Its quiet, so I'll give this a try.

Tonight I'm at work from 3-11pm. Normally I would have between 3-6 rooms to turn around ((business meeting rooms, not bedrooms(I work in a hotel)) and then I have a list of 20-30 jobs that have to be done over the 3 weekend shifts. Sat 7-3 Sat 3-11 Sun 8-4.

However tonight I have had:

3pm: 2 rooms to do.

3:40: 1 room to do

4pm: Call to room: No sound on t.v. Annoyance rating 3/10. Solve time 3 seconds - plug it in.

4:30: No rooms to do

4:30-5:30 Wander around looking thoughtful.

5:30-6:00: Dinner

6:00-6:20: Car Park check, or an excuse to get some fresh air while checking out the cars in the car park.

6:30-7:30: Do list of cleaning chores given to me by Duty Manager ready for Managing Directors look-a-round this week.

N.b 7pm: Call to room who has locked themselves out of bathroom: Annoyance rating 5/10. Solve time 10 seconds. Smugness factor 9/10 as they cant understand how I did it. I have the ability to hide the handy bit of wire in my hand, unlock the door with it with the one hand, and look blankly at them while doing it.

7:30-8: Cover reception, despite only knowing how to answer the telephone and redirect calls, let alone check people in.

This is a rare thing indeed, a quiet night. I will write up an average night some other time. But i'm off to look busy, before they ask me to do anything too strenuous... hey why should I when theres no immediate need? Besides I'm off tomorrow Muahahaha
