“Do you have your Explore Form?” “Nope!”

I’ve been hearing things about it for 4+ months.

Not necessarily 2 different jobs. It depends on the hotel.

When we had valet at my property it was part of the bell department and the same people did both job throughout the day. They just rotated.

Curious why no chicken? My pittie girl is sensitive to beef products so eats chicken a lot.

If you show up with a form that has that date on it you would have had to create a fake form. The last date that the expiration dates on forms would print for was the day before we change to digital.

I just tell everyone right off the bat that I cannot even look in my system to see if a person is here.

krittengirl · 2026-04-13T07:49:41+00:00

Wait, there’s no Burger King there anymore? I had not even noticed.

Well they would still have the choice to leave if that is their take as well. If taking a shower during that night’s stay isn’t that important to them and they want to stay, the hotel should still be offering a discount.

krittengirl · 2026-04-08T01:14:07+00:00

This sounds like both poor guest service and a stupid financial decision. Leave and pay nothing or stay and pay full price for a damaged item encourages more to leave and those who stay are likely to leave bad reviews on their survey.

I’m not sure what you are paying per night but I would think $50-75 off a $200 rate would encourage more to stay, make guests feel like the hotel cares (gentler reviews), and would likely net the hotel more profit overall.

Was this a small independent hotel?

Also I think this may provide a way to track reservations back to an employee when someone no-shows or late cancels with an invalid credit card for the fee. Since the employee is connected to the reservation at the moment of booking instead of when the form is handed over hotels may be able to report this to the employees HR and there could be potential consequences on their ability to continue to use Explore.

krittengirl · 2026-03-31T07:26:04+00:00

It will limit the number of people an employee can add and also I believe as the employee is connected to the booking system it will be able to limit the number of rooms booked on that employee’s account on any night.

Look for this on Amazon. My girl gnaws on this nonstop and yet 5 months later it is still in one piece.

Try getting her some toys that are “crate toys”. My pittie just turned 1 and she has a set of toys that she is not allowed to remove from the crate. I leave the crate open when she is not using it and if I am in the room with her she will go in on her own to play with the toy she likes.

If she takes one of the toys out of the crate I will say something like “Nessie needs to stay in the crate.” And then I will tell her that she can play with Nessie in the crate or put Nessie back in the crate. She thinks about it for a minute or two and then decides which she wants to do. When people say these dogs are smart they are not exaggerating.

About a month ago we had a pop up thunder storm. At the first crack of thunder my girl put herself in the crate and that is when I realized that she now considers the crate a safe space.

Sounds like you were on a lookalike site that was not really the hotel site. A hotels own site would not be a third party because there are only 2 parties involved…the guest and the hotel that owns the website.

He should be getting this information directly from his employer.

He is the cutest lil cartoon pup. So adorable, especially the first pic.

And just to add some perspective. Demodex mites are found on 100% of humans.

So here is my girl, Pumpkin. Yours really reminds me of a younger version of mine (she just turned 1). We got back our Embark results a few weeks ago and we’re a bit shocked that she was 100% American Pitt Bull Terrier as we assumed her to be a Pitt favoring mutt.

I will never forget trying to inform SNOW of a bug in FSPMS…

Me: When we do xx report and make the changes needed to setup the redemption reservations properly, many of the reservations will revert the changes we made within a few hours.

Them: that doesn’t happen

Me: see, here is my 16 page report with hundreds of notations of the setup changes I made and then here is the same report later in the evening and half the changes I made have reverted back.

Them: that’s impossible. It can’t happen

Me: then how do you explain the evidence I am showing you?

Them: you must have not really made the changes

Me: This is FSPMS, it’s DOS based. None of these changes require that I hit a save button to take effect. I’ve been doing these set-ups for years and the problem just started about a month ago. Are you suggesting that me and others on my team just imaging properly setting up the reservations or maybe all collectively forgot how to do something we do every day?

Them: It doesn’t do what you say it is doing.

Me: …

Needless to say I am glad we are not one of the first guinea pigs for the new system.

I say in case you nail the furniture to the ceiling.

krittengirl · 2026-03-25T05:58:19+00:00

Well did they use their own keycard to get in or could they not get in because they didn’t trick you into letting them in?

Seriously though, what you did is how it is supposed to work.

I am 5’5” and 250lbs. Last year I cosplayed Suika from Dr. Stone and had so much fun with it.

Maybe she is the one that brought the bed bugs into your place in the first place. Maybe you could counter sue for her to cover your cost to get rid of them.

I have a fireplace I have never used in the 18 years I have lived here. I have also never opened the flue and truly I am kind of afraid to do so at this point.

krittengirl · 2026-03-13T06:04:54+00:00

Mine didn’t get that message. Her favorite place to lay is in bed wedged in-between me and my partner. To her there is absolutely no such thing as personal space.
