'I can't just take your word for it': Entitled guest tries to check in under false name, front desk clerk refuses to comply, sparking heated debate in hotel lobby

It's never simple to work in the customer service sector. You frequently interact with a wide range of individuals and are never sure what to anticipate. Having said that, given the obvious drawbacks of this line of work, there must be some benefits, right?

The account following was written by an irate front desk clerk. The original poster (OP) has a very lengthy history of employment in the hospitality sector. Even though at first things were going quite well, as expected, all it takes is one person to push you over the line and make you wonder if you are in the right field.

That being said, be sure to read the story below if you're interested in learning more about what enraged OP to the point where he felt compelled to vent on Reddit! After browsing the story, reading the comments, and maybe even adding a few of your own, don't forget to read the story about the boss who defends his staff from an entitled client and wins over $100,000 in compensation for the business and employees!
