Well here is my life story and How i became a Hotel Heir-ass.
When I was 10 years old my Family bought a liqour store in the suburbs of Detroit. When I turned 14 I used to work every sunday with my dad, filling up the drink coolers and taking out the trash and checking the produce shelfs to make sure everything was full. When I turned 16 and got my first car which was a 94 Jimmy it was 4 years old and my dad gave it to me so that I can go to work everyday after I got off school. I worked 6 days a week for my dad having every saturday off to go party and hang out.
A couple months after i turned 17 me and my dad were working at the store when 3 guys in masks came in with shotguns and made my dad lay on hte ground while the held the guns to my head and made me give them all the money from the register. It was at that point when my dad decided it was time to sell the liqour store and retire. Well after 3 month my dads brother bought the store from us and my dad was on his way to retirement, About 4 months into it he decided he wasn't ready to retire yet so we started looking at new business ideas. That was when he and his friend decided to build a new hotel and get into the hotel business (his freiend had owned a hotel for a while).
Summer of 1999 we broke ground on our first hotel, its a Comfort Suites and in 8 months we had the whole building done and we opened on Feb. 2 2000. In 2003 we decided to build another hotel which is a Hampton Suites, franchised from the Hilton Family, that is how I have a connection with Paris
That hotel opened October of 2003 and we now own two hotels in my family. We are thinking of building another one soon, also. I usually go into the hotels once or twice a week to do some paperwork for my dad and make sure all the employees are doing there jobs correctly and not stealing anything (they can give rooms for free to friends) so basically I go through and check everything to make sure noone is stealing and then I do the monthly reporting for my dad and most of the other paperwork.
The first 2 years that I was in adult I worked at the hotel full time and used to have my laptop with me there and I would work on the adult stuff while sitting at the hotel and keeping an eye on everyone. Now im just the Manager who goes in once a week.
So that is my story to how I became a Hotel Heir-ass.
