A day in the life of a Housekeeping Attendant
07:45 After your cup of coffee or tea you report to the Housekeeping Manager's office. During the handover, the room lists are distributed so you know which rooms need your service today.
08:00 You collect your trolley from the service pantry, and you make sure everything is there so you do not miss out on your shift. You will start cleaning the first room on your list.
10:00 The first rooms are clean and tidy again and you and your colleagues go to the canteen to enjoy a well-deserved cup of coffee or tea.
11:00 You have a brief meeting with the Floor Supervisor regarding some last-minute changes in the rooms you must clean. One room wants an extra bed, another room stays a day longer, and a third room wants extra towels.
12:00 Enjoy your lunch with colleagues from other departments.
12:30 You ensure your trolley is replenished and continue where you left off.
14:00 Time for a short break before you start cleaning the last rooms.
15:30 You have finished cleaning your rooms, and after the floor supervisor has inspected them all you will make sure everything is ready and back in place for the following day.
16:00 Time to go home!
