Lady calls the hotel, looking for someone. I check my registered names.. can't find it.
Now the lady has gone from sugary sweet to rude, demanding to know 'where you stashed my husband!'
Me: "Ma'am, I didn't stash him anywhere. My shift just started and the only guests I've seen are unmarried and my regulars. What's your husband look like, and if I catch him, I can leave a message with him to call you."
Ya know..I really should stop asking these types of questions..
Lady: "He's handsome, taller than you.. and blonde."
Me: "Ma'am, that describes half my guests, and how do you know how tall I am anyway?"
Lady: "I'm in your parking lot, sitting BY his car, so I know he's in there!"
*Le sigh..*
Me: "Ma'am, what is his license plate and yours?"
Lady: (NOT thinking): "12345L 12345H."
Me: "Thanks Ma'am, I'll see what I can do."
I hang up the phone, call my local police, and give the license plate of her car, asking that they come and speak to her about leaving my parking lot.
I hang up from that call, go about my paperwork when I hear the front door ding. (Side complaint: PUSH THE BUTTON ONCE! It dings 3 times. Stop holding the damned thing!)
She's standing at my door, yelling at me for having the cops remove her from my property. When I ask her where she's parked NOW, she says at the Days Inn next to me, which is A) Private property B) Also owned by my company.
So, again, I pick up the phone, ask for the officer to return and make sure the lady is clearly gone this time if possible.
I think that caller ids should come with mood signals or warnings like "May suddenly turn into crazy bitch if not given an answer I like." or something.
OH! And I found the 'husband.'. I described the lady, and that's his EX Fianceee of 3 years. He's married to a lovely lady now, and that's not his wife that was making so much noise.
