well it looks like I will have to return my techie-goddess crown
\nit seems I left a ‘float’ tag in my style sheet that was causing my layout to look totally f*&ked up..why it chose today to make itself known I have NO idea! fortunately my partner in tech geekness (and everything else) took pity on me, found and fixed it *s* thank you babe!
\nso I finally have a night off..granted only night this week I do but hey, sometimes OT is a good thing..and just in time because I think the whole world has totally gone off its rocker!
\nfirst off, work..as some (OK maybe 1 or 2) know I work nights. to be specific I’m a night auditor at the local Best Western. most nights are fairly tame, unless you get parents fighting over and with their kids and the cops get involved..but thats another post. on my shift its mostly me and my paperwork (from hell) and the occasional truck driver\/weary traveler who just want a room and some sleep..most don’t even bother to ask the price of the room, they don’t care, they just want sleep.
\nbut every once in a while you get the real ‘bargain hunters’.. for example I had one last night come in and ask me the cost of a double room for one night. we do give discounts (corporate, AAA, AARP, and Military) they qualified for none of those, so when I told the guy (you could tell he was beat) what the price was he looked at his wife (?traveling companion) she said “no, not for that price” to him, then looked at me and said..”don’t you give discounts for HEB employees?” I imagine I gave her the same look as I would have gotten if I’d gone into her HEB (grocery store) and asked if they gave discounts for Best Western employee’s..needless to say I told her no.
\nthen there are the ones who want to complain about how we do things..first off let me say we do NOT have a front desk system where I work..secondly when you stay at most motels and pay with a credit card they do not charge the card until you check out! third, I live in a VERY small town, we don’t do things like they ‘are in the big city’ so coming in and comparing us to someplace you stay in Dallas and how they do it there is rather ridiculous don’t you think? hell Dallas is only 2 hours away, if you like it so much better there that interstate in front of the property will take you right to it!
\nand if you need further proof that the world has gone mad..well the EX was acting human again today..BlueWolf stated that it seems to be only once a month that he does this and maybe he’s having some sort of ‘reverse period’ type thing going on…I don’t know enough about astrology to be able to say if its that or not..but something very strange is definitely going on lately…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
