No, We Kick All The Guests Out After Ten

I work at the call center of a local casino/hotel resort. While I get asked this same question several times every Sunday, this Sunday happens to be April 1st.

Caller: “Are you guys open today?”

Me: “Yes, sir. We’re open twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.”

There’s a pause on the line before:

Caller: *In a very suspicious tone* “Is this April Fools?”

I had to spend fifteen minutes trying to convince him that, no, casinos and hotels don’t close on Sundays, and even if they did, they wouldn’t have their employees come in when they’re closed and tell people they’re open as a joke. When the guy finally hung up, he still didn’t sound totally convinced.
