    Maliciously Complianced Myself: Ski Resort
  • 02
    Wife and I decided we wanted our kids to learn how to ski so we bought a black Friday deal at the local ski resort of lesson packages. Two of them. They came with 5 lessons, rentals, half day passes, and a season pass after the lessons to the resort for like $500/kid. It was a good deal.

    Anyway we get through 3 lessons early in the season and the kids are getting the hang of it so I request from the lodge if I could have the season passes early so we can go more. The nice lady was like no we don't do that you have to complete the

    lessons first. I protest and ask to speak to the manager. He agrees and issues the season passes early in the season in December.

    He got me... My dumb butt didn't know they go year to year instead of ending at the end of the snow season there by making them useless for the following year of skiing. If I had

    finished the lessons we might have had a full extra year of skiing included.... Now I have to go buy season passes again cause my kids love it! Lol... F me.

    InQue623 OP. Yes I did. I feel pretty stupid. I wasn't mean about it in my request but I didn't get what I wanted.

    I'm sure the manager knew what I was doing. Lesson learned!

    Smeegs3 Season pass should apply to the season. I've never heard of a ski resort using annual dates for passes. I would be livid

    pepperjack87. That the dumbest thing ever. totally not your fault. Every resort I've ever heard of sells "season passes" not "yearly passes"

    GelatinousSalsa. Did the manager or anyone else inform you that the season passes was per calendar year and not snow season before you insisted on getting them early?

    InQue623 OP. They may have tried explaining it to me but I did not clearly understand it obviously. I'm sure the nice lady tried at first. I guess it's a commonly understood thing

    at this resort but i of course didn't understand it. I thought like most of you that the season pass ended with the current snow season so i requested the passes early to try and get more use out of them.

    KG8893 They are both asses. They could have just explained that to you. I'd be calling whoever is that guys boss to get a refund. You could also just go skiing a shit load this month to make up for it...
