Friends who often travel with groups must be familiar with the profession of tour guides. Tour guides are an important bridge between tourists and travel agencies. A pleasant journey is inseparable from one or more dedicated tour guides. But with the rapid development of domestic tourism, a number of black sheep have also appeared in the tour guide industry. They "colluded" with the shops in the scenic area. As long as there are tourists with the group who buy the goods of the shops, the tour guides can privately share dividends with the shop owners.

Therefore, tour guides who deliberately guide tourists to designated shops to buy things are very profitable. In addition to the interest chain with the shop owner, the tour guide itself is also a popular job. In the eyes of many people, the daily work of the tour guide is just to eat, drink and have fun, and it can also earn a lot of money, so it is very easy. When it comes to eating and drinking, when we finish the tour with the group, we usually enter the part of eating.

However, when tourists are seated in turn, they will not see which table the tour guide is sitting with, but sit alone, giving many tourists who have just joined the group the feeling of "opening a small stove". Think about it too, many tour guides will "disappear" for a while when they eat. When the tourists are seated, they will see the tour guide at the dinner table. They usually don't sit with the tourists, but with the team driver. So this kind of "intentional move" is really the tour guide opening a small stove? It was not until the driver of the team told the truth that netizens suddenly realized.

In fact, the tour guide will "disappear for a while" during the meal, not sitting with the tourists, not to exclude the tourists. We know that when it comes to meal time, in addition to tourists with group tours, there will also be ordinary customers spending. Generally, meal time is the busiest time for restaurants. In order to take good care of the tourists, the tour guides usually urge the chefs to serve the dishes of the travel agency first at the door of the kitchen. In addition, according to the age of the group traveling with the group, the chefs are required to use less oil and less salt.

For example, like the senior group, the general elderly have more three highs, the tour guide will ask the chefs to use less oil and less sugar when cooking, and like a group with more young people, the tour guide will ask the chefs to cook enough. , to prevent tourists from starving. Until all the dishes are ready, it is generally the tour guide's turn to eat. For example, the food of the tour guide is generally similar to that of the tourists. It is mainly to synchronize with the tourists, so as to take care of the tourists’ stomachs. If the food in the restaurant does not meet the taste, the tour guide can quickly detect it and negotiate with the hotel or change it. Restaurant meal. To sum up, the job of a tour guide is still due diligence and hard work, so it is still very worthy of the respect of tourists to be a tour guide who "doesn't find favoritism".
