Those guests you can tell will be a pain from the start. TalesFromTheFrontDesk

Me: Good afternoon, ma'am! What's the last name?

Lady: waddles slowly up to the front desk What's my Hotel rewards account number?

Me: Okay... Let me look for it... What's the last name?

Lady: Ugh. Guest.

Me: I'm sorry, what was that? I didn't quite catch that.

Lady: GUEST! G-U-E-S-T!

snatches a random piece of paper off of my desk and grabs a pen without asking and starts to write down "rewards account number"

(Oh boy... here we go... time to bring out my inner FDA bitch)

Me: gives her the "did you really just do that?" look for stealing my pen and paper

Lady: (sarcastically) Can I borrow this?

Me: Sure! (but just to fuck with her) But that has writing on the other side so let me just take that back and here is a blank paper... Okay I found your reservation but your number isn't on file. So let me look it up.

Lady: gives me the death glare and starts tapping her fingers

Me: Okay here is the number.

Lady: Make sure my room has a refrigerator.

Me: Of course! We already have you preblocked in a room with one-

Lady: And I better be right next to Miss OtherGuest

Me: okay...

Lady: taps fingers some more

Me: Alright and your ID and Card for incidentals since the room and tax is taken care of by your company.

Lady: hands me her ID

Me: Alright and your credit card?

Lady: It's on file

Me: No... your company card is on file for room and tax only. You will need to present your own card for incidentals.

Lady: They didn't ask for one last time I was here.

Me: Okay... last time maybe the company was paying for all charges. This time you will need to present your own card.

Lady: My own card is on file! It carries over from the first time I stayed here.

Me: Well this time it didn't, so I need a card to check you in, okay?
