Additional Information
My ultimate dream job now is to manage a few vacation rentals, or a small property with vacation rentals (BNB). I have the knowledge to list the space, greet and communicate with guests, clean, stock, and maintain repairs to units. I can establish and maintain the records for budget and inventory logs. It is a rewarding and positive job. In reality I would enjoy a steady hotel housekeeping job which i am capable of handling due to many years of experience in NWA.
