I've worked as a maid for a long time but am tired of driving to everyone's homes, so I'm thinking of trying out a job as a housekeeper in a hotel. Is there anyone out there who has done both jobs and can tell me a bit about the differences? I would appreciate any advice at all.

I think the pros of working at a hotel is that you would work standard hours in the same building everyday. You will also work with an entire team, and will probably get bonuses, tips, and other benefits.

There is a BIG difference and a hotel was a much better experience. You get steady pay, tips, a regular schedule, and don't need to worry about weird requests and yappy dogs.

Had an interview today, for RN OnCall position. This is an extremely difficult position, but I bring not only a preference to work the hours they need but the experience and credentials to qualify for the upper range of the salary (RN, MSN, CHPN, 5 years hospice experience). I asked for the range and he gave the range then immediately stated that I would qualify for mid range. My goal is to find a similar position to the one I’m working now and add 20-30% to my income, the high range would meet
