  • I didn't know whining like a spoiled 5 year old was taught in Basic Training.

    Earlier tonight a guest comes to the desk. Her family has already checked into the suite, but they still needed an extra room.

    SCM: How come my room is 69.99? They (SCW and co.) are in a suite for 79.99
    Me: If you'd like a suite I'll do it for 79.99.
    SCM: Can we get $30 off or 50% since it's past midnight?
    Me: No, I can't go that low.
    SCM: Why not? That makes no sense.
    Me: 69.99 is the lowest I can go for the standard room. And as it turns out, we're out of suites, so I can't do that.
    SCW: How much is the room we're in?
    Me: 89.99
    SCW: I thought it was 79.99. When I booked online, it didn't even give me an option to put in the military rate.
    Me: The suite is normally 99.99, but the 89.99 rate is the same as the military rate.
    SCW: But you said you'd do his suite for 79.99
    Me: (Because that's what SCM thought you were paying) Since it was booked online, I can't adjust the rate.
    SCM: By the way, how do you stay up? Do you drink coffee?
    Me: Nope
    SCM: Then I guess you do cocaine?
    Me: (WTF! How do you even assume that? And why would I admit that?) No, I sleep during the day (dumbass)
    SCW: This doesn't make any sense. Why can't I get the military rate on top of this rate?
    Me: I can't stack discounts.
    SCW: That doesn't make any sense. When we check out, we're not staying here again.
    Me: (Please don't.)

      I've never seen a hotel that stacked discounts. When I was in the military if I went to a hotel that had discounts, I'd ask which was a bigger discount AAA or military because I had both. Usually they were the same but if not they gave me which ever was the best one not stack them.

                Any chance of getting that in writing? Ah yes, combining discounts.

                  And now I get called rude for not letting the SC's eat any of our breakfast 3 hours before we even open it. We're free to do what we want with our breakfast. We've chosen to serve it between the hours of 6:00 and 9:30.

                  Edit: I'm also not doing my job because I'm on the computer. I wonder how I could do my job without it though.

                    I'm probably going to get complained about. SC asked my name 2 or 3 times. I should have just said, "Mr Hero that's my name. That name again is Mr Hero."

                      I apologize that you had to deal with those creatures.
