No free parking for you….
It has been a while since I have regaled you with a story, so I thought I would provide you with one. I work at a horrible property in one of the world’s top adult playgrounds.
A fool comes to the front desk ( will be referred to as <PERSON>) and is upset about free parking not being available and wanted to lament to me about having to use the paid parking.
<PERSON>: I need a hotel manager Me: Good evening sir <PERSON>: I need a hotel manager Me: What is this in regards to sir? <PERSON>: Your free parking garage is full and I do not want to pay to park in your reserved area. Me: If the complimentary parking garage is full, then unfortunately you do have to pay Sir. <PERSON>: You are not helpful, get me your manager. Me: Absolutely Sir, what is your room number? <PERSON>: I am not staying here. Me: The complimentary parking garage is for hotel guests only Sir.
Side note kids: if you are not a hotel guest and you are starting shit…..this is not your day. Gotta swallow a lot of shit in this industry, not one ounce will be from someone that is not a guest….back to the story:
<PERSON> raises his voice and switches to a hostile tone ( never a good idea)
<PERSON>: Get me your manager. Me: No Sir, I will not get my manager. You are not a guest of the hotel, and you need to pay to park here. Fool: You have to get me your manager, because I told you to. Me: No, I do not have to do anything Sir. 329
<PERSON>: I need your first and last name, I need your corporate phone number and your GM’s phone number. Me: I will not give you my name, and the phone number to corporate can be found on our website. <PERSON>: I work in customer service, you have to give me your first and last name. Me: No Sir, you are not entitled to my personal information, also you are being quite hostile and I think the next step is for me to call security if you do not leave the front desk area on your own accord. <PERSON>: I am going to get you fired!!!!
I look at the guest and pick up the phone
<PERSON>: You really are going to call security? Me: Yes sir, you are not a hotel guest. You are causing a scene and being quite hostile. I do not tolerate that, either leave or be escorted out of the building. <PERSON>: I am going to get you fired. Me: No you are not….last chance to leave without a security escort.
<PERSON> let’s out a few choice profanities and walks away.
Every word of this is true, and yes it was fucking amazing. One sentence summary: <PERSON> fucked around and found out. Good night everyone. 329
