Halfway through my second week at this new job, I was "officially" done with training. During training I had to sit on the "training row" with the rest of the fresh meat...close to the supervisor in case we had any questions.

Due to a variety of factors I was unaware of until it was too late, I was scheduled to cover the night audit shift for Friday and Saturday night. I hadn't worked night audit since early August, and I'd never worked night audit at this particular property...luckily they use the same computer system and I could fake it well enough to get done what ( Read more... )
