WHO YOU ARE Your past experiences have led you to understand that there is art + science to the how and what of preparing and caring for a hotel room. You enjoy the solitude of completing your daily board but also love seeing the smile on a co-worker's face when they walk into their last room and find you've already made the bed! You are someone who understands the smallest details can make the biggest impact. You know hospital corners aren't just for hospitals, and the perfect crease on a bed sheet makes you smile. When you see a pair of loose shoes, you need to make sure they are perfectly aligned. You love feeling the warmth of freshly laundered linen. It doesn't matter where you are, you can't help yourself from refolding the bathroom towels. No matter how crazy your day was, you always find time to make sure your cart is ready for the next day.
