Helpin’ The Man
Before we got married, my husband and I worked for the same hotel chain. I worked in accounting, he was a manager. Since then I’ve moved on to wife and mom and he’s moved up to General Manager of his own hotel. Normally my day to day work doesn’t mix with his, but there are rare chances when I get to help out. The entire hotel is moving to a centralized accounting program and in order to do that they have to back up the entire system through tape drives. These tapes had to be driven out to O’Hare so that they could be shipped to the corporate offices really quickly. They would then take the tapes and convert them onto the new system. So starting first thing Monday morning, when the staff gets started on their work, they are on the new system and all of their old information has been integrated!
Ok, so my job wasn’t all that technical, but when they pay $.75 a mile…it was quite a nice little pay day!
