The Notified And The (Not)ified
Caller: “I have a reservation! I know I have one!”
Me: “Okay, ma’am, I don’t appear to have one under your name. Is there another name it could be under?”
Caller: “NO! I have a reservation!”
Me: “May I ask how you booked your reservation?”
Caller: “I don’t know, but I have one!”
Me: “Okay, did you book it online? Call the hotel or choice? did you come to the hotel and book it?”
Caller: “No, I didn’t do any of those things but I know I have a reservation.”
Me: “Could anyone else have made the reservation for you? Perhaps a travel agency?”
Caller: “No, but I have a reservation! I know I do.”
Me: “Do you have a confirmation number I could look it up with?”
Caller: “No.”
Me: “Ma’am, if you didn’t book a reservation, and no one booked it for you, I don’t think you could possibly have a reservation. But, I would love to make you a reservation. In fact, I can make it right now. I’ll just need to get some information from you.”
Caller: “No, I do not give out my information. I have a reservation!” *hangs up*
