I came to a realization that makes the world make more sense recently. that realization is that just about everyone is an idiot. like 98.9% of everybody just barely functioning animal... that is all.


Guest: What time does breakfast open? *while looking at the breakfast room lights on doors opened while people are in their eating.*


Ugh no one saw fit to tell me the elevator was out of order. feel like that was important information to share...

Ugh almost made a new alias "highly annoyed vidmaster7* just for this one.

Just checked in a top tier guest they went to their room and found someone in it. I'm sold out so I have to send them to another hotel and pay for their stay refund their stay here and figure out WHO TF is in that room because the room is under the name of the guy I just walked which makes no sense. Me and 2nd shift are gonna have it out.


3 day weekend -_-


Almost walked out on my job yesterday. After telling my boss the following morning that we were completely out of coffee their was none purchased this morning. Now if you don't work at a hotel you may not understand how big a deal this is... So I'm completely out of everything but decaf expecting to get murdered by guests... Texted both managers. no help. at least not for my shift. This is a trend to we are always out of everything and nothing is done about it.


Well that was freaking weird.

Dudes like hey I was going to pay in cash but I decided to pay with the card instead.
so I look it up and we have his card on file ready to go.

I tell him yeah I have your card on file already.
HE says you have my card? can I see it?
I say I have your number here are you saying you gave 2nd shift your physical card?
him :yeah yeah yeah.
ok I look where 2nd would of put it if 2nd had done something like that and nothing
Him: Oh I have the card here sorry I handed it to him and I thought he kept it.
(at this point I have the guy firmly placed as a kook)
Him: So do you need the card?
me: No sir I have the card number right here already.
him: Is it like a picture or something?
me: no sir we just copied the card number and expiration date.
him: oh ok that's fine then and he walked off.
That entire conversation was completely and utterly pointless.


I figured out what it is. Their is a freakin political rally tomorrow in GA.


Gir, would you please stop singing?


Whew the mighty dumb ones almost break me.

me: Checking out?'
him: yeah I don't know room. (while handing me his room key)
ME: look at room key packet that has room number on it. sigh

ME: opening breakfast
Same guy: Standing in front of clearly labeled coffee dispensers. Is their coffee?
Me: *summons all willpower I posses* yes *and look at containers.*


Ugh some fool trying to talk politics at work and is convinced that the awful orange is still going to win the election. You know the one that is over.


I really wish I had an argument for that...


I think we are heading into wave 3 now and I guess we are waiting till the death toll gets to a certain point to do anything about it? IDFK


OMG having to stand around and listen to this lady complain about other hotels under our brand that she stayed at. Lady I really don't care.

Our local Walmart was shut down. apparently someone with covid came in without a mask mind you and infected 30 people. They had to close it down the employee are having to stay home for 2 weeks (best case) You know Walmart won't be paying sick leave or anything. They are doing a deep clean the opening back up. They actually might have opened up again already.

We still have like half the people running around with no precautions. SIGH...

Recording of Roy: Hullo, IT

Caller: I'm having some trouble with my computer

Recording of Roy: Have you tried turning it off and on again?

Caller: no...

Recording of Roy: Try turning it off and on again.

Caller: *delays a few seconds* ok, its back on

Recording of Roy: Did that fix it?

Caller: Yeah it did. Cheers mate!

Seriously, most of my friends are in IT, most of my players, and those who aren't understand tech and programming a million times more than I do. Hopefully all of your Fridays get better!

You got it a bit wrong:

Recording of Roy: Have you tried turning it off and on again?

Caller: no...

Recording of Roy: Try turning it off and on again.

Caller: *delays a few seconds* ok, its back on

Recording of Roy: Did you actually do it?

Caller: What do you mean? Of course I did?

Recording of Roy: Well my server logs right here show that you're still connected, you never lost connectivity, and so you never rebooted.

Caller: Are you calling me a liar?

Recording of Roy: I'm saying that according to the evidence I have that you never rebooted your computer, but you just told me you did. I can't help you if you won't do what I ask you to do.

Caller: <Hangs up and complains to Roy's manager. Roy is forced to physically go to caller's location and reboot the system himself, all while being verbally abused by caller for being an ********>

Yeah I would not last long on that job.

me: I'll be right their to assist you *grabs brass knuckle*


Ugh coworker saying her paycheck wasn't correct worries me now I have to meticulously inspect mine to make sure they didn't miss some of my overtime that resulted from them coming in late...

Joy... and you know they can't stay home... oh they are starting schools again aren't they?


Lady panicking because she couldn't find her wallet wanted me to wake up 2nd shift person at 5:30 AM to see if she saw it even after I checked lost and found. Told her to search her room again before I call. She found it immediately in her room. sigh people.


-_-

My top technician and I had to be in the office on Tuesday due to needing to deal with both in=office equipment and getting some new laptops prepped for some remote users.

On Wednesday he told me he had to get a COVID test due to symptoms that showed up on Wednesday.

Today he got the results and he's good. No COVID.

*PHEW*

glad you dodged that bullet.

We have had similar scares (my step-son's father carpool buddy had been exposed - both confirmed negative). Several friends who are HC workers have had co-workers confirm positive (no surprise, but so far all our friends are still testing negative).

I think I am up to 10 people I know who have confirmed positive. One death, although as I think I said here before...she was 95 or so.

stay safe. be smart. wash hands. wear your mask.

Yeah, when I called in to get the warranty repair job on the fridge, I had the typical "conversation with a Texan about the virus". "Oh, no; I won't wear a mask. They're too uncomfortable, and it's too hot around here. And I'm healthy, so I don't have to worry. But I really feel bad for all the people with compromised immune systems who can't leave their homes."

Er... yeah.

If you weren't so d***ed selfish to refuse to put up with a little discomfort to help them out, then maybe they could leave their homes. Heck, if we'd all pulled together and just listened to the doctors we'd likely be in decline right now instead of in a second surge.

*SIGH*

[/tirade]

EDIT: And while I realize that at this point the most logical course of action for the U.S. is to just continue slowly re-opening and allowing the virus to run its course through our population (it's become obvious we can't handle anything requiring any more personal responsibility on the part of our populace), considering that Houston is already near or at capacity and Southern California is already sending ICU patients to Northern California for treatment, that...

You can take off the mildly for this one.

So to preface My SO volunteers at the zoo and our county or at least the one the zoo is in finally passed a required mask law for businesses. So the Zoo requires the masks now. Apparently people were complaining and talking about boycotting the Zoo for requiring masks. I just full on am sick of these people. The whole south just full of complete idiots.

So our company cut my managers salary by 20% because every corporate business is one bad day from going under because of stupid crap like taking out mortgages on their own buildings to build more buildings rinse repeat. one domino falls they all fall kind of crap. The funny thing to me tho is that they expect that to have any impact on their bottom line what so ever. that little bit of money means nothing to them but will impact employees life greatly. Frankly I'd rather the corporation close down then take a pay cut myself. I'm already late on my yearly raise by a month. It's retroactive supposedly but we will see If I have to start some trouble once things get back to normal.

Always getting told to plan ahead and prepare for hard times but just about every single company is ready to go under after their first bad week.

UGh Went to change our lobby TV noticed fox news was on and I won't be having that if I can help it. The short moment i caught it on they were demanding to reopen schools and saying closing schools for covid is dumb. So My instincts were correct about changing the channel.


UGH So we have digital keys you just touch the card to the little door sensor and boom.
that said
Guest: My keys not working.
Me: Lets take a look. I touch key to sensor works like a charm. I watch him try it he doesn't put the card close enough. So instead of I don't know using your brain for any level of problem solving like IDK maybe just holding the key closer you walk back to the desk to have me show you something that a chimp can do.


Old lady traveling with her old friend to have a good old time. yes for recreational purposes from Florida of course. caution to the wind. Also had to tell me about her religion too within a 5 minute conversation.


Guest: How do I get to the 200 rooms?
ME glad I'm wearing my mask so my face doesn't show my annoyance: 2nd floor...

Ugh. Here in Dallas, Mark Cuban (owner of the Dallas Mavericks) paid to send secret shoppers into 300 local shops and restaurants, and found that a whopping 96% of them were not following infection control guidelines. He's taken a ridiculous amount of heat locally for "sitting in his ivory tower, trying to cause trouble". Because Texas.
. . . . . . . . .

That is ridiculous this is not the time to be doing that.

(you can mark off the mildly for this one)

Dragon con is the one I expect to see then continue with. GA is like No.1 on the lets hurry up and get rid of all the dead so we can go back to making money.


Just found out like 5 of the rooms are old women that are part of some religious group. I remember them from last year actually. So the trip is not important. It's like a vacation thing. Sigh.

Teaching old people simple things about technology. SIGH!

Currently how to sign in to their email. (kill me now please.)

He doesn't know what site he needs to go to to log into his email. he doesn't know if it's hotmail gmail etc. It's probably a company email How am I suppose to know his companys website login info? This guy probably makes 10 times what I make too. Unbelievable.


Tn is suppose to be opening up businesses that were closed down again like tomorrow or next week. We get to see how wave 2 goes...

Yeah. I once sat in on a game where they did standard exp and if you died you started over at level 1 so two 12th level 1 7th and 1 first level. It was one of the worst games I ever had the misfortune of watching. The 1st barb went through a door that was meant for one of the 12ths and was instantly disintegrated. So he had to make another character right after making that one. The other weird thing is it was a ship battle and the guy took 20 minutes to roll for every single npc involved in the battle.

I was so glad I wasn't playing because I was frustrated enough just from watching.

My guests at the hotel have reminded me that if your trying to avoid covid use your card rather then cash when you can. They don't but they are also traveling right now so It's not terribly surprising.

Hello, everyone.

I'm sad, right now. The nearest movie theater to me got sold. Nearly every movie that I've seen between June of '16 and now was seen there.
So, what will the new owners do? They're going to tear it down and put a dog park in the plot. Please pardon the language, but these people have lost their f@!~ing minds!

Just straight up time to move.


Yeah that is probably gonna happen... sigh....

Technically spells with incapacitation do still work but basically higher level enemies get moved up one step for their saves. So their not the best but they are not useless.

Also don't go around saying such and such is worse then 4th edition cause we all know that is crap. (Like how I also said it like it was a statement of fact?)

Ugh old people. Wanted to see the room before they got it. fine walked him down to the room so he could look at it. Then said looks fine to me but my wife is gonna probably want to look too. So a second trip down for them. I had people waiting in line BTW.


half an hour over at work again...


I hate when someone I'm talking to dismisses a well thought out argument without reading it because it's either doesn't agree with them or is too much work for them to read. It's rude and frustrating, but it does however make me realize their not worth talking too. It's confirmation bias at its finest really.
