GM's thread about nothing (48 Viewers)

You're firing someone or someone is firing you?
I'm firing. Assistants need to learn that putting me in something close enough in quality to a hostel is not a good idea. I'm beyond enraged.
You seem like a swell guy to work for
I'm actually a great guy to work for. Excuse me for being a little angry when I ask my assistant to find me a hotel that is nice, clean, and comfortable.(I'm traveling on business) and she doesn't tell me where I am staying until the day before and show up to a complete dump.
Maybe you should loosen the pursestrings and allow her more than 40/night to work with

You think she flew out there to personally inspect the place or something? It didn't work out. No need for the look at me whine-fest. Definitely no need to fire her.

When the hotel website says its a 2 * hotel...that's a pretty big screw up.
So go to a different hotel. I'm sure they're not all sold out.

2 star hotels are dumps. I've stayed in some 2.5 star dumps. Still, I don't think this is a fire-worthy offense.
 
Going to DC in the morning for a conference. Somehow this hotel doesn't have a bar. That's an offense worthy of not attending this conference next year.

I do 100% of my hotel booking. No matter how good my assistant is, she's not invested in me having a decent place to stay at nearly the same level I am. Same with airfare.

I'm not the one that planned the conference, so I didn't pick the hotel.
 
You people have had crappy assistants. Then again, I'm currently unemployed. Tough call.

I vote firing=justified.

Georgetown University Hotel and Conference Center. Plenty of bars nearby. I just hate to miss out on the hotel bar experience. It's one of life's great pleasures.
 
We finished Game of Thrones. Great show. Did they nerd up that thread so much I shouldn't go in there?

Now we started East Bound and Down. How have I not seen this? :lmao:

 
what's the point of an assistant?

I once had a business trip to Sunnyvale, flew into San Jose. When I got there, I had no rental car, because my secretary had accidentally booked it in San Jose Del Cabo. Oops, Mexico.

When I got to my hotel, which was in San Jose instead of Sunnyvale, it was a freaking crack den.

Fired her as soon as I got home.

unless you're banging your assistant, their only job is assisting you. if they make your job harder, there really isn't a point in paying them.

You're fired, slacker.
 
Why stay at a different hotel chain/different hotel every time? Use the same hotel and rack up the frequent traveler points/miles/free nights of stay etc...

I don't understand what is so hard about "I need to be at this address for a meeting on the morning on the 8th, please book me into the nearest Marriott assuming it is not more than X dollars a night on the 7th?" :shrug:

 
Decided to start a WWF game with a friend who happens to be a gay gentleman. My opening board?

U E E R Q O A :unsure:

Tried "QUORA" - not accepted. OK, I'm not passing up 30 points.

 
Immediately booked a room at NYLO for this weekend to celebrate with the Wiccan. I am going to destroy.
This was very much a success.I was a little worried because I had been sick all week, and had a crappy night sleeping Friday night at Cowboys Stadium, but manned up and went to work. NYLO is a very cool hotel and I am pretty sure Stu would approve.My only issue was Sunday morning I woke up and realized I was completely dehydrated. A week of taking Allergy medicine and not staying hydrated had caught up with me. I didn't feel all that bad yet (pounding headache came later in the day and still hanging around), but it led to a weird reaction in the bedroom. My soldier showed up for duty, but there was no finish to be had. So before check-out, I basically became a human Sybian for an hour straight, and everyone went home happy.
