A simulation and a case study from this kind of work, set in a grand old hotel in the city with a busy bar and entrance. They are fictional.

The kind of days you could have

Good days

  • A guest pulls out a wallet to thank you, and you say it is a pleasure
  • The bar is spotless and the first guests of the night notice
  • An older guest arrives frail and leaves smiling, and you made the trip easier

Hard days

  • Heavy bags up three flights while the lift is out of order
  • A rowdy group makes the lobby loud and you are the first person they see
  • Cleaning up the mess at the end of a very long night
