Needing ID to check-in
Oooh My Turn! This literally happned moments ago.
Two dudes come to my desk, one 30ish, one well into his 60s. They are an hour early for check-in, and one of the two rooms they have reserved under a ladies name is ready so I can get them half checked in, if said lady were here with her ID, "I wouldn't want to give away your reservation to some rando". People usually laugh and like that, the younger of the two dudes did.
The older of the two dudes didn't seem impressed with the comment or ID requirement, so he asked "Would this make a difference?" and he literally flashed a police badge at me. 536
(Maybe he considered it a shield? It had that shape.) It didn't have a the ladies last name on it, so NOPE.
"Um, no sorry. That's not quite good enough."
"Oh what, you don't trust cops?"
"No I do, but that's still not ID. Sorry."
They went to go find the lady with her ID so they could get half their reservation checked in. 107
