this was prolly me

Sounds like they are trying to turn the tables and out-^^HOOS^^ you.

haha

-"otm bro :)"

-"you are a saintly saintly man"

just now

-"you a great man. you are a great asset to this company."

:))))))))))))))))))))

hoos someone actually took a cookie from you then said "you a great man. you are a great asset to this company."?

sorry but this is even harder to believe than your high school stories

I believe it was actually "You're a great man. You are a great asset to this company."

Homie people get mad amped about a hot cookie when they've been travelling for 9 hours or whatever, dead serious.

i dont know what kind of bizarro-world high school you went to, deez, but hoos's stories from that time are some of the easiest shit to believe that i've ever encountered in my life

(what is a doubletree cookie?!)

HOOS works at Doubletree hotel.

I stayed in a Doubletree last weekend. I did not receive any cookies. Hoos, you slippin'.

Hoos: you not one smart cokkie

I had to lock some old church ladies out of their room for some bullshit accounting stuff and felt like an asshole. Then these old church ladies showed up ready to wail on me. Key line:

"I'ma lose my religion and go secular on you, boy"

<3 <3 <3

tell me u gave them cookies

hell yes i gave them cookies

hoos there's a torrent with recipes and one of them is the double tree cookie recipe and i thought of you

XD

"I'ma lose my religion and go secular on you, boy"

good gawd!!!

...and thanking you muchly!!!

did you appease them with cookies?

did you do them

they did go secular, max

HOOS did their credit card get declined or something?

yeah they paid w/business check that was $100 short and the card on file declined

dunno why the fuck my people let them in the room with a short check and no cc

guys...

HOOS has "people"

like i felt bad about locking them out cause aw church ladeez & shit but come on fd people that's super basic cover-your-own-ass stuff no matter the puppy eye circumstances

yeah i got promoted + a raise and have people now btw so that's cool i guess

aww lil hooslets

congrats on the people hoos!!!

congrats, hoos.

more tales of old church ladies losing their religion and getting all secular on your ass would be appreciated.

take it to the Church, hoos!

thakig yall <3 <3

now i gotta get ready for the madness

me:"Well sir I'd probably have the cabbie take you to 6th and Red River"
me:"Red River, is that like for all the women on the period?"
me:"......"
me:"I made a joke, Red River, is that like for on the period, you know?"
me:"Right...."
me:"Not a very good joke..."

that was a dialog with some foreign dude i c/pd from AIM, hence the "me:" on every line

you should have changed half of the "me's" to "foreign dude" so it would be less confusing

yes thank you

hoos:"Well sir I'd probably have the cabbie take you to 6th and Red River"
gr8080:"Red River, is that like for all the women on the period?"
hoos:"......"
gr8080:"I made a joke, Red River, is that like for on the period, you know?"
hoos:"Right...."
gr8080:"Not a very good joke..."

^^i fixed it

gr8080:"Not a very good joke..."

^^i fixed it

ha doubletree is private, scratch that. still, this is really amazing. i can't believe companies are still pulling this stuff

The Fitness Center, now to be referred to as the PERSONAL REALITY ENHANCEMENT CENTER

^^ tbh if i were a guest this would probably confuse me to the point of frustration like "WHERE THE HELL IS THE GYM"

WHERE IN THE SPIRITUAL REALITY PUNISHMENT CENTER IS THE PERSONAL REALITY ENHANCEMENT CENTER

haha yeah my guess is this is some kind of consultancy snowjob done with 0 real input from the public. nobody would agree to have their hotel room called a "dream chamber"

u guys hoos made this up

I want to reserve space at Doubletree but only if they'll agree to call it the "hot monkey luv chamber" instead of "dream chamber" while I'm there.

hoosultancy snowjob, 0 real input from ilx

I should clarify guys: we're franchised, not corporate. We're owned by a small upstart out of Cali and we're their first full-service property, so they're sort of learning as they go. I don't think Hilton Corporate would ever truck with this shit.

And apparently these tactics have worked before! They're bringing dude in because as GM of another property in Austin he took some Marriott from #10 to #1 in its comp set using tactics like these. And he's apparently putting it all on the line: word from the bossman is that if we don't start seeing turnaround in 6 weeks he doesn't get paid.

is dude's name Dreamweaver

He wants us to wear foam cowboy hats on football game days and shit its n/n/l

hoos if i move to austin can i join this burgeoning dream movement

its a movement baby

omfg A+++++++++++++++

where does fuckin w/ magic enter this dreamscape

I've actually re-pitched it to my new boss. They're all about looking for ways to make this place more memorable and interesting for guests and I feel this would be a dope way to do it. I'm rusty as I haven't fucked w/magic in about 6 months after the last attempt fell apart, but I could get back up to snuff without too much effort.

excellent!

Doubletree Hotels, Suites, Resorts and Clubs present a chocolate chip cookie to each guest at check-in. Synonymous with Doubletree hospitality, the cookie has been used to differentiate the Doubletree hotel brand from its competition.

Doubletree gives out approximately 29,000 chocolate chip cookies each day, and a total of over 125,000,000. Each cookie weighs a 2½ ounces and has an average of 20 chocolate chips. The cookies are currently manufactured by The Christie Cookie company. In June 2002, Doubletree gave its 100,000,000th cookie.

Dude interrupts my phone greeting:

"Justin stop. Stop. You have turned my sweet dream into a remarkable nightmare."

I gotta tell you, if I had a hotel being all "sweet dreams" at me I'd probably make a complaint - I mean it sounds crepey! WTF management.

not if it was a steen dreem

No doubt! I no longer say "Sweet dreams" to people I'm setting the wakeup call for. I feel gross just saying it.

xp

i would lie on the bed with my shoes on eating the chocolate chip cookie and jeering about suggest dreams between chomps.

suggest dreams!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

in order to burn off the calories from 1 doubletree cookie you'd have to run 2.5 miles

maths prove that god exists, and hates fairness

"you are a champion of men, sir"

was there a ren faire in town?

nah this dude was just weird

sideburns that protruded an inch from his face like some kind of face fro

does this mean you have to fight orcs? i think it might.

i'd be down for that

smash them across the face with my keyb

you and peter jackson have the same attitude to tolkien, is what i'm hearing

Every single time Hilton come into my office to promote their product, they give everyone a Doubletree cookie (followed by a long spiel about why they give out Doubletree cookies). I always say "well, I had a client that really enjoyed their stay at the Hilton South Wharf Melbourne."

The Sweet Dreams (R) concept is catching on, I see:

HOOS, how do you intend to boost your self-esteem now that you'll no longer be receiving a hundred facile compliments a day from people you don't even know over foodstuffs you didn't even bake?

I'm worried about you, bro, and I hope you have plenty of puppies to hug in your dark, cookieless hour.

Had my yearly review today. My manager told me she was going to give me 4.5/5 on supplier relations until I reminded her that no Hilton reps had given me a Doubletree cookie in months. So she bumped me up to 5/5, which she should have done in the first place! Considering that I spent a night at a Crowne Plaza a couple weeks ago and they fed me steak!

i am at the doubletree i used to work at. i am stealing the wireless. no one i know is working and i have gone unrecognized.

i just had a doubletree cookie.

the front desk guy said "i like your hair, man"

there has to be somewhere you can steal wireless from where you don't run that risk. they may not have cookies tho.

doubletree truck went by the gawker offices today to give out free cookies

RIP

???

HOOS please explain!

lol i just haven't worked @ this job in like 2 years and i miss the simple joy of makin someone's day with a cookie

awwww

baking people cookies is one of the great joys of being human, and you don't have to be denied that experience just because you no longer work for some bigass hotel chain.

(although maybe strangers would get suspicious if you stood on a street corner peddling free doubleSTEEN cookies as a way of enticing them to lodge with you for the night)

lol
