No, sir, I can't remove 9 adult movies from your bill...

[Mr Hero]

How does one even travel without emergency back-up funds, just in case? Not to mention how does one not know that movies ordered into a hotel room show up on the bill?

To be fair, the charges on the guest's bill at my hotel just shows up generically as "Pay Movie." However we keep more detailed records behind the desk. Every time a movie is ordered, there is a computer with a dot matrix printer that prints up the title of the movie and which room charged it.

Surely you could have said that if you were to take them off, it would effectively be stealing the films and so the police would have to be called immediately... bet that would have found him his cash/card.

Also, the phrase wackjobs being used in this thread makes me lol a great deal.

Clockwork Gnome sex!

Now that's a Travelocity commercial I wouldn't want to see.

Well, and this is just a guess considering what happens in Vegas is suppose to stay there. But perhaps he did have cash and a credit card and was somehow relieved of them by the end of the trip? Do they still cut up cards that are maxed out?

I could see that but my thought was that he wasn't willing to put it on his own card and let his WIFE see the charges. Probably figured getting busted by the little boss better than getting busted by the big one

Holy shit...now that dude is a freak with a capital F and I don't mean that in a good way either.... One of my co-workers from an old job of mine had a customer call in asking to take off the charges on his card for porn so his girlfriend wouldn't freak out.

[JustaCashier]

I mean, really...9 adult flicks? In 2 days? Didn't this guy do any actual work?

Of course he did!

Didn't you notice the blisters on his hands?

1) Someone, somewhere in our hotel, is having sex

In my younger days, I had a personal goal to have sex in every hotel on the strip. Only 3 left, but CityCenter might change that if it ever opens. I shall complete this goal before I die ;p

But back on topic, I've ordered hotel porn before. It's like watching ShoTime or Skinimax. They don't show anything or it's something "Artsy" by Andrew Blake and I get bored. how can this guy go through 9?

You know, if these guys had a clue, they'd get a pre-paid gift card and then just put their porn on that, and nobody would ever know.

Why is a girlfriend looking at his cc bill? Spouse I get - shared expenses and all, but girlfriend? That is a red flag to me - sorry. I could order a giraffe on my cc and as long as I didn't keep it in the backyard my SO would never know.

They probably were living together, she paid the bills or was just the jealous type. .

[MTNLaurelPoacher]

Dude.... you have pornos for chicks?

(Yes, that IS the portion my mind latched onto.)

Yep... there is a whole book on it... Interior Desecrator gives it as gifts sometime to her friends.
(as she sits over my shoulder correcting my spellin)

Back to the porn... I guess this is a prime example of nothing is truly free. This porn might have cost a job. If it were one or two, I guess the boss would not notice, or you could play it off to the boss as a little *wink wink... nod nod* , you know... what happens in Vegas.

Actually... I would be the type of boss to sit down and look at the room numbers, the movies ordered, ect and just get a little more info on my employees.

Still for $150 bucks you could have had a good time at a gentlemen's club, or ordered in and made some of your own.

[slavetotheman]

What I don't get is the people who bring a laptop (we have free wifi in the rooms), and STILL spend $20 on a porno they, erm, "enjoy" for 12 minutes....

Because they wouldn't want to get caught by their corporate IT with porn-related web nasties on their laptop

I can beat that...

Given the topic at hand (pun totally intended), all I can say is

[MercenaryMuffin]

Sorry to disappoint you, MTNLaurel, but $150 isn't gonna get you a damn thing out here. Even the most basic of, erm, 'favors' costs about $300 for a half hour.
How do I know this? Because it's just part of what you know after you live here for so long, lol.

In some cities, the residents know about historic landmarks. In Las Vegas, residents know the price of a hooker

Hey, could be worse... In Salt Lake you start learning the answers to questions like "where can I get a drink without my Bishop finding out" or "where can I have gay sex without my Bishop finding out"

scarily, yes, I do know the answer to both those questions...

The local motel out here has a special "switch" behind their tv's that if you push it, and turn to channel 3, it plays porn. All day. I didn't know about it at first, even though I'd stayed at that motel multiple times. After a couple times, though, the manager remembered me and told me. I thought it was hilarious! But yeah, you've gotta love people. They provide endless annoyance and entertainment.
