Offering Help

As a member of the hotel industry you will inevitably find yourself in a situation that requires you to offer help or assistance to a guest. This situation may present itself as an absolute necessity or one of simply polite behavior. In either case, knowing what to say in those situations will hold you in good stead with the guests.

At times, you will be in situations that you will offer your help and at other times you may be asked to respond to a guest that has requested help. Look at the expressions below that cover both circumstances.

When offering help

Would you like some help?

Can I give you a hand?

Do you need any help?

May I offer my assistance?

Need any help?

When asking for help
Could you give me a hand?
Would you mind helping me out?
Could you help me please?
I need some assistance please.

Dialogue

When offering help

Staff: Excuse me ma’am, could I help you with your bags?

Guest: That would be great thanks.

Staff: Pardon me sir, but it looks like you could use some help with those

packages.

Guest: I sure could, thanks.

When responding to help

Guest: Excuse me, but can you help me?

Staff: Of course ma'am, what can I do for you?

Guest: Someone just stole my purse off my shoulder outside the hotel.

Staff: That’s terrible. Are you OK?

Guest: Yes, just shaken up a bit.

Staff: Why don’t you seat down here and I’ll call the police for you.

Guest: Thank you; I appreciate your help.

Guest: I don't understand what the taxi driver is trying to say. Could you

translate for me?

Staff: Of course sir, I'd be delighted to help.

Guest: Oh, thank you. I would really appreciate that.

Practice

Practice using the above expressions by having a dialogue similar to the ones above with a partner, one partner taking the role of the guest and the other the role of the staff. For additional practice, switch roles. Practice the dialogue several times, trying to use all of the expressions noted above.

Life Still Have a Meaning

If there is a future there is time for mending-
Time to see your troubles coming to an ending.

Life is never hopeless however great your sorrow-
If you're looking forward to a new tomorrow.

If there is time for wishing then there is time for hoping-
When through doubt and darkness you are blindly groping.

Though the heart be heavy and hurt you may be feeling-
If there is time for praying there is time for healing.

So if through your window there is a new day breaking-
Thank God for the promise, though mind and soul be aching,

If with harvest over there is grain enough for gleaning-
There is a new tomorrow and life still has meaning.

People always come into your life for a reason, a season and a lifetime.

When you figure out which it is, you know exactly what to do.

Touching Life Story

A young man was getting ready to graduate college.

For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer's
showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it,

he told him that was all he wanted.

As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited
signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the
morning of his graduation his father called him into his private
study. His father told him how proud he was to have such

a fine son, and told him how much he loved him.

He handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box.

Curious, but somewhat disappointed the young man
opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible.

Angrily, he raised his voice at his father and said

"With all your money you give me a Bible?"

and stormed out of the house, leaving the holy book.

Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business.
He had a beautiful home and wonderful family, but realized his
father was very old, and thought perhaps he should go to him.

He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make
arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had
passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son.

He needed to come home immediately and takecare things.
When he arrived at his father's house, sudden sadness and
regret filled his heart.

He began to search his father's important papers and
saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago.

With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages.

As he read those words, a car key dropped from an envelope
taped behind the Bible.
It had a tag with the dealer's name, the same dealer who had the
sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation,
and the words...PAID IN FULL.

How many times do we miss God's blessings because they are not
packaged as we expected?
