I was employed at the world mart in Long Beach Washington as a housekeeper for 2 weeks I'm no longer working with the company because I cleaned 25-30 condos over a two week period an received 3$ .My experience with the staff was amazing all the housekeepers are hard working an friendly! At this establishment when you leave a tip in the room it doesn't go to the person cleaning the room it goes to the person that cleaned the room prior so you have to turn your tips in (me, being in the hospitality industry for 20 years it has always gone to the housekeeper cleaning the room) frustrated that at the end of it every day I was getting no tips as well as my trainer Jan! This was extremely frustrating knowing that I cleaned 5-6 ,two and three bedroom messy condos an receiving nothing was frustrating ! and then to have to turn around and turn the tip in that was in the room and still received nothing at the end of the day every now and then we would walk into a room and there would be a $20 bill sitting on the counter Jan being a good person turned it in at the end of the day ! So frustrating!! I let this go on for 2 weeks and at the end of the two weeks I got $3!!! I brought this up to my boss Becky and she blamed it on the shareholders saying that you guys don't leave tips very often!!! I don't believe that for one min !! There is a problem with their tipping system and someone needs to look into it !! Cuz I have more faith in the shareholders than the people that are run it !! I had several people checking out tell me they left a good tip! I know that you shareholders are leaving a lot more in the rooms than the housekeepers are getting and that upsets me! Instead of maybe looking into why we're not receiving any tips she blamed it on the customer and I don't want to work for a company that is going to be like that !!! Stay blessed
