Children in the pool area, no adult present
The pool in the hotel I worked for was small and shallow enough that we were not required to have a life guard. We still usually tried to have one present when we were scheduled to have sports team in house, but we were not able to get one for that weekend.
The computer in my office had two screens, on evenings like this, I would keep one of those to see the feed from the camera at all times. So I am working at my desk, at around 8PM I see a group of kids, about 8 of them, probably aged 7 to 12. I look closely to see if I can find an adult amoung them, but I can't see one. 536
I quickly get up and straight to the pool area and just like I thought, no adult. At that point, I am livid, so I tell them to get out and to get back to their rooms.
Each parent at check in signed the contract explaining the hotel's rules for sports team. Of course, it is written in there that kids cannot be in the pool area unattended (it is also written near the door to the area). I am not sure what's worst, letting them go to the pool on their own or that they just don't know where their kids are while they are getting drunk in the hallways (another thing in the contract that they are not supposed to do).
Can you imagine the crap we would have received from them if something bad had happened? I wish they would understand that hotel staff are not paid enough to do their work and be nannies at the same time. 1015
