Caution: Extreme bitchiness ahead.

People.

I need to vent.

If you don't want to read it, don't.

Anyway, I work at a hotel. You probably already know that.

Here are a series of things that are pissing me off.

1. People who don't LISTEN.

When you call my hotel, there is an automated dude who says "Thank you for calling Jennelou's big ass fucking flibbity hotel, blah blah blah, press 6 for the operator. I can not tell you how many people immediately ask "Is this Jennelou's big ass fucking flibbity hotel?

I so want to transfer these people back to the main message and make them listen again. Sadly, it won't work because they will just call back and ask the same fucking thing. Also, please note that you have to press 6 for the operator, 0 does not work. So, these fucking dumbasses have to listen to the whole goddamn message, and still they don't get it.

2. People who ask for a quiet room. Please understand, I don't mind if you ask not to be near the ice machines or elevators. I get it. But a "quiet room"? As opposed to what, a noisy room? People, let me explain something to you. A hotel will never be as quiet as your house. Fucking get over it or stay home. Then there are the asshats who ask to be "away from everyone else". I would be happy to do that, if you want to pay for all the rooms around you. Otherwise, fuck you.

Which brings me to my next point. If the people near you are fucking obnoxious, let us know. We will take care of it. If you don't let us know, don't expect to whine and complain and get a discount in the morning. I want you to enjoy your stay, really. But if there is a problem and you don't let me know I can't fix it. Whining about it in the morning kind of makes you look like an entitlement whore.

3. People who say "Are the rooms nice". Think about this. I am an employee of the hotel. Even if the place was a fucking shithole, do you think I am going to tell you that?

4. If you don't like our rates, stay somewhere else. Don't ask me how nice the other hotels are in the area, what their rates are, etc. If you want to know, CALL THEM. I don't work for them. DUH.

5. Do your research. Don't bitch at me because we don't have a restaurant. I never said we did, our website doesn't say we do. We are LIMITED SERVICE. If you want full service, go to a full service hotel and expect to pay more. And shut the fuck up.

6. Our shuttle van is not your personal taxi. Call us when you are ready to be picked up, don't expect us to sit and wait for you for 20 minutes. You are not special and we have other guests. If we bring you to the drugstore, get in, get your shit, and get your ass back outside. Again, we have other guests who might like to go somewhere. Call a cab if you want someone to wait for you.

7. Yes, our shuttle van is clearly marked, dumbass. I am busy. It is not necessary to ask me 56 questions about the make, model, gas mileage, and extensive history of our van. It is clearly marked, you can't miss it. Believe me.

8. I am sorry that the computers in the business center are fucked up again. If you pervs would stop looking at porn and other inappropriate sites they probably wouldn't constantly have viruses and spyware. Fucking duh.

9. When I ask what credit card you would like to guarantee your room with, YES I NEED THE NUMBER. WTF.

10. Yes I need you a form of payment at check-in. No, you may not just pay at checkout. If I need to explain why, you fail at life. No, you may not use someone else's card without written authorization. Just because they called and made the reservation does not mean I don't need something in writing. Identity theft is rampant. It is for your own safety. Shut up.

My employees are friggin dumb to, but I will save that for another time.

I feel better now.

Red is a genius with words. He's good at sticking feet in asses.

This list is similar to a list I would have made when I was waitressing. I don't like people. The public are stupid and mean.
