Marriott Hired Me ... Yipppeeeee

Hey Guys isn't it funny I spoke about Marriott and I am now working for Courtyard by Marriott Pune City Centre as Front Office Associate... Well There are Loads of things to talk about ... But as of Now going to Concentrate on my Thesis more ... I have few things to share few things to Talk about .... well for time being .. I must say I need to learn a lot .... ... well will put the Plan here later as of now .... you Take care ...

Hospitality Scene Pune

Well Since I am back in Pune wanted to talk about hospitality( especially hotels ) in pune... Hotels in Pune are amazing .. yes all the major Brands are coming in Pune and Marriott already has three hotels here. Among the promising ones are Ista, Langham coming soon... Gateway coming soon... Holiday inn in pre-opening... SO does this mean there will be loads of jobs for graduates and hospitality students... If I can say so yes... but Freshers be ready to get peanuts for 12-14 hours shifts 6days a week not 5 days...  Some how I feel the Human resource departments of most of the hotels are sluggish.. moreover because of the IT and ITES companies I suppose.. They pay more than Hotel would....i suppose thats why the best ones are in IT and ITES and the drainage is in hotels ...This is my Experience.... But Marriott stays ahead of them... SO HR's of Marriott I am happy with you... ( SO Hire me lol)  Give your views if at all possible.... what do you think about hotels in pune... Well I want to say Something ... Ritz- Carlton come to Pune Please .... Take care and Enjoy.... 

SOCIAL MEDIA IS IT A PLACE ?

 Hi Guys Been long time ... I nearly stopped blogging. I am not sure if there is a word like blogging lol, it has red line below it when I am typing. ... anyway ... I am sure if you are reading this you will have a account on facebook or twitter or orkut or myspace... or some other social networking site. So what are your views about social media. do you think we can call it a place to hang out ? Are we really getting to a point where we no longer have adda's (not the social networking site) where we used to meet our friends. Is it the place where people will go for shopping .. can it really become a place so that we no longer go to highstreet and shop on facebook instead. yes thats right some retail companies are coming up with their retail stores on facebook and who knows after 10-12 years you no longer go to grocery store you posts list on the wall of the store (or widget which are being developed.) or you click on your phone ( will it have Android or Apple OS... god knows who will win forget windows I dont think it will come up something for phone so strong to beat both of these guys) As of now would love to hear your comment on this topic. Next topic Coming up would be on something everyone loves  Holidays and Travel and I will posts some of my Top ten Holidays list which I would like to go on....

 So please do comment and let me know your holiday ideas as well

Cheers
