me: merry christmas, comfort inn addison, this is john
him: hey john. i stayed there for the wedding reception and my wife left some things in her room
me: before you finish; house keeping hasn't cleaned any rooms because of the holidays. we won't have anything you left in the room yet, because no one has been in the rooms
him: oh ok. well i wanted to see if you had found these shoes that she lost
me: (sigh) jesus. ok. since its the holidays, housekeeping hasn't cleaned the rooms, so i don't have anything for you to claim. if you want to call back monday, i'm sure they'll find it and have it here for you
him: so you didn't find it
me: NO. WE HAVEN'T FOUND IT BECAUSE WE HAVEN'T LOOKED. HOUSEKEEPING HAS THE WEEKEND OFF BECAUSE THE HOLIDAYS.
him: well could you tell them to go check
me: are you serious? am i speaking chinese here? ..............(awkward silence).... i tell you what (realizing i get off in half an hour). call back in an hour. i'm POSITIVE i'll have it by then
him: oh ok ! thanks!
