Just a short little tale from the other day.
Check out is 11, but we don't require them to actually drop their keys at the desk. So noon rolls around and the maids are working and I get a call from the girl in laundry. One of the maids said there was a lady still sleeping in a room. Okay, no big deal. Normally I call, they wake up and scramble to leave the room. This time there is no answer. So, I have the maid and laundry girl go and bang on the door. At some point during this time, the lady got up and latched the chain on the door.
There is still no sign of movement. So I get my maintenance guy. I've seen him have to bang on doors. It sounds like some one just ran a car through the building. He goes around and bangs on the door, yelling at the lady as well. Still nothing. At this point we are not sure what is going on and beginning to wonder if maybe she died off or something. We call the police. They come out along with the EMT's. She finally gets up and leaves. No charges are filed because it is the thinking of the cop that she is just a deep sleeper.
After all the excitement is over I go with the maid just to check on the room. This is when I found the cause of all the problems. She was just sleeping off a crack binge. I moved the pillow on the bed and laying right there was her half full crack pipe.
This is why I hate renting to locals.
