'She doesn’t take this answer well': Hotel front desk worker faces off with dozens of executives and their assistants for yearly Board of Directors meeting

What's the deal with king-sized beds? That's the question on the minds of the commenters on this story about a hotel that became overrun by executives and their bossy assistants. 

This front desk worker, u/KOd06, has a least favorite week of the year. They work at a hotel, and they dread a yearly convention of the hotel's Board of Directors. Where do these big wigs stay? Well, at the hotel they're on the board of, obviously. That means that managers are running around trying to make everyone's stay 100% perfect. They can't let a single thing go wrong. And, as this person shared to r/TalesFromTheFrontDesk, this comes at the expense of other hotel guests and hotel staffers alike. With everyone bending over backward to try and appease the higher-ups, it becomes a cluster of bossy executive assistants and needy executives. 

This story revolves around one executive assistant's quest for a king-sized bed. "But why?" wondered commenters. Isn't a queen-sized bed almost the same thing? Is it just a power play for execs who need to feel powerful? You can scroll down and read the full story and comments to see for yourself. 

Up next, these hotel managers installed cameras, and one worker has been trying absolutely everything to mess with their heads.
