  • Why don't you leave?

    Check out time is the best/right time! But some check outs just won't leave! Why, check outs? Why won't you leave? Whenever I check out someone I think of the lyrics: Get out! Leave! Right Now! It's the End of YOU! LOL But seriously, why won't they leave?
    Had a guy I'll call Thick as a Brick Rick check out a week ago. Instead of leaving and not returning like a good little check out, he chose to stay and break into our closet where we keep the spare cots in and use on of them. When confronted, he claimed that he was visiting his aunt, of whom we couldn't verify. He was thrown out again. The next day after that, he returned and started chowing down our breakfast and stealing our snacks from our shop. He was thrown out. The next day, he returned, was confronted, and claimed that he was visiting his sister, again, we couldn't verify. Thrown out again. Finally the day after that, he claimed that he left something and was going to get it, and when the security guard was just about to throw him out again, he hurriedly said that he wanted to check some rates. Ok. I told him the rates. Then he asked if it was ok if he and 10 of his friends would throw a party in the rooms. Ok, Rick. Ok, Buh bye. Finally left.
    We had a lot of people who just wouldn't leave before, had to call the police, but they got the hint and didn't return. The only thing I can fathom form Rick's behavior was that he was young (teen). But I didn't behave that way when I was a teen. The weirdest part though, was that he would chat with us and the other customers! Usually weirdos like him sneak upstairs and don't talk to anyone, try to make themselves obscure. Not Rick though. I guess we should've called police but oh well. He's gone now so alls well.

    Bonus unrelated story: Had a lady whose first name on her reservation was Maryj. Weird name but I've seen weirder trust me. Figured it was one of those names in a land far far away. Anyway, so I was printing up her reg card for her to sign and she took one look at it and flipped out! Apparently, her name wasn't Maryj, it was Mary J! Whoops! She declared that we were idiots for not getting her name right, and demanded her reservation to be cancelled because she didn't want to stay in a hotel of idiots. Truth is, she's the idiot for not typing her name right on the reservation! And her reservation showed that she had booked it, not us. Her room was quickly snapped up.

    Can't reason with the unreasonable.

    Sounds he was more of a Eagles fan,

    "you can check out anytime but never leave"

    Sarcasm dear, sarcasm. I’m well aware that dealing with civilians in any capacity will skin your faith in humanity alive, then pickle anything that remains so as to watch it shrivel up into an immortal husk thus reminding you of how dead inside you now are.

              I'm shocked Thick as a Brick Rick didn't end up with a free room at the local jail...

              One hopes she couldn't get another room elsewhere. It would be fun to see her slink back and sheepishly ask for her room only to be told you were sold out!

                it goes like this:

                You can check out anytime you like
                But you can never leave

                    Here if they aren't by a few hours past checkout, they get charged for another day no matter when they decide to get their rears in gear and leave. EDIT after reading. I wonder if that guy had some kind of disorder that interferes with understanding social expectations. Sounds like it.

                          Sounds like Mary J truly is a dope. Did you put the person who snapped up the now-available space in room 420?

                          From the Spanish, it means "little buds" ("ito" and "ita" are diminutive suffixes for masculine and feminine nouns respectively). A reference to C. Sativa (and I don't mean the chestnut ).

                          Ever heard the expression "I'm so hungry I could eat a horse"? Would that person go for a burro instead of a burrito? Also, did Lindsay Lohan go out for a few margaras?
