.

Mystery Guest Alert: May 2007
http://mysteryguestalert.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 27, 2007. In one of my first posts. I gave examples of some of the strange things people ask me. Some of these are due to people not listening to me, being too drunk to understand me, or just having some very odd notions about what kind of service we are willing to provide. One group of guests managed to excel themselves, and provide me with the most trying service I've had so far. These were my arabic guests. For drinks, they wanted juice. For starters, they wanted melon. Call me crazy, but ...

Mystery Guest Alert: My Absence
http://mysteryguestalert.blogspot.com/2008/01/my-absence.html
Saturday, January 26, 2008. Ah, a prolonged absence, I know. I'd like to say I've been busy. I have been on holiday, and I have been taking exams as part of my university course. However, this does not mean that I have been busy. In truth, I have been remarkably. UN-busy. You see. I quit my job at the hotel and due to 'anonymity's sake' have to leave posts somewhat haphazard to protect myself. Well, sometimes it's best to walk away, I should know! I hope you find something soon. View my complete profile.
