Robo Hobo Homo #038

After the house meeting, I had to learn how to run the desk in the lobby. It was the standard fare; a demonstration of rules in writing followed up immediately with how 40% of that gets ignored. And I, a robot, get to figure out which 40% that is with no social intuition whatsoever.

For example, you're not supposed to be sleeping during the day unless you have permission. This guy on my left is sleeping in a chair in the dining area. Folks aren't waking him up, but then I don't know if a staffer, like Daryl, were to come by, if they would wake him up and give him a warning, give him an infraction straight up (one of the five needed to kick you out), or simply ignore him. I just don't know because it's all arbitrary to my robot senses.

Anyway, lobby training was pretty iffy, but all my shifts are from 0200 to 0400 on weekends, so I'm not too worried.

Maybe I'll do some ride-alongs in the evening as my schedule permits though.
