I've been there before and I deserve a little more

Wow!! Today has been HECTIC.

First off I got asked to arrive early, so I did. And then I had nothing to do for an hour whilst I waited for the top two rooms to be emptied of guests, after which I cleaned and re-made them for the next guests with Claire. And then another hour of waiting around for room 2 to finish being BUILT so we could clean that and make the beds and put in all the added extras we needed. But we had lunch before working on that ;] and THEN we had to wait about 2 hours to do the same to room one. However, we had guests that were meant to be arriving at 5pm to both room 1 and 2! Thankfully they all arrived in the right order, and late. So even though room 1 wasn't ready til 5.30pm we were okay!

To be fair I haven't exactly done a lot today, but what has been done in the building is incredible, everyone has worked so hard (with the exception of a grumpy few today!) to get this all done - when I arrived this morning I thought there was no way we would have anything done we needed, and I am so proud of the team that helped deliver it! Just wish it'd be recognised that I've also been waiting for years for this to happen, not just the volunteers that have been 'building' it. As David said to me earlier - it's their baby, they've been working on it for 7 years. I'm sorry, have I been sitting around here working for FUN for the last 6 years? No. I wanted to run the hotel. That's what I want my job to be. It's not like I haven't invested a lot in it, too!

And when he starts listening to other people, the better things will be. Or when he doesn't get his job when he applies for it. Oh lord I hope he doesn't. We'll be doomed. People management is NOT his strong point.

Oh well. Good times ahead, of what I wanted to be doing finally coming through. Except it means I'll be working 20 days straight. Bring on those few days off. Mmmm, drinking...
