Welcome to CrazyHotelWorkers!

 
 





what is chw?
CrazyHotelWorkers is:

"An organization for the hospitality industry; providing peer counseling, continuing education, and networking oportunities to all interested current and former hospitality professionals."

In that regard, the LJ community is an extension of all of the above. Feel free to ask for advice on a tough issue, post links to articles you've read that you think will benefit the community, or just post about your day.

how to join
Click the link at the top of this page to join CrazyHotelWorkers. Then, fill out our new member survey. We will approve your membership as soon as possible.

Please remember that we do require that you be a current or former hospitality employee, and do ask questions in the survey to verify your information. The information we ask for is only provided to the MOD team and is only used to verify your eligibility and for demographics information.

the rules
First off, we'd like to welcome all the new members to the community. We're happy you found us and we hope you will fit in and feel comfortable here.
Our community has been around for 5 years now, and has developed into a close, friendly community. The CrazyHotelWorkers MOD Team hopes to be able to preserve the sense of camaraderie that has developed here.

With that in mind, we unveil:

The 4th Edition "CrazyHotelWorkers Rules to Live by!"


1. Be Nice – Hate the guests, hate your coworkers, but don’t hate on other CHW members. Snarking our community or its members will get you banned.


2. Misbehavers – It works just like the hotel. First is a polite warning. Second is the stern warning. Third time you get evicted. Appeal to Management via http://help.crazyhotelworkers.com/
We reserve the right to remove you from the community without warning in the event that you post threatening a specific person, spam the community, or discuss your participation in any illegal activities. In this event, we may also report your post to the proper authorities if necessary.

3. The Three Rules of Formatting

a) Cut – If it’s longer than 20 lines, has pictures, or has video USE A LJ-CUT.

b) Edit – Use spell-check, punctuation, default font/size/color, and NO CHATSPEAK!

c) Revise – When referring to a previous post, provide a link.
We reserve the right to warn you to edit your post to conform with our community’s formatting rules, and to remove said post if the editing is not completed in a timely manner.

4. Tag – Tag your posts.


Over the past 5 years, the community has grown immensely. We have gained the attention of the media in several countries. Our community has been mentioned on NPR, in USA Today, the New York times, the Guardian (a UK paper), and several other places. CrazyHotelWorkers never intended to be in the media spotlight, however, we feel that the fact that we have been is something to consider when posting. In this regard, we ask that you please consider using the "members only" option when making any post which mentions a specific person or group (or don't mention specifics at all). If you have questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to email us at help@crazyhotelworkers.com. Thank you for your understanding.
