It's a good start.

Your first para doesn't seem to conclude well. It leads into a second paragraph that is backwards chronologically and we don't get a resolution.

Try and make it a bit shorter on the more mundane stuff. I think we understand that if you work in a motel you're familiar with cleaning. That keeps the punchier stuff to the fore.

Don't use I've in a PS. This is formal writing.
