What does "doorman" mean?

The main job of the doorman is to open the door for guests entering and leaving the hotel, call a car, open the door, help guests get on and off, and load and unload luggage. But the general doorman is not responsible for carrying the luggage for the guests, that's the job of the bellboy. In fact, in addition, the doorman has a lot of important work for the hotel, such as memorizing the names, titles and license plates of important hotel guests and regulars, so as to inform the hotel at the first time and express greetings and welcome to the guests on behalf of the hotel at the first time; Pay attention to every guest entering and leaving the hotel, so as to recall the scene when necessary and help the hotel solve some problems. But these are very difficult for the doormen of most hotels in China, not because they can't do it, but because they don't care.

The work of the doorman is hard, so most hotels will choose men, but some hotels choose women as doormen to be unconventional.
