Petty?

Here's an email I received today....I thought it was quite amusing and so I wanted to share it with all you lovely people!



The following letters are taken from an actual incident between a
London hotel and one of its guests last year. The hotel ended up submitting the letters to the Sunday Times.


----------------------------------------------------

Dear Maid,

Please do not leave any more of those little bars of soap in my
bathroom
since I have brought my own bath-sized Imperial Leather. Please remove
the
six unopened little bars from the shelf under the medicine chest and
another
three in the shower soap dish. They are in my way.

Thank you,
S. Berman

-----------------------------------------

Dear Room 635,

I am not your regular maid. She will be back tomorrow, Thursday, from
her
day off. I took the 3 hotel soaps out of the shower soap dish as you
requested. The 6 bars on your shelf I took out of your way and put on
top of
your Kleenex dispenser in case you should change your mind.
This leaves only the 3 bars I left today which my instructions from the
management are to leave 3 soaps daily. I hope this is satisfactory.

Kathy,
Relief Maid

----------------------------------------------

Dear Maid

I hope you are my regular maid.
Apparently Kathy did not tell you about my note to her concerning the
little
bars of soap. When I got back to my room this evening, I found you had
added
3 little Camay's to the shelf under my medicine cabinet. I am going to
be
here in the hotel for two weeks and have brought my own bath-size
Imperial
Leather, so I won't need those 6 little Camay's, which are on the
shelf.
They are in the way when shaving, brushing teeth etc. Please remove
them.

S. Berman

------------------------------------------------------

Dear Mr Berman,

The assistant manager, Mr Kensedder, informed me this morning that you
called him last evening and said you were unhappy with your maid
service. I
have assigned a new girl to your room. I hope you will accept my
apologies
for any past inconvenience. If you have any future complaints, please
contact me so I can give it my personal attention. Call extension 1108
between 8AM and 5PM.

Thank you.
Elaine Carmen
Housekeeper

---------------------------------------------------

Dear Miss Carmen,

It is impossible to contact you by phone since I leave the hotel for
business at 7:45 AM and don't get back before 5:30 or 6.00 PM. That's
the
reason I called Mr Kensedder last night. You were already off duty. I
only
asked Mr Kensedder if he could do anything about those little bars of
soap.
The new maid you assigned me must have thought I was a new check in
today,
since she left another 3 bars of hotel soap in my medicine cabinet,
along
with her regular delivery of 3 bars on the bathroom shelf. In just 5
days
here I have accumulated 24 little bars of soap. Why are you doing this
to
me?

S. Berman

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Mr Berman,

Your maid, Kathy, has been instructed to stop delivering soap to your
room
and to remove the extra soaps. If I can be of further assistance,
please
call extension 1108 between 8 AM and 5 PM.

Thank you,
Elaine Carmen,
Housekeeper

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Mr Kensedder,

My bath-size Imperial Leather is missing. Every bar of soap was taken
from
my room, including my own bath-size Imperial Leather. I came in late
last
night and had to call the bellhop to bring me 4 little Cashmere
Bouquets.

S. Berman

----------------------------------------------

Dear Mr Berman,

I have informed our housekeeper, Elaine Carmen, of your soap problem. I
cannot understand why there was no soap in your room since our maids
are
instructed to leave 3 bars of soap each time they service a room. The
situation will be rectified immediately. Please accept my apologies for
the
inconvenience.

Martin L. Kensedder
Assistant Manager

------------------------------------------------

Dear Mrs Carmen,

Who the hell left 54 little bars of Camay in my room? I came in last
night
and found 54 little bars of soap. I don't want 54 little bars of Camay.
I
want my one damn bar of bath-size Imperial Leather. Do you realise I
have 54
bars of soap in here? All I want is my bath-size Imperial Leather.
Please
give me back my bath-size Imperial Leather.

S. Berman

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear Mr Berman,

You complained of too much soap in your room, so I had them removed.
Then
you complained to Mr Kensedder that all your soap was missing, so I
personally returned them. The 24 Camay's which had been taken and the 3
Camay's you are supposed to receive daily. I don't know anything about
the 4
Cashmere Bouquets. Obviously your maid, Kathy, did not know I had
returned
your soaps, so she also brought 24 Camay's plus the 3 daily Camay's I
don't
know where you got the idea this hotel issues bath-size Imperial
Leather. I
was able to locate some bath-size Ivory which I left in your room.

Elaine Carmen
Housekeeper

----------------------------------------------------

Dear Mrs Carmen,

Just a short note to bring you up-to-date on my latest soap inventory.
As of
today I possess:
* On the shelf under the medicine cabinet -18 Camay in 4 stacks of 4
and 1
stack of 2.
* On the Kleenex dispenser - 11 Camay in 2 stacks of 4 and 1 stack of
3.
* On the bedroom dresser - 1 stack of 3 Cashmere Bouquet, 1 stack of 4
hotel-size Ivory, and 8 Camay in 2 stacks of 4.
* Inside the medicine cabinet - 14 Camay in 3 stacks of 4 and 1 stack
of 2.
* In the shower soap dish - 6 Camay, very moist.
* On the Northeast corner of the tub - 1 Cashmere Bouquet, slightly
used.
* On the Northwest corner of the tub - 6 Camay's in 2 stacks of 3.

Please ask Kathy when she services my room to make sure the stacks are
neatly piled and dusted. Also, please advise her that stacks of more
than 4
have a tendency to tip. May I suggest that my bedroom window sill is
not in
use and will make an excellent spot for future soap deliveries.
One more item, I have purchased another bar of bath-size Imperial
Leather,
which I am keeping in the hotel vault in order to avoid further
misunderstandings.

I worked in hotels for 5 years...doesn't surprise me a bit. And the more stars the hotel has, the more quirky and stupid and petty the guests get.


edited to add...I had to move a guest b/c her room wasn't correct by feng shui standards...another guest said her curtains hung unevenly and she couldn't bear to be there another night...a flight attendent bitched about having to pay for an upgrade (although they know that they are contracted for a room type, and they don't pay for the damn room in the first place) on a night when the hotel was at over 90% occupied.

When people walk through a hotel door they lose between 10 and 40 iq points on average.

 

[lovetoread]

lol,those poor women.

 

[Chuckus]

throw the damn soap away if it's in your way, gheeeeeeeeeeshhhhhhhh.

Some people...........that's beyond anal.

I run a restaurant, and I've met some real dumbasses. Predictably it's a chinese restaurant, and i've had a guy come up to me and ask me in all seriousness if we serve rice. I was so tempted to say "No, we've run out"

Do it just once. Tell them you've run out of rice and would they be so kind as to go and get you some.........see what their reaction is!

I have a Nextel (the phone with the walkie talkie feature) at work......and people will buzz me and ask me "Do you have a minute?" ..........to some the answer is "No, but catch me in about 8 hours and I will"...............

I don't think my customers would appreciate my unique humour as much as you would

Maybe you should come and ask me...watch me stick a pair of chopsticks up your ass and throw you out the window

SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET.

Don't you just feel like going to those people who ask you about the rice "Here is your sign stupid!"

 

[deliciously_naughty]

You could always say something back to them like "no, we only serve bbq"

 

[Chuckus]

You could always say something back to them like "no, we only serve bbq"

or "Currently we are out of rice, however we are serving fried maggots in their place!"

 

[Ask For More]

You guys crack me up!

I once told a customer that I only had one pair of hands, when they asked for several things at once. Admittedly I'd already established a bit of a friendly banter with them beforehand, but I think they were a little bit miffed by my comment

Last week someone asked me for a teriyaki steak. I felt like slapping them....

 

[Chuckus]

Humor is so cool ain't it? It isn't overrated.................laughter is good.

As for the teriyaki steak...............sounds good.

I'll let you cook it then
I'll give you some flied lice to go with it
