  • "You're a hotel!"

    So, as many of you know, I am a night shifter at a hotel.

    I had a guest call soon after I arrived who wanted extra pillows.

    #1: He had checked in (at least) 4 hours ago, and was only now asking for pillows.
    #2: It's after midnight, and I am the only one manning the desk
    #3: I don't have any pillows at the desk

    So, I told him we didn't have any more.

    C: But you're a hotel.
    Me: I'm sorry, but we are all out.
    C: Well then someone is gonna have to go to Wal-Mart and get some more. You're a hotel.
    Me: I'm sorry, but we're all out.
    C: You're a hotel.
    Me: I'm sorry, but we're all out.
    C: Fine, I'll take it up with management in the morning.

    Poor baby.

    Are you sure they didn't also ask for some extra towels, and cotton balls so you could sew them a pillow? It might have helped to give him directions to wal-mart, although, wait yeah, im pretty sure that still would have went over his head that your out of pillows and unable to help.
    I'm sorry reading is not a new concept it has been widely taught in our nation for at least the past 100 years. Please, learn to do it CORRECTLY before you become contagious.

          My manager used to hate giving out pillows. Especially for large groups of kids/teams/etc... people would like to grab extra pillows and blankets and make a bed on the floor to sleep/hangout/whatever.

          Policy eventually became 2 'extra' pillows in each room in the closet and nobody getting anymore by calling down.

            And that "someone" couldn't be him because ... ?

            Oh, wait, he's not a hotel.

              Check the closets and drawers...every other hotel where I stayed had a spare set somewhere there. That sounds like too much for this SC.
              I'm trying to see things from your point of view, but I can't get my head that far up my keister!
