I Fired The Hotel Staff For Cancelling My Hotel Room
Luminance
“Sorry, but due to the holiday, we’re overbooked. Your reservation has been canceled. Here’s a fifty-dollar voucher as compensation.”
The hotel front desk clerk handed me a voucher with a perfunctory tone.
I looked at her coldly. Then, I looked at the man next to her, who had just arrived. He had not even shown his ID, yet the clerk respectfully handed him a presidential suite key card.
“Why can he check in without even showing an ID? Meanwhile, my room, which I booked a full week in advance, was canceled without explanation. And all I get is a lousy fifty-dollar voucher?”
The front desk clerk let out a scornful laugh as she walked up to me.
“Because he’s Mr. Ludwig, the heir of Grandview Group! His family owns the entire hotel. Do you think it’s just a matter of one room? If he wanted the whole hotel emptied out tonight, we’d do it. Who do you think you are?
“If you keep standing here causing trouble and getting in his way, I’ll have security drag you outside and beat some sense into you. Now, get out!”
Two security guards stepped forward. They grabbed me by the hair and roughly pulled me toward the door.
My scalp hurt badly from the pulling, and my clothes were wrinkled.
The front desk clerk’s shouts trailed behind me.
“Next time, stay in a motel. People like you can’t afford to travel on a holiday.”
I looked at the hotel’s grand entrance. Instead of shouting, I let out a quiet, exasperated laugh.
The heir to Grandview Group, huh?
They probably did not know that their lofty heir was right in front of them, and that he was being humiliated by their staff.
Since they refused to serve guests decently, only catered to people with status, and did not think twice about hurting and humiliating their other customers, this hotel might as well shut down.
