dancer on the knife

The two-month hotel professional training came to an end, and all colleagues set off for the hotel.The dream hotel began to appear in our field of vision, and this day happened to be October 2003, 10.It was also from this day that we ended our nearly three-month training career and entered the actual working state.The moment I left the fire teaching brigade, I was extremely sad when I thought about the footprints of youth left on the land of the teaching brigade.

With great excitement, I moved into the staff dormitory.There are brand-new wardrobes in the dormitory, brand-new beds, quilts, blankets, writing desks, curtains and a sunny balcony.There are also shared drinking fountains and showers on each floor.There is a canteen in the employee activity building next to it, as well as an activity room and a TV room.For us who just graduated, all this exceeded our expectations, and it gave him some small surprises. Thinking about the future life, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth unconsciously.

When we first arrived at the hotel, we were full of novelty just like Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden. The hotel is so big that it takes us more than ten minutes to walk out of the gate from the staff post area.Trees, grass, and flowers are planted everywhere in the hotel, but some are covered with shade sheds, and some are wrapped with straw ropes. It should be that it has not been long since it was just loaded down, and there is even a mountain full of original ecological forests.Fish ponds, observation decks, employee basketball courts, tennis courts, villas, main buildings and other architectural facilities come into our sight one by one.However, many places are still in the finishing stage of construction, so it looks somewhat messy.After the supervisor took us from the housekeeping department to visit the guest rooms and villas in the main building, our mood began to change. Facing the next land reclamation, we have a long way to go.

On the second day when we came to the hotel, we started the formal land reclamation.The butler part includes the PA center, laundry center, and butler center. As employees of the butler center, we are mainly responsible for the land reclamation of 222 guest rooms and 14 villas.The supervisor gathered all the staff of our butler center together, and made arrangements for the specific work of land reclamation. At the same time, he also declared that during the land reclamation period, the management would still be militarized. Morning exercises were required, and they lined up for meals, and turned off the lights on time for rest.All in all, all whistles.The nerves that originally wanted to relax were tightened by such a system. It seems that the next land reclamation will be a "tough battle".

We live a strictly restrained life every day, and the militarized management leaves us little time to think about the rest. Those personalities have long been worn down by military training, professional training and various management systems.Morning exercises are done according to the regulations every day, and there are unified instructions for eating, walking, and singing. There is no individual here, only the team, and only obedience.

Sad guest room reclamation

The hotel has just been renovated, and the whole floor has a strong decoration smell. Each of us brought our own land reclamation tools, including rags, spatulas, glass knives, wipers, brooms, dustpans, glass water, detergent, Gloves etc.Balconies, glass, and washrooms are the most difficult places to clean. A lot of construction waste sometimes takes a long time to shovel with a shovel to completely remove it. The gaps in the balcony glass sliding doors are even more delicate. It takes a lot of work to clean the high glass. Be careful so you don't fall down.When doing these sanitation and cleaning, either squatting or standing, the whole body is sore after a few hours.

Because of the high intensity of work and the high energy consumption, my stomach always growls before meals.At that time, the hotel staff canteen had not yet been put into use, and it was necessary to walk to a restaurant opposite the hotel gate to eat.The hotel also sees us working very hard, and the food is also very good, with plenty of oil and water, and rich dishes. Every time we eat, it is the time when we linger the most.This can be regarded as the most anticipated and happiest thing during the land reclamation period.

For most of us, this is the first time to open up wasteland in a hotel, and some dead corners of hygiene cannot be handled well, so the supervisor repeatedly emphasized during the meeting that it must be thoroughly clean and hygienic, and the inspection must pass, otherwise work overtime and rework.Everyone's work intensity is high, coupled with the supervisor's strict requirements, colleagues began to complain in private.At such a moment, if every colleague quits halfway, our work intensity will directly increase, so we unconsciously twist it tighter like a rope.Everyone enlightens and helps each other, so they can adjust their status in time.

Welcoming the opening of the wasteland all night

As the hotel's soft opening time approached, and we under the leadership of the supervisor focused on top-notch cleaning standards, the progress of land reclamation was slow.Under the pressure of the hotel executives, our work intensity has further increased. It is obvious that we cannot complete the land reclamation plan by daytime alone.Gradually, it has become a common thing to continue land reclamation after dinner, because colleagues have shared joys and sorrows along the way, and the team cohesion is very strong. Based on this background, we do not feel boring when working overtime.

We who have just graduated are not skilled in technology. Despite the supervisor's urging, the progress is still far from the expectation.In order to complete the progress within the stipulated time, the overtime time is getting later and later.One of the nights, we opened up wasteland until more than three o'clock in the morning, thinking that we had to get up again after going back without sleeping for a few hours, and in addition, there was a long distance from the main hotel building to the staff dormitory, so we decided to open in the corridor on the corner of the third floor. A village.At that time, the weather was still relatively hot, and more than a dozen people slept on the ground.Soon there was a lot of snoring, because I was too tired.There is no time to think about the rest. In the days of rushing to open up wasteland, there are only three things in my mind: one is to complete the work tasks; the other is to eat; the third is to sleep.

With the efforts of dozens of us, the sanitation of the main building and villas of the hotel began to become tidy, and basically passed the inspection of the superiors.Those colleagues who are not full feel really sad when they see their immature faces but their hands are covered with calluses.But that's work, that's life.They are technical secondary school graduates, and we also have a large number of college students, who are all students, regardless of education background, age, or gender. One of our common goals is to complete the land reclamation task within the specified time.

After the land reclamation basically came to an end, we started the work of waxing wooden objects such as furniture and doors.Applying paraffin wax is not much easier than purely hygienic. I often turn my body sideways, and sometimes I have to drill under the table to apply paraffin wax layer by layer.After a long time, my hands became sore, and my bones felt like they were about to fall apart.But with so many rooms waiting for us, we had to grit our teeth and persist.The manager told us that day that all the acceptance inspections would be passed the next day.In order to complete such a task, we had to decide to work overtime until late at night.However, the workload was quite heavy, and it was still not completed until after 2 o'clock in the morning.Only continue to stay up late, ready to fight all night.Due to long-term fatigue, during the process of paraffin waxing in the early morning of that day, I closed my eyes several times, and the drowsiness had completely invaded.For this reason, only wash your face with cold water to keep yourself awake and complete the task.The next morning, the manager saw that we were still doing sanitation, we just said lightly that we were doing it all night, so as not to embarrass the department, so as to ensure the completion of the task.Seeing that we were working overtime regardless of our health, the manager specially ordered us to go back and rest for a morning, and at that time we also finished waxing all the wooden objects.The moment I fell into bed, I felt that life was very comfortable, and I slept soundly that morning.

Items to welcome the opening

With the joint efforts of hundreds of employees, the sanitation and cleaning of the hotel has come to an end.But as the supervisor said, in a five-star hotel, sanitation is an eternal theme and there is no end.In order to welcome the opening of the hotel, various items are also equipped in the guest rooms one after another.I remember that one day a batch of small refrigerators came and needed to be delivered to the villa area.One of the full-time housekeepers and I delivered each refrigerator to each villa with a linen cart.The refrigerator is very heavy, and you have to be careful when it falls.You have to walk some steps from the side of the road to reach the gate of the villa area.After an afternoon of tossing and tossing, these items were finally arranged in place. After doing all this, I felt that it was difficult to straighten my waist.

Most of the items in the hotel rooms are carried and configured by us, especially some mattresses are very heavy, and it takes some effort to move them from the door to the room.But our ten or so male colleagues arranged these heavy objects into the room one by one, and looked at the fully equipped room, just like our own room, full of a sense of accomplishment.During the period of equipping items, we regarded ourselves as a porter, a loader, and during the process of carrying, we joked and teased each other, so as to make the tiring work a little more fun.

After more than a month, with the hard work of countless Puri people, a brand new platinum five-star hotel was presented before everyone.And every time we pass by the main building and villas of the hotel, looking at the clean and bright glass and the tidy environment, we feel a mixed feeling in our hearts unconsciously. We are the pioneers of the hotel.In these hard times, we have left too much sadness and happiness.
