Happy Thanksgiving

November started with getting my phone and internet fixed. Got out the heavy winter sweaters from storage while I waited. Celebrated my sister-in-law's birthday with cake and ice cream. The hotel head housekeeper quit and maids began leaving the guest rooms they cleaned wide open with lights on so wondered if it was a protest. Until a new head housekeeper was hired, the maids didn't want to do their jobs. Celebrated niece's birthday at an Italian restaurant with cake and ice cream at their home. Celebrated cats Bilbo and Misty's 3rd Birthday with some catnip. Had to rake my own yard cause nephew was still working at a fast food place and can't come. I worked on my yard until too sore to move. Will just have to finish next spring. Made some goodies for the front desk staff to enjoy on Thanksgiving to find out on arriving to work on Black Friday that they didn't eat any of it. Spent Thanksgiving at sister's house and then took niece and nephew Black Friday Shopping at the mall. Sa the new Gucci movie with nephew (loved it). Discovering common interests with a coworker, but we can't be friends cause they are a supervisor and thus, have some authority over me like the schedules (not a manager so probaly couldn't fire me without general manager approval). It's getting to be a pleasure and torture to work with them.

Viewed the lunar eclipse and thought so pretty I had my coworker go outide to observe it. Another shift, had a birthday party in a hotel room escalate into violence where a party guest in the room had to be taken to the hospital. Blood trail in view of guests were coming down for breakfast. My supervisor left their phone behind so couldn't call them for assistance on procedures when kicking a guest out of the hotel. First was noise complaints, then poor security guy had to break up a fist fight in front of the airline flight crew in the lobby preparing to leave for the airport. Supervisor arrived wondering why there were a bunch of cop cars out front and the birthday guest complained the cops ordered them to leave the hotel to request a refund (even though they were there all night long). Supervisor explained no refunds when cops force people to leave.
