FREE FROM THE EVIL EMPIRE

Well, I'm finally free from the Evil Empire at the Savoy Hotel and back in Freelance world. Seriously...Who would have thought a hotel would cause that much stress...I just got home from work and I couldnt wait to write to this, to report just how much of a bunch of Toss-pots they are

The hardest part was dealing with some of the Morons in the Hotel !!!. Their Holier than thou attitudes were killing me (oooh, look at me, I work at the Savoy) !!!There is so much politics in a hotel its not funny!!!. The Events Director is Pure Evil !!!!, (He looks like Dr Evil too. I always had to work to keep a straight face at meetings)...Because I worked for an external company who is based there, Certain departments in the hotel were unhappy about this, and while I cannot prove it, some are starting to resort to sabotage and manipulation to get us kicked out....e.g, Event orders going missing and then suddenly appearing at the last minute and then dropping us in the shit when things go wrong!.

Bottom Line...It's over, I didn't belong there...its not getting me to where I want to be Career-wise...so it had to go. I feel bad for the guys who were working for me who are left behind, as they are left to pick up the pieces. They are good guys who will do ok in the Long Run.
The Operations Manager (My Boss) was not too happy about me leaving. btw...He enters a room like Darth Vader (Breathing & all)...

Chalk it all up to a Learning Experience...Never work in Hotels, and never work for Morons in Hotels !!!

I already have 3 Interviews for next week and some Freelance work already lined up...So its not all that bad...Finally now I can have some time to finish editing "The Tutor"
