Someoni, You'll have a great winter in ADH. Which hotel are you the night porter for? If you are on KP duties as well my advise to you would be to take some marigolds! The sking is great and if you are working mainly in the evenings you should have plenty of moutain time. There are also some great bars for nights out and with lots of Crystal workers based in the resort you will meet loads of people very easily. Not long to go now....

katski, I believe that Crystal's budgets may well just about stretch to rubber gloves for the kitchen.

Really, when did they up the budget?

DB, stop being silly - you have no idea how much anyone spends on cleaning and kitchen products.

My first ski holiday was in a crystal chalet and the budget was a topic of discussion.
PS They let men in kitchens and Sainburys these days too.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Damn right. When did you last buy so much as a Brillo pad, DB?

DB, Someoni will be working in a hotel, which means his budget will actually be managed rather than kept in a jar in small coinage by some kid just out of school.  (Sorry - irritating-amateurish-chalets-grrr rant.)

You know it makes sense.

Ooo dear I seem to have inadvertently hit a raw nerve. Hadn't really thought about the budget side of things....was thinking more along the lines of just make sure you use them! Otherwise with the cold weather you'll end up with cracked and very sore fingers rather quickly and it's not fun. Also it's not very manly (I'm assuming you are male if you are a night porter as well but please correct me if I'm wrong) but get some hand cream as well
