I like Holiday Inn. We stay there all around the world. Some of them are really nice and they have a free breakfast that isn't half bad.

As long as the hotel complies with all state and local laws, babooze union members have nothing to whine about. You knew the conditions of the job when you started, what has changed? Or are you working too hard? Don't like working there, leave. Find another job. Plenty more workers behind you willing to take the job. Union or non union, doesn't matter. Give us a break.
