Sometimes I write poetry.
Mostly I tell stories.
Do what you want with that info.
Boss went balls out with Christmas. One year he wanted employee photos with us each sitting on his lap with an elf hat and ears on to display in the lobby. When it was my turn, upon closer look, I saw his fake beard was full of brown crust.

I don’t mean to bash on my old boss. He was quite a gem, actually. But I’ll never forget the time he used his hand to scrape out dried curdled coffee creamer out of the automatic door tract and then moments later used the same hand to put M&Ms into the front desk candy bowl.

At some point during the night someone took the fake flowers out of the vase at the front desk and stabbed them into the ceiling tiles in the lobby. It wasn’t caught on camera. Night Auditor was too short to pull off such a heist even with a ladder. It’s a mystery to this day.

The vending machine in the guest laundry room jammed. Maintenance found a rolled up blowout diaper stuffed inside, with fallen Snickers bars touching the dried shit. My boss Lysol wiped them and put the candy back inside for purchase.

One time during breakfast a guest knocked over a cup of orange juice onto the floor, looked around, looked me dead in the eyes, and then walked off. Later when she came to the desk to check out, she acted like nothing happened.

Couple went shopping at the mall and left their high end purchases (Coach, Gucci, Lululemon, etc) in the back seat of their car. Car was broken into, unsurprisingly. I didn’t have an ounce of empathy. You’re a special kind of stupid if you leave expensive shit in your car like that.

I was taking a reservation over the phone by a woman who was coming to the city to compete in a singing competition. At the end of the call she asked if I wanted to hear her sing, to which I was like “yes please!”
I expected Mariah Carey.
She was an Xhosan Throat Singer.

Turns out it’s because I spelled the word “envelope” wrong once. I spelled it as “envilope”.
Totally understandable.

Someone stole the large questionably shaped decorative vegetable bottle from the reception area. My boss was devastated. It was his pride and joy. A focal point of the lobby decor. A relic.
A few days later housekeeping found it in the room of a corporate guest.

Angry guest called about annoying beeping noise in her room. I went to investigate and didn’t hear it. She called down several more times, irate, demanding we fix the beeping noise in her room. Turns out it was her travel alarm clock periodically beeping due to low battery. Dumb bitch.

The breakfast attendant discovered a sloppily drawn (with a sharpie) dick and balls on one of the lobby chairs, complete with wrinkles, hair and shaft veins. It was absolutely beautiful.

Elderly but well put together coworker (Botox, fillers, fake lashes, etc) always flirted with hot male guests. One day she disappeared for an hour and came back with her lipstick smeared on her forehead and cheek. I didn’t let her know and she worked like that for hours.

Wasn’t uncommon to get prank calls. One day a kid called and asked to speak to Harry S. Crotum. Instead of hanging up I said, “sure thing, let me transfer you!” and handed the phone to the sales manager, who played along. They had a great 5 min conversation about the lodging industry.

One time someone (with an obvious sinus infection) blew snot and boogers all over the wall in the elevator and molded it into the shape of a penis. It was fucking disgusting but also impressive.

Housekeeping found a small butt plug with the silhouette of Mickey Mouse on the end. It was placed into a baggie and added to lost and found. It disappeared a few days later. Boss is an obsessed Disney Adult.

One time my boss had bronchitis. He still came to work. He sounded like a dying wildebeest. During a coughing fit he hacked up full sized green bean. He said, “I haven’t eaten green beans since last week”. Sir where the fuck in your throat did you hide that green bean for a whole week?
