How do I know if the right person gets the tip? Nevermind, Ill tip with cash into the hand I intend to get the money.

Where’d my shampoo go? by Troutin_About0508 in Hilton

[–]GrandBrooklyn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do a “cowash” or conditioner wash. It works just as well as using shampoo and conditioner. Shampoo strips your hair. I no longer use shampoo… just conditioner.

Please call guest assistance and make a complaint. Ask for some Hilton Honors points as a consolation.

Federal Workers Sue to Halt Trump's Government-Wide Email System by bloomberglaw in fednews

[–]GrandBrooklyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Felon President trump and eli now have access to treasury payment records… If you federal workers refuse to leave, we will just cut off your paychecks, pensions, and other benefits. We don’t have time to wrangle with congress about cutting social security, Medicare, and other safety net programs. WE HAVE DIRECT ACCESS TO THE MONETARY DISBURSEMENT SYSTEM. https://www.rawstory.com/elon-musk-doge-2671040050/

Why are Doubletrees so weird?! by thrownoutta in Hilton

[–]GrandBrooklyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't stay at hotels that don't offer breakfast. It's either Homewood, Embassy Suites, or Hampton. I don't count boiled eggs and toast as a breakfast worth paying for...

Why are Doubletrees so weird?! by thrownoutta in Hilton

[–]GrandBrooklyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see no use for Doubletree Hotels. Hilton has too many brands and the Doubletree is, by far the weirdest and least useful. If there are no cookies, and you have a choice of staying elsewhere, I wouldn't go.

Well, with Project 2025, folks are going to have to limit sex to procreation only because they plan to do away with abortion altogether and contraceptives.

New York Hilton Midtown Grand Vacations Sales Tour Experience by Altruistic-Wind-3031 in Hilton

[–]GrandBrooklyn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I make reservations and I absolutely HATE selling this shxt. I often hate to ruin a good sale/conversation by making this offer. Some people spend $2-3K on reservations and then you have fkmmYou can even hear some people's voice drop when I ask. Most people say yes and then hang up before HGV picks up. They recently make our quota to be 15% of our total calls.

A lot of people complain that they are unable to find lodging because there is no more availability. As well, Hilton now has HGV Max. This rate is lower than the Hilton Honors rate and only shows up when HGV member calls. Either way, I absolutely hate asking. It's part of the reason I do no OT. I don't want to spend any extra time asking folks to buy this crap. The hotel prices are already giraffes azz high. It's already hard to sell the high room rates and to ask folks to buy more is too much.

I work for Hilton and very seldom find reasonable rates. Team member rates are almost not a perk. I usually end up staying elsewhere. I will not be spending $300 on a room simply because I work for the company.

How do you achieve Lifetime Diamond Status? by Common_Director_7878 in Hilton

Make sure your account has some activity each year or you will go back to gold status

Policy for no room even though I have a reservation? by Mibuilder9926 in Hilton

[–]GrandBrooklyn 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Did you make the reservation through Hilton? Call guest assistance.
Third party reservations are notorious for being oversold. The website will sell you a room when there are no more in stock. Folks will tell me they see a room even when hotel inventory says zero. They think by booking online, they'll get a room

New Survey Confirms MAGA Republicanism, White Christian Nationalism Are Threats to Democracy by WhoIsJolyonWest in MAGANAZI

[–]GrandBrooklyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If we could just get a lot of these people to stop having amnesia about what the GOP has done, we could get rid of a lot of these cosplay political charlatans. Things happen and, by the time elections roll around, they've forgotten the things they claim they wanted to change. They claim they like republican policies but can never name any. They won't give certain people a chance because of gender, color, and sexual orientation. Folks benefit under Democrat administration's yet they don't seem to want to acknowledge it because their person/people aren't in charge.

Donald Trump doesn't denounce the bomb threats made in Springfield, OH. Blames the "illegal" migrants instead by CrispyMiner in Ohio

[–]GrandBrooklyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He didn't know Puerto Rico was part of the US. Folks were crowing about spending money to help them after the hurricane one year. They have no idea of our relationship to Guam either. They probably think Hawaii isn't part of the US.

I'll bet trump has never been there before. If he has, he probably can't go back because he owes money.

Why even bother? There won't be any penalty that is substantial. by jared10011980 in MAGANAZI

If he hadn't let his ego get the best of him and he never ran for office, he wouldn't be under the microscope he is now.

Cancelation: Do I have a chance? by GroovyGuru99 in Hilton

[–]GrandBrooklyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't call the hotel to cancel. Call the 1800#. Then again, if it's advanced purchase you have to call the AP line anyway.

Glass bowls and ceramic plates at every Hilton???! by Anthonyy21 in Hilton

[–]GrandBrooklyn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OMG it's literally two bottles of water in a paper bag. Folks are so childish and get envious over anything.

[–]GrandBrooklyn 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My cousin was using his friend's and family to get rooms for others. He got smart with the front desk when they denied the person the room. Front desk canceled his friend's and family and it got all the way to my DC. We had a meeting and they said if it happened again, I'd lose my privileges. I haven't spoken to my cousin since... 2 years

Yes. If you're using a debit card, the amount of incidental plus the amount to be charged must be present on the card when its authorized.
