It seems I just couldn't avoid walking in on people today!
I ALWAYS knock because I have learnt that even if a guest has checked out, it doesn't mean that I won't burst in on their unsuspecting snoozing girlfriend whom they have neglected to warn reception about. As soon as your room number bears the mark of the highlighter pen, then no amount of DO NOT DISTURB signs will repel me MWA HAA HAA!
Also if it is 13:30 and check-out time was 11:00, I will be knocking and entering to see your naked manly butt as you stand framed in the open doorway of the bathroom. ( I will then hurry away to the next room on my list, giggling like a schoolgirl).

Anyhow, this afternoon I knocked on the door of one of the occupied rooms on my list. I tend to leave these until the afternoon (unless they have put out the ROOM READY FOR SERVICE sign, like good guests should) because normally by that time they have scoffed, showered and skedaddled. Well there was no answer so I went in and my hand was on the bathroom door handle, when I heard a splashy sound from within. Oops, close one! I exited quick then pushed a little note under the door saying 'sorry to disturb you, Housekeeping.' in case I had creeped the lady out. If I was having a nice relaxing bath though, I would put the DND sign on my door!

I then went to check the vacant rooms, only to burst in on a sleeping man who woke up blinking as the light from the corridor penetrated the gloom. I quickly apologised and closed the door. Reception hadn't warned us that someone had checked in early. Grrrr!

A bit later during my break I popped to the loo, yes you've guessed it, I made it a hat-trick as I opened the door to reveal a man on the loo!

"She's at it again!" my colleagues laugh.
Moi, un voyeur?
