Subject Re: only to you
I woudl like to think that you are the manager of a great resort , and i am the most important
guest it ever had, ana said,? i told, i thought, they were doing something else . is not what
you and i would expect . i understand that one plate of glass was ordered weeeks ago. howver
every door in the kite house is in need of repair or replacement. . I like you and want you to
succeed, I dont send emails that often regarding things that need to get done, but I think that
when I do , they should take prioirty . cement slab in planter, for example.

The trampoline is entirely my fault. Yes, I am ultimately responsible for every item on the

Monday I will sit down with Carlos and ask him if he wants to be treated like a responsible
employee or a dumb worker who needs to be led to each project I want done. I also have to
learn who is capable of doing what they are told and who just ignores it because of their
seniority and place on the pecking order.
Two things are working against me, but I can deal with that.
I. The staff hates that there is supervision. It was nicer for them with only Ana because they
could just coast along.
2. I've heard more than once that " There has been so many in my role and they don't last, so
don't be offended if we wait and see"
Anyway. I will be more diligent about tasks being completed and that your living areas takes first
priority at all times.
I want to make this work.
Thanks
John

ask what was ordered, when ? , did you check that the tramapolin had been
cleaned if you had already had to tell him twice. . it IF you were running a hotel
would any of those answers mean anything to a guest.

Not held in BVI. Just asked Carlos where the boat papers are. Carlos is a drama
queen.
I have been to the Kite house and complained about the sad state ofit. Ana told me you
were aware that we are waiting for new windows.
I will be extra diligent about things when I return. Be assured of that.
Thanks

sorry , but this makes no sense to me, why shoud i care about the
tunnel being clean if the trampoline , is filthy, why should i care
about engineering , if the kite house doors are all broken, ana told
me about a broken pane of glass no more. there are no handles
how is it possible as a hotel manager that you have never been in the
kite house, I beleive we can work it out, but this makes no sesnse
at all to me none. my guest has also commemed how shitty things
are kept now. this is possibly a sabotage move against you, i am
aware, however i see little reason that things like the trampolien
were not done, before my holdiay weekend, and the landscalc at
the man compound and at my bedroom not done before otther
secondary projects at the salt pond. Im told that you have been
held in bvi , is it true.,

Jeffrey,
I am very sorry about this. If I may explain what it is that I am doing, then hopefully
we can fix this situation.
When I came to the island I saw one major problem. Landscaping was running from
area to area and putting out fires, as directed by Ana. It was one
problem area after the other.
So, I decided to split up the island so Ana took care of the homes, and I would get

landscaping in shape. Irrigation is lacking, and as you can see when
you look at the basket, and areas surrounding it... It looks much
better now that irrigation is working.
I wanted to get all open projects done and get the crew into maintenance mode. As
you can see, the engineering area is no longer a junk yard, next
week the tunnel will be organized with racks and all workshops
clean and neat.
Infrastructure is paramount in my experience. When all is clean and neat, it is easier
to maintain it that way.
I know this makes me a construction manager, but that is what I deemed the most
important initial role in order to get 5 star service.
Regarding the tennis court, I was told that as long as it was ready by early
September, it was all good. So, that is why you have not seen full
action this past week up there. Other projects were demanding the
full staff. I will get on the court next week and get it done.
The kite house. No excuse there. It's a mess, and Ana had told me that we are
waiting for windows and you knew about that.
Trampoline is filthy. Absolutely agree. I've asked Carlos to clean it 3 times and I
will have to be more firm with him.
Let me get the things sorted out and then be more active in supervising Ana in her
tasks as well. I must say that compared to other homes I've
managed over the years, cleanliness is pretty good at LSJ. So, that's
why I felt that I could concentrate on landscaping for a while.
It takes a little time to learn the ins and outs of a new place. What I'm learning here
is that it's not enough to tell people what to do.
I will be done with landscaping next week and will at the same time get more
involved with the remaining areas of LSJ
Sorry about the long email...
Happy 4th
John

John , when I hired you , I thought i made it clear
that i did not want a new construction manager, but 5
star service for me and my guests. I am very
dismayed . The island is not five star - it is not two
star. . I the swimming dock is recently spintered
and a hazard, with a fishing pole laying a on it. the
trampoline is so filthy to make it totally unusable.
the kite house , obviously you have never been in, (
not sure how this is possible ) as every door is broken
inoperable and glass cracked for over a month.art
work laying on the floor - the cabanas also have art
work laying on the floor. the list of the very few
things that i emailed you have not been done. My
prioirties are paramount , not anna chirs or yours.
chris and crew are planting autographs where the fruit
trees are to go . and spending money on irrigation .
instead of dealing with my master bed area which I
have pointed out three times already, or covering the
large cement casing at the MAIN HOUSE - the
Tennis court is filthy, doors unable to close as I had to
rig the pipe , already rusting, though i told danny
twice and you in person. the tennis net had come off
so i had to lace back up. ( not well either ). the ball
machine cover was off and filthy, ties laying all over
the place. danny told you that someone was to make
a new door closer. the kitchen refrig , was filled
with half open fruits , old lettuce, I had to clean up the
mess myself. .
