Almost The Honeymoon Suite
Working the check-in counter at a major Las Vegas hotel/casino, you hear all sorts of jokes and comments from all sorts of people. You learn to roll with it. An older guy starts checking in:
Me: “May I have your last name, please?”
Guest: *Smiling.* “Only if you marry me.”
I point to the row of seven coworkers all processing check-ins at the same time as me.
Me: “Sir, I currently have one single empty suite that’s eligible for a free upgrade for a customer holding the same loyalty status as you do. All my coworkers have access to that same suite, and the first one of us who completes a check-in for a guest can offer that—”
Guest: “—Smith! It’s Smith! Smith!”
Me: “Thank you, Mr. Smith.”
I complete the check-in and get the (now very quick and direct) man his complimentary upgrade.
