Well that was weird.

**BmillsSkier** · 01-23-2017, 08:34 AM

Checking into my hotel last night the lady gives me my keycard and room number. I take the elevator up and open the door and walk in - right into a room clearly occupied by some woman singing in the shower. I haven't turned tail and ran quicker than that since egging houses in middle school.

After telling the front desk what happened they apologized and reassigned my room.

So this morning I'm getting ready to walk out the door and in walks this guy with his bags in his hands. He just stares at me and I say "think they gave you the wrong room man, happened to me last night."

Then, this weirdo says to me "no, they gave me this room".

Dumbfounded, I tell him well guy, I spent the night in here, the same issue happened with me last night and I'm not packing my shit up now, so it sounds like you've got a conversation with the front desk. Here, let me show you to the elevators as I walked us both out the door.

He was completely quiet as we rode down and looked stunned that I kept walking out the door and not to the front desk with him. I think he really wanted that room. I called the hotel from the car and confirmed they got slingblade sorted out.

That was odd, But now I've got two comped breakfasts so there's that. Which is nice.

Was this a swingers hotel?

**BmillsSkier** · 01-23-2017, 08:51 AM

I'll check with my travel department but I don't think they added that feature at this particular Hampton. Yet.

**riser4** · 01-23-2017, 08:53 AM

Whole thing is sort of ewwww. I don't like hotels as it is. Other people did things in my room before I got there. And that Hampton's got issues apparently.

**billyk** · 01-23-2017, 08:58 AM

I haven't had it happen twice in one day like you, but I've had it happen a couple times on separate trips. Come into the room to find someone there one time, and someone's bags on the bed another time.

Hotels do all sorts of weird shit. I saw an article somewhat recently where some motel 6 or something had every single key card and lock programmed the same. Any keycard could open any room. Fucked up.

As a Lazy Person I can appreciate that. However, that's fucked up. Good reason to try a few random doors every time you stay somewhere.

she was hot, wet & naked and you ran?

**BmillsSkier** · 01-23-2017, 11:12 AM

I had no clue what she looked like.

I did have a vague idea of how the conversation might have gone if I stuck around though.

Spoiler: it's not at all like those 70s movies.

**Elkhound Odin** · 01-23-2017, 01:38 PM

This is why you always turn the deadbolt and secure the chain when you are in the room.

**riser4** · 01-23-2017, 02:13 PM

Good thing for everybody concerned that the gentleman from your 2nd encounter did not walk in on the lady in the shower. He might not have cut and run.

**BmillsSkier** · 01-23-2017, 02:51 PM

Hahaha. I should have sent him down to her room.

**Timberridge** · 01-23-2017, 02:59 PM

"Here, take this key card. Room 115. Listen for "Jesus, Take the Wheel." Open the door and sit on the edge of the bed. Clap slowly after she's done then ask her if she'd like a drink from the minibar."

I checked into the hard rock in vegas and when I got to my room the lights were all on in the room and the window was open with the wind blowing the curtains. I checked out the window for a body down below from the last gambler but never saw the splat.

In glenwood springs I had to double back to my room for some tools. A guy was in my room and told me he worked for my company. I told him clearly "that's a lie." He then told me he "was homeless and the hotel lent out occupied rooms to homeless people to shower in." As I reached for something to bash his head in, he attacked me and ran out of the parking lot. I'm not sure how he got in the room or knew slightly what to say. I changed hotels, I'm pretty sure that guy had done it many times.

I was helping my sister move so I walked into the rong apartment, freaked the couple couple out who was sitting there watching TV, they probably lock their doors now

Benny would disagree with you.

Think I mentioned it in the other thread; i had no clue what the song was but it sounded Country or western. I'd be useless.

In hindsight I too had other ideas of what was going on in there.

If I don't send the vouchers to Benny I might do just that.

Would make for some great conversation meeting with the buyers' counsel tomorrow as I slowly, but deliberately, pull piece after piece of pocket bacon out to eat at the board table.

SOP for me. Doesn't everyone? The results can be intriguing.

When I send these vouchers to Benny I'll add that in a note. Could work out for the guy.

I would buy whatever you were selling. That would be amazing. I might try that next time I go out of town for a sales meeting.

We're at a clients negotiating/completing the sale of their company.

And so far it's been the weirdest trip, that I figure a little pocket bacon negotiating tactic couldn't derail things any farther.
