When I came in at 11 tonight there was a lady standing at the desk, my CW looked annoyed and she never gets annoyed with people. It turns out this lady wanted a room and wasn't happy to be told we are sold out and every one else in town was sold out too. She just wasn't buying it. When we told her it's because both refineries had a lot of workers in town, she then demanded to know why both refineries would do their turn around at the same time. Like I have that information.
She wouldn't accept our word for it that every one was sold out, but since we were not going to call around for her, we handed her the phone book and she went and called around-guess what everyone was sold out!
Then she got on our computer in the lobby and got numbers for the surrounding towns and found they are all sold out too. With every call she'd give the clerk the third degree and ask the same questions and get the same answers. And after every call she would slam stuff down and heavily sign.
She wanted to know if she could sleep in our lobby, which of course I said no. She said she might just sleep in her car, and I told her the Walmart parking lot would allow her to do that and she rolled her eyes at me.
Finally after 40 minuets I had had enough (I don't know how long she'd been here before I came on) and I told her she needed to leave. She then called me a Bitch and said that she would never stay at our hotel chain again. Which I'm sure every employee of every one of those hotels is grateful for. And then she stormed out.
The stupid part of the whole thing is that she had said that she just lived in a town 30 miles from here and had decided to come up tonight to get a room since she had an early appointment in the morning. So in the time she spent bugging me she could have just driven back home.
I would think it would would be better to drive back home rather than sleep in your cold car, but what do I know I'm just a Bitch.
