Hotel Bill
Next time you think your hotel bill is too high...you might want to use
this logic! A husband and wife are traveling by car from Key West to
Boston. After
almost twenty-four hours on the road, they're too tired to continue, and
they decide to stop for a rest. They stop at a nice hotel and take a
room, but
they only plan to sleep for four hours and then get back on the road.
When they check out four hours later, the desk clerk hands them a bill
for $350.
The man explodes and demands to know why the charge is so high He tells
the clerk although it's a nice hotel; the rooms certainly aren't worth
$350. When
the clerk tells him $350 is the standard rate, the man insists on
speaking to the Manager. The Manager appears, listens to the man, and
then explains that
the hotel has an Olympic-size pool and a huge conference centre that
were available for the husband and wife to use. But we didn't use them,"
the man complains.
Well, they are here, and you could have," explains the Manager. He goes
on to explain they could have taken in one of the shows for which the
hotel is
famous. "The best entertainers from New York, Hollywood and Las Vegas
perform here," the Manager says. "But we didn't go to any of those
shows," complains
the man again. "Well, we have them, and you could have," the Manager
replies. No matter what facility the Manager mentions, the man replies,
"But we didn't
use it!" The Manager is not moved, and eventually the man gives up and
agrees to pay. He writes a check and gives it to the Manager. The
Manager is surprised
when he looks at the check. "But sir," he says, "This check is only made
out for $100." "That's right," says the man.
"I charged you $250 for sleeping with my wife." "But I didn't!"
exclaims the Manager. "Well," the man replies, "She was here, and u
could have".
