    Rectangle - Why_am_I_here033 • 2d It's pretty common to have a dead guest. There's a standard procedure for it and we take care of it quietly. ... Reply 5.8k

    "I was once waiting for an elevator in a hotel pretty early in the morning. The doors opened & reflexively I started to get on. But it was filled with EMTs. a stretcher, and the hotel's general manager. He politely suggested I wait for the next one. The 'patient' had an oxygen mask on, with some tubes leading... somewhere. Later I noticed that the ambulance pulled off without the siren & waited for a stop light. I suspect he was dead all along, and they just made it look like he was unconscious & getting treatment." said u/2PlasticLobsters.

    "I used to work as an EMT, as well as in a hotel. I've seen both worlds lol. But no lights and sirens doesn't necessarily mean the patient is dead. It could mean the emergency is over. Meaning, adequate care is being provided by qualified medical help, and going Code 3 to the hospital doesn't bring any greater reward than just going Code 1." said u/IWantALargeFarva.

    "Yeah that's just like in my office. Cleaning lady has different cloths for desks, kitchen, toilet, etc. but only one bucket with water." said u/DarkZethis.

    Font - lazerayfraser • 2d Did valet at an upscale hotel in SF the number of times I parked luxury vehicles with drugs haphazardly/precariously stowed in obvious places always blew me away. Not surprisingly those guests were great tippers as they learned who to trust. So many escorts too, always laughed at dudes who'd come to the restaurant for lunch with a new lady practically every day like he was showing off his catalogue of women as no one knew he paid for them all ...

    "I want to know what my notes were from my honeymoon where I got a really bad stomach virus. 'Very white, only eats plain toast and white rice, spends a lot of time in bathroom'" said u/BagNo4331.

    Font - Hornet _Critical • 2d I have a pretty interesting one. We know criminal enterprises have funded casinos in the past. I worked at Revel casino (now ocean) in Atlantic City before and after its opening. One thing they kept mentioning in our onboarding was that the triads were funding the casino. I thought it was super strange that these execs were just openly telling brand new hires. Reply 4k ↓ ...

    "Probably a deliberate lie. You're much less likely to skim the hotel if you think the Triads will come after you…" said u/loaferuk123.

    Font - Ch3wbacca1 • 2d A well-known luxury hotel and resort chain keeps a database of you. They get pictures from the internet and basically stalk you to create a profile. They put what you ordered to eat, how many towels you needed, what drinks you liked, your kids' names and birthdays, address phone number. Everyone working in the hotel has access to this database and can see your information. It's not all good stuff either. We know you were an asshole to Jen while you were staying in London.

    "Michael Crichton, the author, said he spent a few weeks in a high end hotel in London. He was writing a book at the time and taped notes to a dresser to keep track of the timeline and subplots in his novel. When he returned to the hotel a few years later, he found the staff had put bits of tape on the dresser, just as he had done years during his last visit" said u/nucumber.

    Font - 1955photo 2d ● A family member used to work at Opryland Hotel in Nashville. Yes, it's super fancy. For about a year, they had a phantom shitter. As in, random dumps left in random places. It was always in corners where security cameras didn't reach. They figured it was an employee, and had some ideas, but never knew who it was, until someone left and it stopped. This was about 20 years ago. ... Reply 11.7k

    Font - OM3N1R 2d ● I worked cooking at an ultra exclusive resort in Utah ($3k-$12k/night) Nothing that exciting happened in my year there. I found a bottle in the tallboy (large fridge) labeled 'Kristen Belle's Breastmilk. DO NOT USE' Most celebrities were nice, except for David Beckham. He specifically requested no staff members make eye contact with him I had put in my 2 weeks, and was really drunk on a day off, and made a post on FB about how Gordon Ramsay was coming and I hoped he wasn't fil
