Greetings Fellow Hoteliers,
I, like so many of you, am going through the COVID-19 motions as part of the 25% of staff that still remains at my hotel. I've handled the changes as best as I can, but tonight may be the straw that breaks the camel's back. Backstory: GM has been covering desk shifts for the first time since she was no doubt promoted to GM. She doesn't seem to think that she needs to follow any of the checklists we have in place for responsibilities to be completed during a shift. She has no problem assigning tasks that she doesn't want to do herself, but has the audacity to claim that "all operations of the hotel are a team effort and require a village." Ok, she's lazy af, but we've all known that for some time.
This morning upon her arriving to work late in relieving me, I ask her if I would see her tomorrow, to which she replied "I don't have the luxury of getting days off." Whoa there Bessie; This lady hasn't been at the hotel more than 5 days a week since I started here 8 years ago. She has no problem putting employees on 7, 10, 21 day stretches, for 8, 10, 12, 16 hours at a time and now she has the balls to complain? I was honestly insulted.
I show up to work tonight for a 12 hour shift, and there is an entry in our shift log from said lazy, ballsy manager: "For reporting purposes, every shift, going forward, and until further notice, please provide a complete list of duties performed outside of regular checklists." I almost walked out right then and there. I've been in Hospitality for going on 15 years, and I feel like I've earned the right not to be micromanaged by a lazy cow that doesn't have a filter on her mouth.
Am I being overly sensitive due to the current happenings or am I justified in my feelings, because I'm this close to telling her to furlough me too and I'll just collect the unemployment and find a new job after this is all over.
I'm super thankful to have an outlet like this page to rant and seek advice. Good luck out there to all of you. Stay safe and wash your hands.
