Because THEY'RE the ONLY people in the WORLD built to CATER TO THEM ONLY!!!

Sheesh, can't believe you didn't know THAT>

I WANT A LIKE BUTTON!!! Sorry, didn't mean to yell that .

I had a brain fart and was hoping this post would be about Bill Nye and the riot of awesome left in his wake.

You're not alone, #NYE was (unsurprisingly) trending on social media & I saw more than one comment wondering if Bill had passed...

What kind of idiot tries to book a reservation for a party on the night of the party?? Especially the biggest celebration of the year?

Yeah, yeah, I know...see name of this site...

Maybe they think that next NYE will fall on a different date. Same applies to people who wait until Christmas Eve to hunt down that year's Turboman.

Sounds like a typical night for City Fail lol!

Something like that.

Honestly, I've never had any major issues with City Fail . Then again, ANYTHING is better than my hometown's almost nonexistent rail system...so much so that I cannot take my partner on trains in our hometown whenever we visit because he spends the entire trip bitching about the trains.

Those that didn't but were still able to get to a place wound up with a VERY long delay to get home as one of the signal boxes between two major train stations wound up screwing up and there was a mass scramble to get buses.

Over here in Sydney, people were camping out on the edge of the harbour for at least 2 DAYS prior to the fireworks display because they wanted a prime position for the fireworks.

So many of these calls...

SC on the phone: "I wanted to make reservations for the gala tonight."
Me: "Unfortunately our gala and our restaurants are fully committed this evening."
SC: "There's no room left? Not even one seat?"

No, 'cause it's 6pm on NYE, m---f---!

Boy, talk about waiting until literally the last second! Buddy, you can't get space in Podunk, what makes you think you're going to find space someplace popular?

Haha even though this was full of sucks, I got a chuckle out of reading "It's NYE, m--f---!" over and over again in Samuel L. Jackson's voice.

Last night was insanely busy at The Resort. We sold out of our rooms over two weeks prior. The restaurants were booked, and in addition we have our super-stupendous annual NYE party that was full to capacity. We did end up with a few last minute cancellations so we had a couple rooms to sell with the caveat that they likely would have to dine off-site for the evening as we were otherwise full.

Things went smoothly for the most part, but I felt like I needed a pet Samual L Jackson to explain things to a few guests who just weren't getting why we were so busy. I wonder how much it costs to rent him. I will have to look into that next year. Because...

"This is the longest check-in line I've ever had to wait in!"

Yeah, the lobby is packed and the line is long. We have all available staff checking you in as fast as we can. It's busy. It's one of our busiest nights of the year. Must be 'cause it's NYE, m--f--!

"So why are you full?"

Someone came and picked up one of our last-minute cancellation rooms. They were told on the phone that the restaurants were packed. At check-in:

"So you have the party which is packed. And you have two restaurants. And you're telling me that even with the party, both restaurants are booked full?!?"

Well yeah. You know, people are out celebrating. It's sort of like it's a holiday or something. In fact, it's NYE m---f---!

"But we booked a block..."

Guest calls and is part of a group checking in Jan 1st. Now, guests who booked NYE with our party package get 2pm checkouts, and the majority of the hotel is booked on that package, so I'm not promising any early check-ins for Jan 1st.

SC: "I was hoping we could check-in early tomorrow."
Me: "Our check-in is at 4pm. If something is clean earlier we can check you in, but I should warn you we are full tonight and I don't think many of our guests will be checking out early tomorrow. It is Jan 1st, after all."
SC: "But our group booked a block of rooms to be ready!"
Me: "Yes, they booked for a block of rooms to be ready by 4pm. I can't promise anything before then."
SC: "Ugh, how can you be so busy? I'll just call back in the morning."

How can we be so busy? Is this really a difficult concept to grasp? It's NYE, m--f---!

Missing clothes

Not sucky, but one woman was laughing about how she packed 16 tops and no pants. "I'm wearing the same pants I was wearing yesterday! I completely forgot to pack any!"

Another gent lost his suit. It did turn up in lost and found, but still, just misplaced an entire suit whilst in the lobby?

What sort of madness is this? It's NYE, m--f--!!!
