    Any job where I can come to work in shorts and sandals every day is a job I'd probably like just because it's always being done in a warm, beach-y, casual environment.

      Among my 3 jobs, which cover 6 shifts over 5 days, 5 of those shifts involve my being in shorts and sneakers. Only the nighttime magic gig at the restaurant one day a week involves me being in long pants, as I dress business professional for that.

      Yeah, it rocks.

          I dunno...if I were on vacation and a muscley, tanned man who worked for the hotel brought me my drinks and was wearing a Speedo, I'd consider the price I paid a bargain.

          That was petty of that lady, I'm kind of glad $50 was all she got from your usually spineless management.

            Sounds like she was having a pretty awesome vacation when, while vying for a discount, she could only think of picking on the server's wardrobe.

              I'd pay extra for that.

              Funny, when I stayed at hotels I always thought I was paying for a safe, clean room to sleep in. Never thought my money somehow bought me the right to demand hotel employees dress a certain way.

                who the hell cares how they are dressed?
                people who think their genitals are made of gold and that the servers are their personal servants or slaves

                or people who want to use any bullshit excuse to whine about how they're entitled to a discount.

                or both.

                      I could understand complaining if they were in ratty, dirty, or really short shorts, that doesn't seem to be the case at all. I wouldn't be a huge fan of them wearing flip flops but just because they can sometimes toss sand in the air when they are flopping but as far as how appropriate they are that would depend on how casual the resort is (some extremely nice, expensive resorts can be quite casual) and sandals on a beach are more than adequate attire.

                        Dave, I think Raveni was suggesting that you cater to this wench, merely that you might have explained things better. I thought something similar when I read the OP, and that it might have helped had you simply said, "That is the wardrobe the management has deemed appropriate for those working on the beach." Or perhaps, "that is the uniform for beach employees."
                        If Dave was catering, he would be wearing shorts and flip-flops.


                        Jester, that's basically what I was trying to say. Stick up for your employees and maybe not every idiot has to get transferred to a supervisor.

                                or give out god knows how much in discounts for reasons that don't ever merit them.
