Guest: yea Dave, we have a U haul trailer we are towing to carry our luggage and need to know if we can bring it in the resort

Me: no sir, they dont allow it

Guest: ok Dave, thats unacceptable, what am I supposed to do with my luggage?

Me: I am not sure, I would suggest renting a larger vehicle

Guest: no I am bringing my car, why would I rent a vehicle, you moron

Me: sir, I dont know what to tell you. The resort wont allow it

Guest: ok so it's your job to do something about this

Me: nothing I can do

Guest: so that's it?

Me: yes sir

Guest: you're not trying very hard for me, are you?

Me: sir, I cant change resort policy

Guest: no but you can at least be symapthetic toward me

Me: do you truly expect sympathy from me after you called me a moron?

Guest: I am the customer and I will call you whatever I want

Me: sir, that is the policy and I cant change it, is there anything I can do for you?

Guest: you have a very pissy attitude and I intend to report you

Me: ok well you go ahead and do that

Guest: I will.....I am absolutely furious with you in particular...how dare you treat a paying customer like I'm dog vomit

Me: ok buy sir

[Elspeth]

And I thought I packed to much stuff for trips.

NO SHIT! That was my exact thought. I mean, I have been known to WAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYY over pack...but a U HAUL!!!!!!!! REALLY!?!?!?!?

Maybe he's one of those guys who has one of those ultra small ultra expensive cars with little leg room and even less trunk space. If he rented a bigger car then he can't impress everyone with his little roadster.

Edited for truth and amusement.

[IT Grunt]

Damn... the entitlement is STRONG with this one. I swear, what is with these assholes who think that just because they are the customer, that the rules do not apply to them? 'Rules were made to be broken.' Bullshit. If the resort doesn't allow it, the resort doesn't allow it. I get people at work who think that instead of calling the help desk or putting in the request they are supposed to put in, they can call me direct and get all pissy when I tell them to follow procedure. I'm a contractor. What's part of contractor? CONTRACT. Read it and weep. 'Nuff said.

Let us hope so since he will clearly deserve every bit of what will happen to his 5-speed transmission when he tries to tow a trailer.

SC: What's that smell?

VRS: That's burning clutch. And what part of NO TRAILERS did you not understand, dickhead?

But then he'd be able to fit his luggage inside, or at least have a car that would haold up to pulling a trailer.

Ah ha ha! I'm waiting for Mr. Richard Head to be towed in with a shot transmission and a trailer he'll be charged for, just for having it on the property when he was told not to bring it.

Then you'll be talking to yourself, sir.

Even if trailers were allowed, he'd still be renting (since it's a U-Haul), so why not rent a vehicle with decent cargo room in the first place? Don't know if your employer allows it, but in your shoes I'd be tempted to remind him that various "stings" by consumer shows have found poor quality with U-Haul, and that some of their equipment has had its plates pulled (out-of-service conditions) in Ontario but not redeemed (need to produce evidence of repairs to get the plates back) because their home jurisdiction doesn't exchange info with Ontario, so they just report the plate as lost and get a new one. In other words, he's risking the loss of part of his vacation time, with no reimbursement for the days he booked but wasn't there, because of the chance of mechanical failure if he goes with a U-Haul trailer instead of a rented van (I'd recommend renting a Sprinter if he can find one).

Let us hope so since he will clearly deserve every bit of what will happen to his 5-speed transmission when he tries to tow a trailer.

That's strange - I do a LOT of towing with a manual transmission (core is a 5-speed, but there are add-ons), with trailer weight nearly 3 times the weight of the tow vehicle, but never have clutch trouble.

Yes, but your vehicle is likely designed with towing capability in mind. Little two-seaters aren't.

[tropicsgoddess]

I know I pack quite a bit on trips, but not enough to need a freakin' UHaul! What a tool.

Edited for my own amusement and for that of others.

It's a 2-seater (and no, it's not a pickup or cargo van).
