25 Reasons Why Hospitality People Are So Resilient
Hospitality People
this article is dedicated to you!
Have you ever worked a double or triple shift, while dealing with no electricity, no running water, no warm food and limited staff?
In the recent wake of natural disasters, many hotels have been running at peak capacity. People working in hotels have seen it all! By now you’re exhausted, yet you keep showing up to work (with a smile).
Day and night, you’ve been working your tail off! You’re tired and may feel as though no one appreciates your efforts.
But we do! As a hotel owner myself, I see the selfless dedication from many of our team members. I know our associates have set aside their personal/home-life challenges, to focus on our hotels and guests. I am super grateful for them. Other owners, managers, co-workers and guests have noticed your hard work also. They may not have expressed it, but they do value your hard work. Trust me, they do!
Hotel people like yourself are the reason why others can take their mind off troubles and get a comfortable night’s sleep (even though their house is under water or completely destroyed). You are a successful rare breed.
We can all agree hospitality people are tough. Hospitality people are resilient!
