"The Hotel Bill"
Next time you think your hotel bill is too high; you might want to consider this:
My wife and I are traveling by car from Victoria to Prince George. Being
Seniors, after almost eleven hours on the road, we were too tired to continue, and
decided to take a room. But, we only planned to sleep for four hours and then get
back on the road. When we checked out four hours later, the desk clerk handed us
a bill for $350.00.
I exploded and demanded to know why the charge was so high. I told
the clerk although it's a nice hotel, the rooms certainly aren't worth $350.00
for four hours.
Then the clerk tells me that $350.00 is the 'standard rate'. I
insisted on speaking to the Manager.
The Manager appears, listens to me, and then explains that the hotel has
an Olympic-sized pool and a huge conference center that were available for us to
use.
'But we didn't use them," I said.
''Well, they are here, and you could have," explained the Manager.
He went on to explain that we could also have taken in one of the shows
for which the hotel is famous. "We have the best entertainers from New York, Hollywood
, and Las Vegas perform here," the Manager says.
"But we didn't go to any of those shows," I said.
"Well, we have them, and you could have," the Manager replied.
No matter what amenity the Manager mentioned, I replied, "But we
didn't use it!"
The Manager is unmoved, and eventually I gave up and agreed to pay.
I wrote a check and gave it to the Manager.
The Manager is surprised when he looks at the cheque. But sir,
this cheque is only made out for $50.00."
''That's correct. I charged you $300.00 for sleeping with my wife," I replied.
"But I didn't!" exclaims the Manager.
I said, "Well, too bad, she was here, and you could have."
