I did volunteer, so I really can't complain too much. I should be back to just 5 days a week regularly now as my full-time evening person is back from vacation. Plus since my one staff member is not in school she is covering weekend overnight shifts for a couple weeks, so I actually have morning shifts tooNo prob man
The new hires have been hot garbage, I've hired two new people 2.5 weeks ago and fired both of them because they had no desire to work. Hired another a week ago and I think I will be letting her go too as she has already missed 2 shifts. I hired a second last week as well, but she is out of town for a month and won't start until the 19th, but she knows the industry and I got her from another hotel so I am not concerned with her. I am thinking I will just bide my time until she starts and all will be good I am sure.
Also when the new girl starts in the middle of next month I am going to start scheduling myself for office shifts, so I can actually focus on the sales aspects of my job for a change. I have had to neglect that and allow business to come to us since I have been so busy covering for being short staffed.

Nice. I didn't think people in the hotel industry poached other employees haha! We were actually just talking about it on a corporate level this week at work.
Sounds like things may settle down for you in the near future. Hopefully that works out before you turn into Norman Bates haha

I actually didn't mean to poach her, I offered her a position without knowing she was working at another hotel
I interviewed her a while back and I almost hired her then, in fact I really really wanted to but didn't have enough hours available for her and another person and at that time her availability didn't match with what I needed as much as the other candidate I wanted to hire so I went that direction. Since I had her resume on file still I thought what the hell and I gave her a call and asked if she was still looking, she said she had found something but if our offer was more than x hours and y wage she would leave and come to work for us, it wasn't until after she mentioned it was another hotel.

Actually now that I think of it, my sister works in the hotel industry (the kitchen) and was poached from another hotel hahaha
She works as a pastry assistant in the kitchen. She used to work for one hotel but didn't feel she got to do anything creative and went to another hotel because they promised they'd let her try creative things and the pay was better. After about a year at the new hotel, she got frustrated because the management really sucked and then the manager from the old hotel said a spot opened up and was curious if she'd consider coming back and she did.

Some of this is terrifying because who knew people were this stupid?
