place, Tina heads out from her office to inspect the floors. “That takes me from 9am to 2pm, doing spot checks, making sure all the rooms are as they should be, that all the maintenance required has been done, that everything works.” We ask if she then pauses for a spot of lunch. “I never go out for lunch or to the canteen. I always have a working lunch at my desk. That might sound silly but I never have time. I know people say you should make time, but there’s not enough time in the day. Especially as the spot checks take time and then I have to deal with paperwork and invoices in the afternoon.” But surely she must feel the urge to nip out for a coffee or a stroll? She laughs. “You must be joking. Never a stroll, however short, I walk miles here within the hotel every day. It keeps me really fit. When I go on holiday I really notice the difference after two weeks of not running about.” As Tina finishes at 4pm most days, she’s left with just two hours to deal with invoices, to check the staff rotas are in place for the next day and the evening staff is in. It’s an especially busy period for the hotel as the guest rooms are currently undergoing a substantial refurbishment, so Tina has to plan around that, with all the extra attention to detail that entails. Then there are requests from guests, which vary from requests for fresh air, or discovering that they have left anything from a mobile charger in their room to a significant amount of money in the safe or forgotten their passport and not realising until they’re at the airport. 26
