American Idol judge (and my junior high crush) Paula Abdul is being accused
by two workers at the Silverton hotel and casinoin Las Vegas of getting them fired. The story goes that Abdul called
the front desk in the early morning to change her flight plans for later that morning. The two girls working the front
desk began to print out flight schedules, but in the midst of it all were called again by Abdul who told them the
flights were all booked. She then blamed them for causing her to miss her flight. The workers, Carol Good and
Damon Rosa, were both fired. I won't pretend to know who was right or wrong in this situation, but I was impressed that
Good stayed past the time her shift was supposed to end in order to help out, if only because I used to work in the
hospitality industry. Typically, once my shift was over I pretty much stopped caring about the residents of the
hotel. This makes me a bad person, I know. I've been trying to improve myself through meditation.
