So that little dive motel I been doing maintenance at was bought by a few investor buddies a couple of months ago, we were told our jobs would be okay things would get better around the property since they had contracted with this larger hospitality management company even raises were on the horizon. Sometime last month my boss the live in property manager tells me her boss says we need to hold off on any big planned projects, so I'm like okay which I thought was odd since we had just cleaned out a room that was a drug den and needed just about everything new and with vacation season a few weeks away in Myrtle Beach I am thinking they wouldn't want to be without every room on the property available. So now fast forward a few weeks to a month later my boss still hasn't received her corporate card, the housekeepers are struggling with supplies and linens my boss is telling her boss I got a stack of unpaid linen supply bills etc. She had been laying money out for basic cleaning supplies which she did get reimbursed for in her paychecks and here I am running short on parts I keep on hand like faucets, toilet parts, receptables, switches, smoke alarms and bulbs. They closed our HD account my boss' boss told her don't worry they are old accounts and they'll be paid we have new accounts and will get you onboard.
So here we are Thursday of this past week my boss says her boss came by for a visit asked if he could take a conference call in an available room said he was in there no more or less than 10 minutes he then came out and says you got a place to talk she goes sure what's going on? He says I want you to know and for you to inform your staff they have until July 10th and the long term stays at the property have until the July 4th weekend to be out. What my boss is being told the investor buds had a side offer for this property that was too good to not accept. My boss was offered to move and keep her job to some motel property the company owns up in North Carolina about 4 hours away she will have all her moving expenses paid and gets to keep her job and benefits. This is by no means a dream job but perfect for a retired guy/gal for pocket cash it was super convenient for me and my (friend - coworker) that lives around the corner, she's semi-retired and it was right up the road from my son's daycare which my daughter would also go to. We were informed of this Friday and supposedly myself and the two housekeepers will be paid a months severance.
