I am glad that rediff has provided the true picture abt the hotel industry. My brother who works in one of best 5 star hotel chains is paid peanuts in comparison to the work he puts in. And the worst part is the management ensures that my brother and others who are taken as trainees and moved from traineeship of one designation to traineeship of higher designation! There are days when he has worked for two shifts at a strech and gone for days without a holiday. Given the margins in this industry, I wonder what keeps the hotel chains from giving their staff better salaries. I wonder if the situation abroad is similar.
