Priced Like Gold: A Million for a Slice of Luxury
While inspecting the hotel owned by my family, I start to feel hungry after ordering some food at the hotel restaurant. Before the food is served, I munch on a small piece of bread roll for the time being.
Suddenly, the lobby manager comes up to me and hands me a piece of paper.
"Hello, sir. We do not allow outside food here. It has been 8 minutes and 30 seconds since you entered our restaurant. The total cost of your meal is 1,500 dollars. You'll be fined 1.28 million dollars."
I am briefly stunned as I look at the piece of paper detailing the amount I should pay. Then, I take a picture of the piece of paper and send it to the group chat that has all the members of the board of directors. I tag my elder sister in the next message I send.
"I've received a fine at the hotel owned by my family. Is this how you've increased the hotel's revenue?"
