Ugh almost made a new alias "highly annoyed vidmaster7* just for this one.
Just checked in a top tier guest they went to their room and found someone in it. I'm sold out so I have to send them to another hotel and pay for their stay refund their stay here and figure out WHO TF is in that room because the room is under the name of the guy I just walked which makes no sense. Me and 2nd shift are gonna have it out.

Firstly, I'm sorry that you're having a bit of a tough time Vidmaster7. Hopefully, your most recent issue will be resolved soon. :-) Secondly, while I don't know much about the videogames that you often play, I would none the less like to hear your thoughts on a game that I play.
It's a boardgame called Disney Villainous and basically, you take on the role of a Disney villain (no duh, lol) and you have to complete a specific objective unique to the character you have picked with the other players (who also are playing as Disney villains) trying to complete their own objectives whilst stopping you from completing yours.
Here's the line up so far:
1. The Worst Takes it All (base game), with Ursula, Maleficent, Jafar, Captain Hook, Prince John and the Queen of Hearts.
2. Wicked To The Core (1st expansion), with Dr. Facilier, The Evil Queen and Hades.
3. Evil Comes Prepared (2nd expansion), with Ratigan, Scar and Yzma.
4. Perfectly Wretched (3rd expansion), with Pete (Steamboat Willie), Cruelle De Vil and Mother Gothel.
5. Despicable Plots (newest expansion), with Gaston, Lady Tremaine and the Horned King.
Sorry for the slight information overload, but what I'm trying to get at (and failing miserably) is who do you think is likely to be in the game with any/all future expansions (as one will be coming next year). Please note that Marvel Villainous is a separate entity.

Heh heh heh... the old “check into someone else’s room” scam. I’m always amazed how no one ever says “But you’re a monkey!”

I gotta tell you, there is shit people do that would never even occur to me. Like, I can't conceive of a multiverse reality where I'd think "Hey, I'm going to pretend to be someone else to steal their reservation because I'm that selfish of an ass."
Feh.
As the Refertron would say: "Stealing someone else's reservation? Oh, you better believe that's a paddlin."

Actually, I can think of a similar situation. It was a few years ago and my dad and I were picking up a takeaway that the whole family had ordered, but when we got there, apparently it had already been given over! Naturally, my dad was able to correct the situation (with the takeaway staff feeling very embarrassed) and we were able to grab our order and go.

Yeah that is a thing people do which is why we are suppose to check IDs. TBF the guy who stole the room had stayed with us before and enough times that 2nd shift recognized him just didn't remember his actual name.
Like Captain said I am sure that the old "I am John smith" does work a fair amount of time. Heck at that late of night their was a good chance the right person wasn't coming in at all. That happens so thy guy almost got a free room on the correct guest.
On the plus side we figured out who it was and charged him for it!

Vidmaster7 |

Yeah we have had that before.
Actually my favorite mix-up was on check out
Lady comes to the desk to check out (so unnecessary most of the time.)
She says checking out for room X and I want to pay cash. Say ok Room X for (a name) She says yelp! I cash her out. She leaves. Fine nothing to note. Turns out she payed for the wrong room. She both told me the wrong room number and confirmed the wrong room number and name when I asked her. So she paid fore someone else's stay and was still charged for her own.
We got it fixed although she deserved to pay for that after being that oblivious.

When my friend Mark Smith and his wife Trina got married, they checked into a hotel without making a reservation. Trina is about six years younger than Mark is, so she was 20 when they got married but still looked exactly as she did in her high school yearbooks. The hotel clerk refused to believe that "Mark and Trina SMITH" was their real last name and tried to accuse them of using an alias in order to just have sex. They had to drag out their marriage license from their luggage right there in the lobby in front of a line of people to prove they were in fact married.

To play devil's advocate, in some/most/possibly all states hotels (and sometimes the clerks) can be held criminally accountable if they suspect some kind of sex crime is being done on the property and they don't do anything to stop it. So maybe the clerk was concerned about some kind of statutory and/or trafficking situation.
On the other hand, some people are just a~&$#!*s.

So its turned on and I feel if it was out of order it would be turned off additionally someone just rode it down so no sign for higher floors my thought is they forgot to take the sign down for the first floor. I just am real hesitant to test the theory and the elevator kill someone. including me which is why I haven't tested it myself yet.
