That’s Not How Hotels Work — Or Days of The Week, Either

While house hunting, my husband and I stay in a hotel. One evening, my husband is passing through the lobby and overhears this gem.

Hotel Clerk: “Ma’am, I understand you made a reservation, but that reservation was for Wednesday. Today is Friday. We don’t have a room for you.”

Woman: “But I tried to make a reservation for Friday and [Third-Party Website] wouldn’t let me! So, I made the reservation for Wednesday instead and opened a ticket with them. So why don’t you have my reservation?!”

Apparently, she was quite incensed and couldn’t figure out why the clerk couldn’t just magically pull up her non-existent reservation. My husband left before hearing more, but I feel for that poor clerk!
