I was working front desk at the hotel when a man walks up asking my CW for a good place to eat.
SC: Hey, I was wondering if there are any good places to eat around here that you can recommend.
CW: Sure, there's a place that's only about a five minute walk, or like a 2 minute drive. It's called (name of pizza place).
CW: (gives directions)
SC: And this place is good, huh?
CW: Yeah, I really like it. It's probably my favorite pizza place in town.
SC: Well, can you guarantee that I'll like it?
CW: No, of course not. I'm not going to go down that road with you. If you're going to trying to pull some kind of a sneaky lawyers trick, it's not going to happen.
SC: What if I'm not satisfied with it? Will you pay for the meal?
CW: No, why would we do that? If you don't like it, you can choose to not eat there any more.
SC: Well, why can't you make a guarantee then? If you think it's so great. Why can't you just pay for the meal if I don't like it?
CW: Dude, I'm just recommending a place that I like. I have nothing to do with their business, you'd have to take it up with them. If you have any problems that have to do with your room or the hotel then we can talk, but otherwise, I really don't care.
SC: (walks off in a huff)
Gotta love my fellow front desk mate. He won't take crap from anyone.
