god i hate young guys!!!!

[HotelMinion]

do they have the brains of an amoeba???
I know I'm probably gonna get a bunch of young guys saying, "Not all us guys are like that!" but right now I'm sooooo angry I don't really care. I hate working Friday & Saturday night shifts, but I had to for the $. =P However I'm seriously rethinking quelle plan.
What it is about a hotel that makes these guys think it's a bar or a club? Is it the beds? Is it the girls? Is it the pool? I don't get it. Anyway on to last night.
So a huge bus burps up this huge party into our hotel, and it looks like a wedding party by the tuxedos and fancy dresses. They're screaming and yelling like first graders on the bus, and soon after I get a noise complaint. Oh, shoot me.
So I go up and I see this GUY coming out of a room, all suited up. I say verrrrrry politely, to keep it the fuck down. He says, looking at the floor, ok.
Still, I get MORE complaints. Now I'm mad. I go up again, and there's even MORE people in his room, blasting the radio, dancing, talking, I'm talking like 30 people crammed in there. I was like, WTF. I threaten him with the police. The girls immediately shut up. The GUYS try to bring me into the room with them. WTF! Stupid nimrods! Get a vasectomy to stop to stupid from being passed down--please!!! They say ok, whatever; I go back to the desk.
Now they're calling from their cell phones, so I can't tracke their room numbers, and pranking me. Seriously?
So I take a quick look a few minutes later, and all is silent. I have the sneaking suspicious Douchebags took their party to ANOTHER room, and bingo. Another call on another floor, and what do I see? The same men, no women, about six, standing around the hallways talking loudly. I call the police, tell them that people are trying to sleep, they apologize and slither back into a room nearby. Sorries won't cut it pal!
Long story short, they spent the night in the slammer for public drunkeness & disturbness (most of them weren't even staying here), and we had to comp all the rooms that complained. The manager wasn't happy. Guys! Urghhh!

Not all young guys are like that. Just the ones that when brains were being handed out, they thought they heard that stains were being handed out and then asked for a little one.

I'm a young (or so I keep telling myself) guy, and I feel your pain.

Or they thought they heard "trains", and since they didn't want to go anywhere, they left.

Nothing like a bit of 3rd grade humor to start the day

There is a theory we came up with when I was in the Army.

Our theory was the 'lowest common denominator effect'.
The theory states that when you put enough males together, all under the age of 25, and if you keep them bottled up together long enough they will all eventually start taking on the characteristics of the biggest douche in the room.
This is a fine example of the phenomenon.

and if you keep them bottled up together long enough

...Am I the only one who read that as "liquored up" ??

I agree completely. The mob (anti-)mentality works at all ages, too. K from MiB phrased it pretty well: "A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it. "

Actually, thats part of the pun.
Thanks for noticing

They don't even have to be together for that long of a time; when hormonal, foolish teens or young adults get together, they do stuff they wouldn't do if they didn't have an audience. They also tend to have a sense of "humor" that's part bullying, part stupidity. That's where crap like "fire in the hole" comes from. A teen or young adult by himself rarely acts so jerkish as they do in a group.

Girls do it, too. I did the whole loud-laughing, acting-hyper thing 13-year-old girls do to get attention. I hate being the center of attention now. Funny, that.

i had a similar theory for the navy. that normally men would start acting mature around 25. except that when you bottle them all up together they encourage each other to act out. and that was why the navy guys i knew tended to start acting mature at around 35.

[Divra]

Sarge used to say that the Army turns men into boys and girls into men. I prefer to think of it as being so tightly controlled and utterly bored you let off your steam and get your jollies in whatever way you can.

I must have been the exception to the rule because I never acted that way when I was in the Navy. I was in from age 20-24. Of course since I didn't drink, I was often the designated driver. Not to mention time spent trying to keep my drunk buddies out of trouble. They did provide me hours of free, hilarious entertainment though.

I never trust the judgement of any male under the age of 30. I'm a male, under the age of 30. Make of that what you will.

o yeah there's always exceptions. one of my buddies on my last ship was more interested in being a geek rather than raising hell. and his girlfriend was the same. neither one was over 25. and they were great to hang out with.

i learned from them... the people you hang out with should be people you're proud to call friends.

It's so frustrating to be the middle man in those situations. You've got the unhappy guests that are complaining about the noise and then you have the rowdy bunch you're trying to quiet down that aren't doing what you're asking. I feel your pain! People can be so inconsiderate! They don't care about anything that's going on around them or how they're affecting other people.
