just minor BS this time...
TWO different people apparently thinking the office is the '24 hour quick E mart' or something.... one outrightly asked me if we were open all the time uhh no, we close at 10pm on weekends.
the other came up shortly before we closed the doors and made disappointed/irritated noises that we closed "at 10"... and the way he said it implied he expected us to be open later than 10.
srsly people, we're a campground! you're LUCKY we don't close at 6 like some of them! you want 24 hour availability... hit the walmart in town 3 miles away!
on the bright side, i only had one after hours door yanker. dude seemed just a little toasted, i went and found out what he wanted, and all he needed was a bottle of lighter fluid so he could start his camp fire (it's been raining here, so damp wood not wanting to catch) and he was desperate. i'd told him i already counted the drawers (even though i technically had one left), and he was like "please, i'll give you cash, i don't even need change!" i took pity and grabbed a bottle off the shelf it had a tag on it $4.99. he handed me a $5. there's tax in WI. i gave him a little smirk like 'come on dude, really?" but just wanted him out of my hair ASAP (had a big mess to clean up in addition to counting down the last drawer) so i took it and bid him a good night... then rang up the lighter fluid with my employee discount and threw the change into the penny jar
