His Haggling Has Rooms For Improvement

(I work as a front desk clerk at a mid/low range hotel it was about mid-shift but my boss who usually takes over for me is there. Two customers come in, both old men.)

Me: “Sir, you may only use one discount per room.”

Customer: “Well, if you come with the room, I’ll take it.”

Customer’s Friend: *as he laughs* “You’ve lost your touch, old man.”
