2 in one week!
I now have to keep a file of photocopied registration cards of people too stupid to know thier own address.
I have a guest in the hotel tonight from the somewhat-nearby town of Campbell River. I know this because I saw his ID, which lists his address, which does not even remotely relate to what he wrote down.
For 'City' (Campbell River) he wrote down 'Camp hill'
Postal code: 41j <drawing of a seagull>
Phone: Even though I know its not valid, I won't put down what he wrote, but it's WAY too many digits. Even if it were an international call, with a line extention, it's still WAY too many digits. It's as though he got caught up in the act of writing down numbers and just kept going until he had gone through the whole list a couple of times.
And my personal favorite: for 'State' he wrote down '4'.... then crossed it out, and left the rest blank.
Little bit of background: One interesting inconsistancy of the software we use at the hotel is that registration cards ask for 'State' (as opposed to 'Province') and 'Postal Code' (as opposed to 'Zip Code')
Also, in the drop down list for 'Country' our software makes a distinction between East and West Germany, but lists only 'Korea' instead of North & South Korea.
Tunisia is an available choice of country, Russia is not.
Also the whole thing runs on windows 3.1
