Hotels man

Well, its been a while since I have last took the time to write something. I guess forgetting to blog will make each post all the more awesome and my loyal 8-9 followers will jump for joy. The main reason I haven't blogged is because I'm too busy/tired. You see, I got a new job at a hotel. I sometimes work 3-11, and 11-7. So I'm pretty much beat when I get home and dont want to do anything. The guests that come and go for the most part are normal and pleasant, but every once in a while...... there is a person who is .... I dont know....  a day or 2 in the woods would do them well. they are such wimps. "the showers too hot" "this hotel had better have an elevator because i'm not taking the stairs." I kidd you not.
     So you have those guest that drive you crazy, but everyonce in awhile you get a guest who just makes your day. I had one such encounter at breaskfast. for graveyard shift I make breakfast and turn the tv on to cnn or some news channel that real people dont watch at breakfast. Then after I go to the front desk and check people out. I'll come back in the dining area to make sure breakfast is going good and what not (when really I'm there just to watch tv, I really dont care about the customers. kidding of course :) So I go in and glance at the tv, not knowing what I'm looking at, some major story about some major issue. (said celebrity went to rehab again) a man was standing next to me. he turned to me and said: "Can you believe THAT!?"
"No!" I'll say
"What the (bad word) was he THINKING!?" the man said. "He's (bad word) out of his mind!"
"I'll say" I said, wondering what we were talking about. the economy? gay marriage perhaps? all the while wondering why this man smells of too much old spice.
"You'er (bad word) right. he said. then went back to breakfast, glad I'm sure to have encountered an indivual such as myself who cared about Lindsay Lohan overcoming her addiction.
