An old lady decided to give herself a big treat for her 85th birthday by staying overnight in an expensive hotel.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When she checked out next morning, the desk clerk handed her a bill for $450.\u00a0She exploded and demanded to know why the charge was so high.\u00a0 It’s a nice hotel but the rooms certainly aren’t worth $450 for just an overnight stay!\u00a0 I didn’t even have breakfast.”<\/p>\n

The clerk told her that $450 is the ’standard rate,’ so she insisted on speaking to the manager.<\/p>\n

The manager appeared and, forewarned by the desk clerk, informed the woman:
\n”This hotel has an Olympic-sized pool and a huge conference center which are available for use.”<\/p>\n

”But I didn’t use them,” she said.
\n”Well, they are here, and you could have,” explained the manager.<\/p>\n

He went on to explain that she could also have seen one of the in-hotel shows for which the hotel is famous.
\n”We have the best entertainers from the world over performing here,” manager said.<\/p>\n

”But I didn’t go to any of those shows,” she said.<\/p>\n

”Well, we have them, and you could have,” the manager replied.<\/p>\n

No matter what amenity the manager mentioned, she replied,<\/p>\n

”But I didn’t use it!” and the manager countered with his standard response.<\/p>\n

After several minutes discussion, with the manager unmoved, she decided to pay; she wrote a check and gave it to him.<\/p>\n

The manager was surprised when he looked at the check.
\n”But madam, this check is for only $50.”<\/p>\n

”That’s correct. I charged you $400 for sleeping with me,” she replied.<\/p>\n

”But I didn’t!” exclaimed the very surprised manager.
\n”Well, too bad. I was here and you could have.”<\/p>\n

Don’t mess with Senior Citizens!<\/i><\/p>\n
