[耍冷] the hotel manager

[mikoshino (秋夜未眠)]

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.
The man insists on speaking to the Manager.

The Manager appears, listens to the man, and
then explains that the hotel has an Olympic-sized
pool and a huge conference center 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 unmoved, 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 you
could have."
