  • blaragh, quoth the drunk sc!

    So, last week I get a call complaining that a drunk guy is trying to get into their room at 2 am. (Geez throw the damn deadbolt and turn up the TV he's not gonna get you!)

    I say sorry, I'll get right on it, yadda yadda blah blah and hang up.

    Going to investigate, I find a guy lying facedown, not moving. At first I think he's choked on his own puke, (GROSS) and then he moves.

    "Excuse me, sir? You're on the wrong floor." I say, and gather up all his things that are spread around him on the floor. His wallet, his keycard, his keycard packet. "You're in room.....601, not 501."

    Drunk: "Wha? Wha room am I....?"

    Me: "601. Sir, you need to move NOW. People in there are complaining."

    Drunk: "I'm....tryingggg...."*makes an attempt to get up*

    He finally stumbles to his feet, and his nasty green yellowish puke is in a big puddle all over the hallway, the room he's in front of, and the room right next to that. The whole floor smells like shit. I give him his things when he's done emptying his stomach, tell him again his room number, and scurry off before he can puke on me. Phew! Close call.

    Minutes later, a nice lady comes down to tell me she found a wallet. I immediately recognized it. Guess who's? I thank the lady.

    I open it, just to make sure, and compare the name on the ID to the drunk's room. Bingo! I put it away, and go about my business.

    Hours later, the drunk calls from his room, asking about a wallet. Doesn't even say sorry for puking and messing up our nice hallway carpet, or for creeping out our guests because he can't read. I admit it, I comtemplated saying no or playing dumb. But whatever. I'll do a good deed and have good karma sent my way.

    I tell him we have it, and he acts all shocked. Yeah, there ARE some sober people up here, that can read. He bleats, "REALLY ARE YOU SURE IT'S A BROWN WALLET"

    WTF? I just handed it to you earlier, douche, or were you too busy hurling to notice? Plus your frigging ID is in there. Dumbass.

    He comes down, and whispers, "I want to check out. And give me my wallet you found." No 'Please.' I hand it over and he moans in relief, and then clutches his head in his hands, obviously very hungover.

    I smile devilishly, grab our big heavy metal stapler, and crash it down on our hard topped counter with a nice loud bang. Oopsy! In the kitchen, the Breakfast lady drops a pan on the floor. Sends him into nice agnonized groans and moans of pain, clutching at his head like it's splitting. Probably was.

    He glares up at me with very red eyes filled with water. "Have a nice day, sir!" I yell as I hand over his receipt. He hightails it out of there without a thank you.

    Muahahahaa. I pity whoever had to clean his room though. Bet he didn't leave a tip.

      This is exactly my question. I know at my original university that if you made sick, you had to clean it up. But I'm guessing this would not be the case at a hotel. Did the puke puddle just sit there until the morning cleaning staff came in?

        That is not necessarily true. I'm 5'8", 160 pounds or so, hardly the biggest baddest man in the whole damn town. (That would be Leroy Brown, of course.) But if I was determined and/or drunk enough, I would have no problem getting through the doors of most hotels I've been to. Just saying.

        It's questions like this that made me practically worship at the feet of the maids who worked at the hotel I bartended at years ago. They cleaned up anything and everything, professionally, efficiently, without complaint, and most importantly, without me having to actually clean up any puke. Bless those ladies, each and every one of them.

            So were there extra cleaning charges tacked onto his bill? I've never know about that, always wondered if there was and if not there damn well should be.

              Why? Why would you do that? Just to get back at him for drinking too much?

                I think it was more for the puking in the hallway.

                Plus, giing people with hangovers a hard time is fun.

                    And harassing other guests. And being a jerk about the wallet. And showing no remorse or shame over the previous evening's shenanigans.

                      I once told my "nephew" (friend's son who I spoil and call me Auntie) that his mom was feeling ill because a witch cursed her and the only way to cure her was to sneak quietly up to her and then start screaming the magic words.

                      I also bought the child drums. Because I am an evil friend, and a wonderful "Auntie."

                      But seriously, WHO cleaned up the mess?

                        That's delightfully evil.

                          yes it IS SOOOOO much fun. esp if it is the other closing driver. (he drinks to excess occasionally and then complains about the hangover). that means I get to harass him (as in bang stuff loudly whilst doing dishes) all night long.

                              I remember as a young drunk hearing stories about that evil witch, Han Gover. She's a nasty one, and not easy to evade.

                              Of course, my just complete 12 mile bike ride did wonders towards ridding me of Han Gover. Hell, I can't even feel her presence any more!
