毫无疑问,又不过是一个无聊的会议。
但是,当戴尔公司信息技术专家Chuck Peterson步入房间那一刻,就知道要发生什么了,房间里是他的75个同事和几个以前从来没有见过的经理。
“他们没人看我,“他说,”他们都背对着我或是看着他们自己的脚“。

PARTⅠTHE FRONT OFFICEINTRODUCTIONThe manager’s RemarksThe aim of a hotel is to create a home away from home for all the travelling guests who need rest, food and drink.The front office of a hotel is not only its “shop window” but also its “nerve center” .The front office staff’s efficiency and personality are of great importance to guest’s vacation or business, and indeed, the hotel’s operation itself are made or ruined.The front office staff seem to “do it all” - receive reservations, register guests, assign rooms, distribute baggage, store guests’ valuables, provide information, deliver mails and messages, exchange foreign currencies, check room occupancies, check guests out and so on.In order to fulfil these tasks, the staff must have a neat and smart appearance, good manners, adaptability, knowledge of languages and a head for figures. The most important of all the qualities is a real liking for people and a warm desire to help them.Besides, front desk staff should encourage a nd settle the guests’ complaints. That will soothe an unhappy guest and reveal the hotel’s problems so that the operation can be bettered.In short, all staff ought to remember that the hotel will enjoy greater financial success only with the greater s atisfaction the guests receive from the “home away from home”.Word ListRemark n.陈述、言语Nerve n.神经efficiency n.效率personality n.个性Realization n.实现Operation n.经营Ruin υ.崩溃、毁灭Reservation n.预订Register υ.登记、注册Assign υ.分配、指定Baggage n.行李Distribute υ.分发Deliver υ.投递、递交Occupancy n.居住、占用Currency n.货币smart α.活泼的、精明的appearance n.外表good manners 彬彬有礼adaptability n.适应性figure n.数字settle υ.解决、安定complaint n.投诉、抱怨soothe υ.安抚reveal υ.显示financial α.财政的、财经的satisfaction n.满意Useful ExpressionsNo t only … but also … 不仅…而且…to seen to 似乎,好像……a liking for 对……喜爱So that …以便To check SB.

In a sense, it is possible to say that a clean and attractive guest room is the product that the hotel sells.The main duty of the housekeeping department staff is to see to the cleanliness and good order of all rooms in the hotel. The laundry and valet service and many personal services are also parts of their jobs. And they must coordinate the work closely with the front office.This department as a whol e is required to make the guest’s stays comfortable and pleasing. Any reasonable request must be fulfilled. But good service means more than fulfilling requests. Whenever and wherever possible, the staff should offer to do extra things for the guests. What is more, whenever there is an opportunity to “sell”, the staff should take it and suggest that guests use the hotel services as much as possible. They should make sure that they are really selling what the guest wants to buy.It should be noted that the most important characteristic in the housekeeping department, and indeed throughout the hotel world, is the willingness to serve and please the guests. The housekeeping staff, such as chamber maids, housemen, linenroom attendants, supervisors and housekeepers, can do a great deal to assure a high business repeat and occupancy rate, not only through the efficiency in their jobs but also through their heartfelt warmth in serving the guests.Word Listhousekeeping department房务部fulfil v. 履行、完成backbone n. 脊梁、脊柱、骨干attractive a. 有吸引力的product n.产品、产量cleanliness n. 清洁laundry n. 洗衣valet n. 洗烫工personal a. 个人的、私人的coordinate v. 协调comfortable a.舒适的pleasing a. 使人愉快的business repeat rate 回客率opportunity n. 机会characteristic a.特有的;n.特性willingness n.愿意chamber n. 房间maid n. 侍女、少女chamber maid 客房女服务员houseman n. 杂务工supervisor n. 管理员、主管assure v. 使确信、保障heart-felt a. 感人肺腑的Useful Expressionsin a senseto see toto coordinate…with…as a wholeIt should be noted that…as much as possibleto make sure 在某种意义上注意、负责与……合作,与……协商作为整体而言应当注意尽量多弄清、使确定、使确信UNIT 1Guiding the Guests to Their Rooms1-1 Recognizing the GuestsScene: The Bellows leave the elevator.The floor attendant (F A) steps forward to welcome them.。
