Inside the Secret Lives of the Ultra-Rich: Shocking Tales from Luxury Hotels and Restaurants Revealed
All I can think of at the minute, was a brilliant place to work though, and all in all the guests and staff were brilliant to work for/with, going back this summer!
I work at a Marriot, one that is more expensive than your typical hotel but by NO MEANS a place that millionaires or celebrities would come to, especially because of our suburban location. However that doesn’t mean I don’t often get people who think that because they are paying 150 bucks a night on a Marriot hotel room (honestly not that much but it feels a lot to them) that they can be just as rude and entitled as the other comments on our thread. My favorite little story is the guy who was shooting hoops at our sports court too early in the morning, and when i asked him to stop he just looked at me and threw the ball as far as he could into the parking lot, saying “I’m paying too much to be treated this way. I’m talking to your manager”.
Not working there but saw someone claiming he can fire the waitress cause he has the power.
Not a restaurant/hotel worker. However, we were living in the Bahamas for a few months and to occupy her time my mother volunteered at the school. This got the attention of a rich person. She invited us to Windermere Island… this is the kind of gated area where royalty have estates and you do not get to visit.
The experience was surreal. We realized we weren’t invited to chat, we were summoned to listen and entertain this bored housewife of a Texas oil tycoon. She had no interest in us, just talking about how she thought these kids should be ‘helped’ (she never came to the school). We spent a couple hours there as this lady rambled on with the most twisted thought process… not crazy, just twisted by circumstance. Like a bird in a gilded cage. Then we were dismissed.
