Amazing HOTEL!!!
I began gettin sick on my day off after working 9 straight. That's right, 9 days straight of flying multiple flights in day. No wonder I'm not feeling well. When I woke up yesterday I was coughing more and was having a hard time keeping my voice. I made it through the day but the coughing wasn't giving up so easily. I'd been taking good healthy double doeses of Nyquil at home. At 1 AM here in Fargo, North Dakota (where it was only 7 degrees at the time) I was walking to the nearest gas station buying MORE Nyquil so that I could sleep. This morning though, I was 10x worse. I couldn't swallow, headache, and wasn't having difficulty breathing. I knew breakfast was ending early (9AM here) but I couldn't drag myself out of bed. I finally awoke at 9:45 AM and made my way downstairs to find breakfast completely finished and cleaned up and put away. DEVASTING!!! I asked the front desk with my barely there voice if I could possibly have some milk (I always bring my own cereal). There were two staff members enjoying thier coffee in the breakfast area and to my surprise, we're extremely caring. When I asked for milk they pffered me cereal, yogurt, and fruit. When they realized that I was ill they jumped up and made me some lemon ginseng hot tea with lemon and made sure I had extra to take to my room with me. Most hotels NEVER EVER do this. You miss breakfast...well doesn't that suck for you. Many would have sent you to walk in the weather to the gas station to get your milk and certainly wouldn't have made tea for you. I noticed the manager at the front desk and complemented him on his amazing caring staff. As a flight attendant we know we're on our own when we're in hotels and to stay somewhere where the staff honestly cares, there is nothing better. Lucky for me we stay here 2 more additional nights. Hopefully I can start to feel better.
