This isn't much to actually complain about, but it did make my morning a bit more lively. Mods, move if desired. I just thought it was best placed here.
A guest on the ground floor put one of those soft pretzels in the microwave and turned on the machine. I have no idea how long he set the stupid thing, but it was long enough for the pretzel to actually Catch On Fire.
The smoke detector went off for a good while before I realized what the heck it was and disappeared to investigate. Luckly, it was slow today and most of the other guests had already either left for the day or checked out. So I find the guests just down the hall and the "Mother" in the group (a grandfather, a mother and her two sons) starts complaining about how Granddad could leave the pretzel in the microwave, how senile he was getting and a bunch of other rude, disrespectful things. Right in front of the guy! WTF?! Ever heard of Karma, lady? It's going to bite you on the ass one of these days!
I disappeared with Granddad to help him out in getting the smoke out of the room. I gave him the air freshener, hunted down the tool set and unlocked the windows to let the bad air vent out. Since it wasn't windy (a rare one these days, but good considering what day it is) we turned the fan on to help.
I had more of a problem with the disrespectful woman then the smoking pretzel. That was an accident. You can't hide ugly*.
