Sailing boat, the only seven-star hotel joint office in the world, has 56 floors and a height of 32 1 m. From a distance, the Sailing Hotel is a 56-story boat-shaped building with a height of 32 1 m. Because the hotel is modeled by sails, there are water-related themes everywhere in the hotel. As soon as you enter the hotel door, there will be different water spraying methods from time to time, each of which is carefully designed. It takes about 15 ~ 20 minutes to change the water spraying method. The smallest room is 170 square meter presidential suite, with 202 sets in total. The most luxurious suite is the 780m2 Royal Suite, located on the 25th floor of the hotel, with a cinema, two bedrooms and two living rooms. China employees in Sailing Hotel actually account for 10% to 20% of the total employees. Johnny, Senior Sales Manager of Jumeirah Group, explained that since China is one of the top ten tourist countries of Sailing Hotel, China employees can provide better service to guests from China. The source also revealed that many tourists from Europe and America will spend $200 to visit the whole hotel, but relatively few China guests visit the hotel, and China guests often stay directly. China people are employed in sailing hotels with a minimum of $65,438+￡ 0,500 per night, because China VIPs often stay. In May this year, more than a dozen young people from China who graduated from hotel management flew to Dubai, United Arab Emirates, to work for the world's most luxurious and only seven-star hotel, the Sailing Hotel. Not to save money, Sun Jing, who just turned 20, recruited waiters from China, but worked as waiters in the Sky Restaurant on the 54th floor of this hotel. The reporter asked him if it was because the manpower in China was cheaper that the hotel recruited employees from China. He said that this was not the case. "Sailing Hotel is an international hotel. At present, there are more and more China people coming to the UAE, and China VIPs often stay in sailing hotels, so they need China employees to provide services. " At present, there are waiters from about 90 different countries and regions in restaurants in Sun Jing alone. In terms of adaptation, Sun Jing thinks that it mainly depends on language ability and personality. "It is very important to communicate with others. In daily life, the tasks assigned by the manager before going to work should be basically understood. " Sun Jing believes that personality is also very important for this job. "If you are introverted and unwilling to communicate with others, it will be more troublesome." He said that the foreigners he worked with were very warm and polite. "China people used to give people the impression that people here were more introverted, but now they are much better." . School strengthens foreign language skills Sailing Hotel is satisfied that Sun Jing graduated from Hubei Tourism School. He said that compared with migrant workers in other countries, China people have greater language difficulties. "Here, China people's foreign languages are the worst, while others like Filipinos, Indians and Europeans and Americans have good English. They come here to work, and language is not a problem. " Before going abroad, Hubei Tourism School also conducted intensive training for these students, focusing on language and professional knowledge. But Sun Jing said, what I feel now is the biggest gain of my internship in Beijing this year. During that time, I mastered a lot of professional vocabulary, mainly the names of dishes. "I learned a lot here, such as all kinds of juices, sauces and seasonings. Because eating western food is very particular, there are many ingredients. If there is no internship in Beijing, it will be very difficult to work abroad. " Zhang Wenjie is one of the directors of the Employment Department of Hubei Tourism School, and is also the specific agent for these students to go abroad. He told reporters that before the students in Sun Jing, three graduates from their school had worked in the Navigation Hotel. "In the second half of last year, people from the sailing hotel came to the school to have a look. I was very cautious at first, and now the relationship is relatively stable. " Zhang Wenjie said, "The people from the Sailing Hotel will come back in June+10, 5438. They are considering listing in our school, which means setting up a training base in our school. " Part-time income is considerable. China guests don't tip. Wang Jing and Sun Jing, who live in Wuhan, serve in the same restaurant. Speaking of income, Wang Jing said that before she came, the teacher told them that she earned a lot of money here, but her expectations were not high at first, because the higher the expectations, the easier it was to be disappointed. "I never thought that the salary given here would be as high as the teacher said, so I feel ok now." Sun Jing said that although the current income is not comparable to that of Europe and America, it is much higher than that of China. "But every department is different. A restaurant like ours can earn more than 2,500 dirhams (about 5,000 yuan) a month. " In Jing Wong's income, tips account for a large proportion. Wang Jing said: "It is customary to tip people when spending here, usually 5% to 10% of the consumption. In addition, after all, this is a seven-star high-end hotel, and guests who come here usually give tips. " "But not every guest tips. Generally, Europeans and Americans give them in proportion, but China people who come to eat often don't. We are sad sometimes. They will tell us that we are all from China, so they will give us a discount. I don't know what to say in this case. " Wang Jing's words made the reporter a little embarrassed. Among the young people in China in the Sailing Hotel, Ji Xu from Wuhan is the only floor housekeeper. He didn't disclose his salary to the reporter, but the reporter found from the side that the salary of a position like him is much higher than that of Jing Wong and others. The accommodation is excellent. Visiting relatives doesn't cost money. Sun Jing told reporters that they lived in an apartment provided by the hotel, with three people in one room. The neighborhood where the apartment is located is particularly green. It's 0/5 minutes' drive from the hotel/KLOC-and there are two shuttle buses every hour.
