It’s been almost two years since I’ve talked to you and a year since I saw you walking on by on a crowded street.
I’d mourned our friendship and let go of how horrible you treated me making me believe you really cared and then later on hearing how badly you’d talked behind my back and spread lies about me to our colleagues and rumors I was having an affair with you.
I should have confronted you when I found out everything but I knew you’re a coward and wouldn’t ever admit to the things you said or did.
It’s pretty unbelievable that the campus didn’t let you go after dating a student. I don’t care if they are in college; you were still her professor and it repulsed to me you had a power dynamic with that student. I saw the way she would follow you around and stay late. But I guess since she wasn’t an adult it didn’t matter to you or the campus.
Leaving campus to find new employment and start new was a huge relief and it took me nearly 7 months to come to terms that what I had gone through was traumatic. Not just with our friendship but the accusations and staff and students hating me for things I never did.
I had heard you left and moved to another state.
About a month ago was reached out to reapply so I did because I loved what I did for work.
Was quickly hired and put right back into the swing of things into my old position and was welcomed.
Everything seemed so easy like things just fell right where they were before all the bull crap.
Then yesterday happened.
Tell me why you were sitting in my office?
Why? There’s no way you couldn’t be completely idiotic to not know you would be the last person I’d ever want to see again.
But there you were wide eyed waiting.
All I could mutter out is “NO!” I must have looked like I could have done something dangerous because you stood up so quick and left.
For the rest of my work day I shook and felt sick.
I asked a colleague when you returned and they said about a month ago.
It’s like some cosmic joke for you to be here.
My stomach is in knots but I’m going to try and be the bigger person.
I just don’t understand why on earth you would think I’d ever want to see you again.
We haven’t spoke in two years.

Ok I cannot even remember the song but remember the music video.
I believe it’s 2010-2016
But it’s in the living room they are dancing and things are changing around them while they dance.
I think it’s him and his daughter but I could be wrong.
It’s driving me crazy.
Also definitely was upbeat.

I thought they already were closed a while ago but I’ve seen some job posting on indeed.
Has anyone worked there is it worth applying?
Looking for honest opinions.
I’ve heard some pretty negative stuff about the place in the past.
Dealing with drugs and staff to student relationships.

I’ve been doing housekeeping on and off for a total of three years.
I recently started working at a motel that has been bought by people who have never ran a hotel/motel before they are also not local to the area.
The grand opening happened last week after only having half of the property open at first which was on building with 60 rooms.
150 rooms with 3 buildings all together when fully functional.
Ok here’s where my rant comes into place.

1. They didn’t have the rooms fully ready with furniture or basic needs like bedding and towels or even the lotion/handsoap/shampoo/conditioner ECT.
2. The building that was open prior to the grand opening barely had enough supplies for that building.
3. They keep changing their minds on how they want the room set up.
4. They opened up the other two buildings without having housekeeping closets or carts stocked or set up.
5. Kitchen never has cups cleaned for stocking.
6. They’ve gotten rid of the night audit position so laundry is backed up during the busy time of the day.

Other minor annoyances

1. Construction is happening
   I’m talking literal concrete is being drilled in the ground is being pulled apart.
2. No pool/hot tub even though it’s advertised.
   It’s currently under construction.

I don’t expect a tip but they are always appreciated.
Where fellow housekeepers who have worked motel/hotel jobs what is your opinion on tipping?

Also why is it always the rooms that are nearly perfect that tip the best!
Compared to the ones that are trashed/smell that leave nothing?

No seriously I’ve already clocked out and this human decides without fail to find me right as I’m leaving or about to reach my car and start yelling my name and then talks for 15 more minutes.
Would I be a a-hole if the next time this happens I tell them I’m clocking back in if they’re going to talk to me?

I absolutely love the farmers market it’s a normal routine for me and my little pups.
However there were lots of not friendly dogs out this time.
Not once but twice while I was walking around I had two larger dogs start to sniff at my dogs and then immediately growl and bark lunge at them.
Did their rude ass owners say sorry no they just ignored me and walked away.
If I had any indication that the dogs were unfriendly I would not have let my dogs go near them, i actually usually keep my dogs pretty close two on leash one in a side purse. There are clear signs that dogs give when they are uncomfortable.
You could also hear dogs, barking and fighting throughout the market.
This really bums me out because my dogs love walking the market and how am I supposed to feel safe if there are unsafe owners.

Why is it every character in this show can’t find true happiness.

Has anyone else seen the lovely sex doll wearing a construction vest hanging on a sign poll?

It’s literally right by the homeless camp.

Drove by and she looks like she’s soliciting sex.

Also if this post gets removed be for real Astoria isn’t the cute little tourist town it use to be.
