Their Common Sense Has Gone To The Reservation
(I work in a hotel.)
Me: “Thank you for calling. How may I help you?”
Customer: “Hi, I want to cancel my reservation.”
Me: “Okay, what’s your reservation number?”
Customer: “I don’t know.”
Me: “Okay. Did you make the reservation here, or with an agency?”
Customer: “I don’t know; I didn’t make it.”
Me: “Okay, under whose name is it?”
Customer: “I already told you; I didn’t make it. I don’t know.”
Me: “Okay, which hotel and which dates do you have?”
(We are a big chain with hotels all over the world.)
Customer: “Yeah, it’s for some date in September, and somewhere in Mexico.”
Me: “Where in Mexico? We have 20 hotels in different locations there.”
Customer: “I don’t know! Can you just cancel my reservation?”
Me: “I have to find it first, but if you don’t give me more information, it’s going to be hard to do so.”
Customer: “Okay, just leave it the way it is, but if I get charged, I will report you because you didn’t want to help me.”
(Then, they hung up.)
