When she checked out the next morning, the desk clerk handed her a bill for $250. She exploded.
— This is a nice hotel, but the room isn’t worth $250 for one night. I didn’t even have breakfast!
The clerk said $250 was the standard rate, so she asked for the manager.
The manager arrived and explained that the hotel had an Olympic-sized pool and a huge conference center.
— But I didn’t use them, she said.
— Well, they are here, and you could have, the manager replied.
He added that she could also have seen one of the hotel’s famous shows, with entertainers from around the world.
— But I didn’t go to any of those shows, she said.
— Well, we have them, and you could have, he replied.
No matter what amenity he mentioned, she answered the same way: she hadn’t used it. And every time, the manager gave the same answer.
After several minutes, she gave up arguing, wrote a check, and handed it to him. The manager looked down and frowned.
— Madam, this check is for only $50.
— That’s correct. I charged you $200 for sl€€p!ng with me, she replied.
— But I didn’t! exclaimed the very surprised manager.
— Well, too bad, I was here, and you could have.
Did she go too far, or did the manager deserve that lesson? Share it with someone who appreciates a sharp comeback 😄
