Where 'zactly do you think oil comes from? a similiar process by nature.
what about our umpteen to the millionth descendants, (or the coackroaches descendants) who need the oil our sewage was to provide to them 50k years from now.. but harvesting not only existing oil, but pre-oilotic algae now-- we are dooming their technological re-evolution!
picture a schlong, outline on bluejeans, emerging from the 'zipper' and that reaches to the kneecaps,
and swings from left to right as the individual walks....
The book was hands down the most important database at the hotel no backup was possible, if lost it would have been a nightmare to re-create..
it held two pages for each week of the year, (there were too many rooms to fit on one page)
it literally had to be passed from person to person during the day at an alarming rate
it's the only paper item I've ever used reinforcing rings on (and been glad of their existence)
occasionally a page would get so worn that it would be re-created by copying, but it was annoying because that stiff page wouldn't match the feel of the rest
when it was say, 25 jun and we had callers on the line for 4th jul, we'd spiel whatever details seemed likely before we'd give up the book to someone else (hissing, "take 415 for the holiday and I'll kill ya-- I'm selling it right now..")
I know more history than I've experienced myself. But, in the period JUST BEFORE pc's were common, our hotel used a 1-Micros Cash register to keep track of all the rooms 2- 3 ring binder with 'graph' paper to keep track of availability 3- boxes like 4X6 index card boxes for actual reservations
process, you call the hotel, ask for a certain date, the agent steals the "book" from whichever phone (of three) it's sitting at, and looks at the two pages (rooms 1-40 on page one, 41-80 on page 2) and quotes availability and room descriptions/accomodations available without quoting rates-- this enables you to give up the book faster.. then using a rate sheet (one taped near every phone) quotes rates & details.. when getting the booking, you fill out a reservation form (about half a sheet of paper sized) with customers & reservation details as soon as possible, you write this name in the book for their room in pencil.. you file the respad in the box for such by name.
a week-ten days later, their deposit (check or money order only) arrives.. you pull the name copy.. get the book- erase the name in pencil, write it again in ink.. then go to the micros and open the 'adv deposit' account.. ring up the check- and it prints a two-line comment on the respad as well.. now file the respad in the index boxes by date of arrival.
guest arrives, fills out stub card on registration card.. you ring up a payment from the advance deposit file, and the balance of what the guest paid at check in.. and print it off
each night, the auditor takes each card one at a time, and posts off the days charges...
at checkout, the balances get zeroed, and the top copy is the guests receipt.
Here (USA) it's common knowledge among those who make frequent dell purchases-- choose earthlink over AOL, because earthlink is easier to remove when you get the box....
Trust me.. download roommaster, play with the sample data.. it'll kill you with ease of use.
it does require win xp pro on all terminals..
First year we saved about 1k in postage by emailing our confirmations (independent motel) we also had much better communications because we had sent an email to everyone at point of booking, and again when their reservations had a deposit.. if we never recieved a deposit, 'usta be we'd cancel the bookings, now we send an email ahead, then recapture about half, then cancel the rest...
I have confirmation letters that know the difference between a rack rate, and a special that require a different cancel time, and prints the date they must cancel by (3 days ahead, or 14) automatically..
it can produce 99% of it's reports to PDF...
pay the pony, at a 100 rooms, get the enterprise edition, the extra reporting is well worth it.
THE ONLY THING it does not do that I wish it did today (Robert, are ya listening? I'm sure you've figured out who this is from the slacker typing style) is let me track rooms completed by which housekeeper... where the desk types them in, and I also wish I could move line items off the DESK FOLIOS only, so I could recapture missed call accounting interfaces (due to desk, not software error) to the rooms they belong to cleanly.....
free download to play with, never used anything better
Hands down THE BEST software if you like to run a hotel.. bar.. integrates nicely..lots of add ons, evey serialed upgrade has just rocked with wish fullfillment.. the forum is good for 'how do i's although the owner/author/president can get snippy when he feels a post just isn't appropriate....

I've worked days inn, marriott, best western, one holiday inn briefly, and three independents, innquest rocks..
you can create custom confirmation letters that adjust to the details of the bookings, with variables you set and using boolean logic.
try it.. I can't tell you enough how much I think it rocks. yes- I'll gladly be known as a innquest fanboy...
open sndrec. tap rec & stop Decrease speed to whatever length required.
save blank file.
now open blank file, saveas new name, and use that blank to record over.
I have blanks for 60 minute casettes, (30 mins long) and 90 minute casettes (45 mins long) named blank30.wav and blank45.wav I open one, and hit record..
I never have sound level issues I can't fix with the sound mixer.
the actual real bonus to this, is that sndrec32 is the easiest tool I've found to disect a casette length material into it's different parts. I've found nothing easier than listening, and 'delete before & after current position is unmatched for simplicity. I save the entire wav first.. then open it and slice out the 2-end songs... save first track. etc...
Slashdot Mirror
NJ unemployment law- unemployment is given when the reason a person is no longer employed is "not their fault"
The owner of my facility fired someone from the clerical position they held, for being stupid.
This person having also held a real estate license...
The fired individual filed for unemployment, and the owner of the business freaked out... and disputed the claim, as the employee had been fired.
the response from the state? it was not the fired persons "fault" they are stupid... claim approved.
which claimed the same..
after a weekend marathon of playing descent, tweaking the cyberman, and playing again
I got it to where I could play the game better than with any other combination of hardware.
Unfortunately, by the nextweekend I couldn't remember which twist was which axis.. no muscle memory to play with.
the curve is very steep

trust me- if you air naked humans, you'll find out very quickly that you violated something.
do it again, they'll send you to federal prison, where you'll find a whole 'nother meaning of 'violated'
