"One FlyerTalk user reported using the IBM corporate code for 14 years, 80–100+ nights a year, and never once being asked for ID.

"I mean, when I worked night audit, the whole night is practically a break after like 1am. It was usually just me and one other guy running the place (the other guy is just cleaning and doesn’t know how to do front desk). We don’t get an actual “lunch break” where we have to clock out for 30 minutes because we can’t leave the desk completely unoccupied (unless you were going to the bathroom or tension to a guest away from the desk or something). And we just ate at our desks if we were hungry, not sitting in the back."

"I had to change my email to my personal email account. My IT sucks, I have had so many joe.smith1 to joe.smith9 at my corporate name dot Com. Why I like to get my folio in person and on my email.

IT still has not figured out how to link everything to Concur for hotels. And it's a huge company"
