But I do know, that for that short video I admired the compassion and empathy he spoke with on behalf of his constituents.

The Headlines & The Realities of Hospitality
I have worked in the hospitality industry since 1990, I was hooked from the start and knew I did not want to do anything else. For 30 years, it has always been fast paced, frenetic and at times chaotic even. I saw it as an Industry that would always provide opportunities to those that worked hard, and even in the downtimes there would be work available.
