make me breakfast

[vacation_rentals_suck]

This one happened today actually

Guest: I have been waiting all morning for my breakfast

Me: I'm sorry?

Guest: Nobody has brought me my breakfast yet and I am a little agitated

Me: we dont do that, sir

Guest: NO....you have got to be kidding me....so how do I get breakfast?

Me: you can go to the nearby grocery store and get a few things

Guest: you mean you expect me to cook it myself when I am on vacation. No you're gonna go to the grocery store and take my order and serve me breakfast

Me: Uh, no sir, I'm not

Guest: you got a smart mouth, boy......I want an explanation for why YOU didnt tell me meals werent included

Me: did you ask?

Guest: No, I assumed that you wouldnt rent to someone and not provide meals

Me: I am sorry, we dont

Guest: well then I am going home and I want a full refund

Me: Let me let you speak to the manager

I will let you know how this one turns out

OMG. Ok, if I ever win the lotto and can stay where you work, I'll show you how a Non-SC behaves... 'cause it doesn't seem like you get any nice people there!

[Automan Empire]

One should always be impeccably polite and just ESPECIALLY to those who provide their food. To everyone, really, but especially those who make your food.

It says a lot about a person's character...not to mention the thoroughness of their self-interest... to see how they behave when dealing with the people who provide their food.

(Disclaimer, this shall not be construed as approving food adulteration... just interesting sociology.)

um... I have rented from a condo place like the one you describe working at... I am not a mensa member but i was able to figure out the whole "we let you rent a kitchen you can bring your own food" thing... I mean vacation means go somewhere new try new places to eat and if you rent a condo save a bit of money making your own food once and a while...

[Polenicus]

Wha...? Since when is food provided for you at ANY vacation spot?

I mean, unless we're talking a cruise or a package deal here, meals are generally NOT included. EVER. Go to a 5 star hotel, book a room... they ain't gonna feed you unless you ask for it, and pay them for it. You might get some complimentary stuff because you paid an arm and a leg, but it's certainly not expressly included.

Why on EARTH would someone assume that, after renting a cottage or villa or whatever, that someone would drive up and give them breakfast?

Actually, a lot of hotels on Earth provide meals. The one I stayed at when I first moved to Italy provided two meals a day.

1,000 Places to See Before You Die lists a lot of places where meals are included (and the cost of staying there for a week).

It's mostly a non-American thing, I've noticed, though - other than the occasional continental breakfast, I've never seen it done in the States.

Usually, it says under the price of the room, "Meals included", though. If it doesn't, and you expect it, be prepared to starve.

You'll let us know how it turns out? Hmm, a manager gave a customer 25% off the bill for not having towel warmers. WTF?? I'm sure this customer will ask management to jump and they'll just ask how high.

You forgot about the EW that screamed and bitched about not paying the regular rate and demanding a discount and sure enough got a higher discount. Oh and there's the EW that didn't wanna leave at 10am for check out and got to stay later and both those asshats got their way because of the spineless manager. I'm praying that the manager this time didn't cater to serving his Highness' breakfast.

I at least hope that, should he cave in, he'll have the courteousness of attending to His Royal Majesty of Fucktardy himself, and not lay the burden on one his employees' shoulders...

[Phantomgrift]

Holy Crap... Between this and Towel-Warmer Man, what kind of pretentious yuppie jackasses end up staying in these villas?!

You have my heartfelt condolances mate!

[Aramika]

VRS, what the hell is in the water around where you work to cause all of these spineless managers and EWs?

[jerkface11]

Yeah but he's also got a manager who cancelled a wedding after the guests had arrived and one (maybe the same one?) who cancelled a reservation with no refund after the woman was abusive.

[Music Mo-Gal]

Next time, maybe this guy should stay at a Bed and Breakfast.

I hope management doesn't make you cook for him! Are you a good cook? Maybe you could make the eggs too runny or something.

[crazylegs]

Hmm, cook him breakfast.

Rightho,

Get 2x eggs
2x Rashers of bacon
2x sausages (pork and leek are nice)
2x Hash Browns (well, we're not skimping on his royal bitchiness are we?)
2x Pieces of toast
1x Bowlful of cereal (again, his choice, as he's soooo important)
1x cupful of milk

Stick it all in a blender then slowly cook for about 20 minutes? Yer, that shoulddo it.

Then serve.

Hey, it's breakfast right?

[taxguykarl]

The problem is that Dave's linguini-spined manager might just make him prep a breakfast for this [CENSORED]
