Occasionally, it's that one tiny, unimportant incident that drives you over the edge and beyond the point of no return. The story that follows recounts the moment a front desk receptionist witnesses a complete and total meltdown of a person caused by a blocked door.

The Original Poster's (OP) account details his meeting with the most horrible man-child. OP was working the front desk when a man, his mother, and their two kids pulled into the hotel parking lot. The two ports of entry that are accessible from the parking lot itself are the front and back entrances. But for the last five years or so, the hotel has had problems with its rear entry. Therefore, everything goes south as soon as the entitled guest reaches for the door. The arrogant guest begins noisily hammering on the glass, refusing to accept that he might have to go around the building to get to the main door. After a little while, OP notices the commotion happening on the other side of the building and requests that the guest stop his shenanigans. But OP gets a very snarky, extremely angry, comment in return...

That being said, if you're interested in learning what happens next, make sure to read the story below! Additionally, after you're through, remember to read the story about the guest that gets kicked out of hotel at 1am following 'towel dispute'!

    Here we are less than an hour into my shift and I already have a story to tell. Tonight a man with his kids and his mother came in around 11:30. They came in the front, checked in, then moved their car behind the building. For reference there are doors on both sides and the back of the

    building that you can use your room key to get in to. The back door has been pretty fidgety so sometimes it won't unlock. Well, the man and his mom got locked out and I'm in the back at this point so I don't hear them knocking, so they start banging on the GLASS door. Most

    people have common sense and would cut their losses and go around. Not these people though. I open the door and I tell them "hey I understand that it's an inconvenience but please don't bang on the glass door, people have broken it before and I don't want

    y'all to have to deal with that.” I recode their keys and they try the door again and I'm at the desk this time. It doesn't work and the man starts banging at the door AGAIN. I politely ask him again not to bang on the door and he just loses it. “I'll bang on this s t as long as I need to

    options settled well with him so he starts yelling at me. "F k this we're going somewhere else you need to fix your f king st" while pointing at me. His poor mom is telling him to calm down and in my head I'm just imagining him in a diaper crying. Not to mention his kids were

    about how "that's f king stupid" and there should always be someone around for that. Now I'm explaining why we don't need a manager during night audit while he looks like he's about to cry. His mom starts grabbing his kids and getting ready to take them back to their car

    and he gets in my face and yells at me to call a manager. I tell him no (because she had been there for 15 hours today and just went home) and his mom pretty much drags him out. Not before he literally starts flailing and kicking luggage carts
