Why would someone think that the best thing to do after being kicked out of a hotel is to tell that story to the front desk employee at another hotel?


Guests are sometimes not only bad and disrespectful, but also extremely dumb. As if they weren't thinking before they talk. Or maybe they think that just because they are paying for a room, they have the right to say and do whatever they want. As if money bought everything, well, it doesn't. Having an attitude towards a front desk employee can 100% make you lose a reservation, and the fact that some guests don't know or think about this before they open their mouths baffles me. In this Reddit story, it is quite funny how clueless this guest had to be to act so carelessly, even though it would cost him the reservation. Maybe next time it's better to think before you talk.  


It's extremely shocking to me how some people manage. You go to a hotel to get a room and decide to pull a fire alarm to be disruptive? What is going on in your head to do that? Then the police come and kick you out, so you go to another hotel and immediately start talking trash about the previous hotel as if what they did was wrong. That not only caused you to not get a room in the new hotel, but it also shows how entitled you are. The fact that someone is so full of themselves that thinks not only that they can do whatever they want but also that no repercussions are really serious is incredible. 
If I were ever pulled out of a hotel by police workers, I'd be so ashamed of myself that I would immediately call a family member so they can pick me up and go home. But that wasn't the case with this guest. He had the luck not to get incarcerated for his scene, and he wastes it trying to act the same way in a new place and talking disrespectfully about the employees who had to put up with him. 
 

What concerns me the most is that if he hadn't started to tell his story to the other hotel worker, he may have gotten himself another room, and probably made a mess again. Because he proved that he didn't care and that he was entitled enough to believe that repercussions didn't mean anything. Acting like that in public is not excusable. No matter the state you are in, it's just blatantly disrespectful.

  • It's 2:30am, I'm working audit, and I have a guy walk in asking if we have any rooms available. This hotel is right near the beach and very close to a good few bars, it's not unusual to have people come in late on short notice because they partied too hard and realized they couldn't get themselves home, so the fact that he was very clearly not sober didn't raise much alarm for me besides the general mental preparation to deal with someone who might become belligerent.

  • However, where this man screwed up is admitting that he had had a room at a nearby hotel a couple blocks away, but "the a h le manager kicked [him] out and called the cops for no reason" and details how his dad had paid for a room for him with an authorization form. Immediate alarm bells, nope, we're totally sold out and don't possibly have anything available for the next few days, sorry but good luck finding somewhere elsewhere. He grumbles a bit about me not

  • letting him hang out in the lobby but finally leaves after getting some water. Now I'm curious. I'm sure we all know that hotels do not like to evict guests unless absolutely necessary. There are a half dozen hotels within walking distance of each other in this stretch of beach, so we all have pretty good rapport with each other. Of course my nosy a is gonna call the hotel he was kicked from to learn the actual story.

  • Well obviously he was not evicted for "no reason". Turns out, he was on some manner of dr__s which compelled him to pull the fire alarm on one of the guest floors at 10:30pm, got a warning for it, and proceeded to pull that stunt again at 1:30am. For whatever reason the manager didn't want to evict on the first instance, but having it happen again ped off too many other guests that they'll definitely have to comp some rooms tonight, thus this idiot was kicked to the curb.

  • only didn't call to warn the other nearby hotels because she saw him leaving with police and thought he got arrested. The fact that he has no payment on hand and had to have his daddy pay means no one in the area is gonna rent to him anyways, but had he not slipped and given me his tale about why he needs a room, I at least would've genuinely tried to help him and go over availability and rates until we hit the payment

  • arrested and thrown in the drink tank for pulling an alarm not just once, but twice in one night! Firefighters respond to all alarms like it is the real deal, cause you never know it's not until they get there and assess the situation. Getting called out twice in one night to the same location for a false alarm is super annoying and a massive

  • waste of emergency resources. There could be another emergency nearby that they didn't get to respond to or are late to respond to because they are over at the hotel. And they're not as rested and ready to respond to the next emergency. The guy should have been locked up and then charged with wasting resources.

  • Sharikacat Absolutely baffling that an intentional fire alarm pull didn't warrant an eviction.

  • SkwrlTail Yeah, I'll never understand why they play for sympathy that way. I mean, maybe they think we hate our competitors a lot? Or that we're absolutely desperate for guests? Just imagining a grubby Dickensian urchin, tattered cap clenched in soot- stained hands. "Please guv'nor, I got frown out by the cruellest tavern

  • rebelangel Yeah, no hotel is going to call the cops on a guest for "no reason". Total red flag.

  • eure_maum Surprised the cops weren't called when he pulled the alarm a second time. We'd get a visit from the Fire Chief or Assistant Fire Chief. Hit both when our alarm sixteen was malfunctioning.
