Imagine. A grandiose two story
hunting lodge. Your pick of 9 individually classic themed suites. A private
kitchen staff serving you gourmet meals three times a day. And a view of the
mountain landscape that looks like it came from a postcard photo. Is that worth
$800 a night!?
Ha, if you are at all like me that last sentence probably ruined any daydreaming you were doing. In all honesty it is a beautiful lodge but I spent 5 hours cleaning there today and it's still not done!
See when it comes to making beds there are certain laws that must be followed. Basically, if the bed doesn't look like it's ready for a photo shoot, it's not ready. strip it down and make it again. 9 bedrooms. 9 queen sized beds. 18 sheets and 9 blankets to batten down before adorning the wedding cake of a bed with it's froufy comforter and 6 pillows of various sizes.
And the common discourse with my co-worker was, "do you have enough sheet on your side?" "Nope!" " Um, ok. Pull just a little....No! Too much." " I can't tuck in." "Neither can I" "We need to grab another sheet." (undoes entire bed, goes to get another sheet) rinse. repeat.
What's worse is I went home and made my bed the same way. Now I'm afraid to sleep on it for fear that someone is going to charge me for my night's stay and offer me a continental breakfast in the morning before I checkout. I think I'll go sleep on the couch, I can't even afford two dollars a night.
