Excerpt
One day, Cici decided to upgrade all of the linens in every guest cabin. She also changed the brand of hot tea that was offered. “All of my guests will love this!” she thought. She updated the instructions and sent the seagulls to notify the crabs. The crabs automatically updated their routines by changing the linens, the tea, and more. But…
Suddenly Cici was receiving angry calls from two of her more difficult guests. The new linens were too scratchy! The new tea was too spicy! These guests didn’t accept the new changes and they were upset. Cici realized that some of her guests should not receive updated instructions automatically, and so she told the crabs who managed those rooms to ignore the seagulls. She would handle any changes required for those guests manually. She was still saving a ton of time with the automatic upgrade system, even if she needed to handle some things on her own.
