yay for friday!

Hanapepe Hanging Bridge

I'm stoked its friday and plan to do little or nothing this weekend. I'm still a little sick, so hopefully I can get rid of it before I head out for the big island next weekend.

Today I worked with Tracey in accounting and it was cool to see how the department is organized and structured. Everyone has their set duties, but if someone needs a little help they all team together. June is a very busy time for them since the owners of the hotel follow a fiscal year and need the end of year report in June (but corporate follows a calendar year and that means they have 2 year-end closings. . . talk about extra work!). My impression is that accounting is very much like the detective and following up constantly, whether outstanding checks or just getting payments from vendors. That's why I like revenue management so much, because it involves numbers and analysis but also other things as well. I finished up the day and now I'm ready for the weekend!
