May I Have a Room, Room please, Room please....

 Let me begin by saying that our hotel was all booked out for the week of Paddy's Day due to some groups in house, and naturally when we're fully booked for the week all of our other regulars who did not book ahead of time requests to be on the waiting list.
  Now, I am a very patient person and there's a period of time that you can ask me the same questions every time and at a specific period of time and I'll probably answer you with the same answers but after 3 days and you're still asking me the same question, I really get annoyed! I know that I should really be proud and flattered that people love the place a lot not to give up on any chance that there may be a cancellation and they can be booked in on that note, but after awhile of listening to the same tune, it really gets old and tiring. Why is it so hard for people to just stop for a minute and think that maybe if they stop for a awhile, they can extend their energies into something more productive, like maybe getting over the fact that the hotel is sold out and looking for another place to stay rather than trying in futility, again and again and again, knowing that they will only get the same result.

Happy Paddy's Day 
Regular Guest: Are you still kicking me off the hotel? Where there any cancellations today?

Owl: Oh sir, I'm afraid were still all booked. But, let me think for awhile...

Regular Guest: turns to me with an expectant look in his eyes...

Owl: hmmm...maybe I can ask my colleague from housekeeping to bring you some blankets and sheets and you can camp out here in the lobby, just by the fireplace. Or do you prefer  for me to go to the engineering office and build you a room somewhere that is attached to the hotel, may take a awhile thou... or did you want me to tell the highest paying guest to pack his bags so you can move cozily to his room... Let me know which option you'd like and I'll gladly fucking attend to it immediately!

  Oh if only... if only i knew how...

  Happy Paddy's Day to everyone, sorry i'm a little sour, I am on a two week break after Paddy's weekend so I feel relieved in a way, had a wonderful and quiet weekend with people that I like and even though I am not travelling anywhere nice I am OK....
