  • I will create a new route to the hotel....

    right away.

    Why on Earth do I get atleast 5 people a day ask me "Do you know how hard it is to get to your hotel?" ?

    Yes, I understand that the recent road construction left the road in an messed up state, but I am just as pissed about it as you, so what the hell do you want from me? And you got to the hotel, I mean seriously, let it go, bugging me about doesn't help one bit.

    NO, you will not get a discount.
    NO, you will not get a FREE upgrade to a suite.
    And NO, I will not even entertain your thoughts on why "the hotel should look into building its own off ramp from the highway straight into the hotels parking lot"

    Thats right, this nut job thinks that we, the hotel, should ADD an exit ramp to the STATES highway that exits directly into our parking lot.

    Maybe we should just move the hotel and place the parking lot in the middle of the highway, that way, you dont even need to exit, we are right there!

    I especially love that they bring this up, as I'm sure you have to drive to work each day as well. Do they think you live at the hotel? Oh, wait, they probably do.

      I feel your pain.

      My hotel isn't even near the highway. It was built in the downtown area back in the 60's before this area even had an interstate. Yet I have heard it all. My favorite is always "why did you build this place so far from the highway?"

      Seriously, buttmunch...I wasn't even alive when this place was built. Try again.

        I have had a customer complaint that they had to take a detour to our store because of a accident on the main road that out out a tree and utility pole. They wanted 50 PERCENT off their grocery shopping because of the inconvenience. They only had about $20-25 of groceries. The MOD told them no that we all laughed about it.

          Why no, I take a helicopter and they just hover over the parking lot and lower me on a rope. It's great! No traffic!

            We had major road construction all summer long on the street where I both work AND live.

            Customers would complain, and I'd just say to them, "I work here, and I live just across the street. I deal with this every day. If there was something I could do about it, I'd have done it already for my own sake."

            If you have to ask, it's probably better posted at www.fratching.com

              The dealer I used to work at had pretty piss-poor parking which I got to hear about daily. I had a guy who wanted to pay cost on his parts because he, gasp, had to park down the block! We unceremoniously told him to get stuffed.
              I know nothing and I can prove it!
