Last summer, I accepted my mother's advice to take a part-time job in order to make my summer vocation more meaningful and exercise my social communication abilities. I worked in a big restaurant and the work lasted for one month.
I had heard something about some potential rules in the tourism industry before, but I had no experience about it. However, on my first day of work, I knew something about it by chance.
On that day, when I was talking to the manager about some work in his office, a phone call from the executive chef interrupt our talk. Then, the manager spent a long time answering that call. According to their words, I knew something that was really astonishing. A group of tourists came for lunch in our restaurant. They ordered two tables and the cost of each table was 2500 yuan. However, the manager asked the executive chef to prepare the food at the standard of 2000 yuan of each table. What was more, the manager told the guide that they all knew the ' rule ', and the guide could get 400 yuan and the restaurant could get 600 yuan. Upon hearing these words, I felt very shocked. How could they do this and even called it as a ' rule '! Even now, I still feel angry about these problems. As I know this ' rule ', I will not trust any Chinese travel agents any more.
In my opinion, our government should take effective action to handle these problems to guarantee our profits.
very attractive title, very unbelievable shock.Tkank you for telling me the truth. Another thing I want to say is that we also can make a difference
ReplyDeleteActually the restaurant earned more than 600. I guess it is more than 2600 yuan...
ReplyDeleteen~~ Tourism industry is really full of hidden rules, the guides will persuade you to buy something so that they can profit from it. Moreover, if we are not willing to buy their things, the guides will give us contemptuous looks. It is high time that the government should take measures to reform the rules of tourism industry.
ReplyDelete...I was speechless after reading this blogger. The tourist agents always act this way in china. We should be wary of them
ReplyDeleteThat's what happens in China, everyday. Those in higher position collaborate together to cheat the customers. I'm not sure whether the Govt will take efforts, since they are also a part of the collaboration
