anyone here work in hotel before or now working???come in share some experience wif us....

i used to be in one of the hotels in KL..

What do you want and need to know?

anything lo.......wat ever info u can share wif us juz tell us her thx...

i would say its awesome!

If you have the chance to, go for it!

I was actually the MIS ( Management Information System ) asst manager, so it was somewhat of a mix of front end and back end job. Front end meaning u interact with the guests and backend being hey all the IT infrastructure and such.

If ur a good a$$ kisser (of the guests, that is lol ) you can earn some serious extra dough(tips) and its nice to interact with other nationalities, discover something new everyday..plus the hotel has so many departments, hsekeeping, banquet etc and IT systems are everywhere, you get to mingle with the staff as well. Something like an all access pass to the departments, its good if you're the social and talkative type..but hey, if you're not its a good to sharpen your PR skills

but all is not green, its not all pros anyway...long working hrs..a hotel is 24/7 anyway! support calls at 3am...crappy guests who yell and throw things at you..politics..

All in all its still worth it ( pending on what designation lah), was there for about 1year ++..still in the ripe young age here, wouldnt wanna be too comfy in a position..

And one major plus point, front office ladies are hawt!! (for you hot red blooded young males out there!) haha

no body work at hotel????

i got the same opinion as hafiz_control

currently playing my role in the Digital Marketing department for one of the premier hotel in JB.

and yes, i am a "hot red blooded young male" as hafiz puts it the girls here are hawt.....

but the most important thing is that u get to work in a challenging environment where u can train yourself to be more proactive in your area of expertise

only been here for 2 months but learned so much

my fren says hotel managers are overwork and underpay.
even if u climb to managerial position

u still suffer

NOT TRUE AT ALL

but then again, it depends on the Hotel you're working with... dont expect too much if its a 3 star hotel

ya true...is all depends on the hotel that u work.....

u last time study at where??taylor??r u a hotel student last time??u now working at jb which hotel??

i'm a hotel student from taylors

Previously a UiTM Student undertaking IT, not a hotel student

The Puteri Pacific Johor Bahru (Previously known as Pan Pacific)

i see i see.......

Hiye,
I was a front office asst manager in one of the 5stars hotel at the Bukit Bintang area... What I can say from my experience are it was really hard work, torturing and the pay suck... Many who join the hotel line would say they love to meet ppl and all tht but after a year or two their view will definitely change... If you enjoy meeting unreasonable and stupid ppl from around the world, then the hotel line is for you... Or else please spare yourself the misery and join some other line of work...

r u a hotel graduate student??where u working now??so u quit hotel line ady??

No I'm actually a computer graduate.. My asst GM asked me why I wanted to join the service industry and I told her things like I like meeting ppl, hate sitting in front of the PC the whole day and all tht...

Ended up I had to sit in front of the PC the whole day tracking the room blockings and reservation and I ended up hating meeting ppl almost immediately after I met my first stupid customer...

I'm no longer in the hotel line now.. Resigned early this year to join a design company... No regrets though because I really learned a lot from my 2 years there..

ohh i see.....do u mind wat da stpd customer do till u fedup??he or she complaint dis n dat??a foreinger or local???

Too many till I don't bother keeping count la... Most of the staffs there hate Singaporeans and Arabs but for me they are all the same.. You'll find unreasonable people from anywhere.. I've met dumb customer from everywhere including our own Malaysian but I'm used to it already I guess...

I'm ok with fussy customers because they actually pay the amount of money to enjoy the 5stars service... It's the dumb unreasonable ones that I can't stand... Idiots who can't find parking spots la, hotel too big la, room not same quality with whichever hotel they've stayed in before la... And being a chinaman company you'll definitely meet people who claim they know the owner of the hotel, the GM or whoever minister that crossed their mind... Can't stand stupid people who have to sell others name to carry themselves around...

ohh...wah hotel too big oso can complain....

Not only that you know... Traffic jam in front of the hotel also they complain.. As if it's within our control those stupid idiots... It's Bukit Bintang area la what do you expect... Go stay in Mint Hotel if you don't want any traffic jam...
