'I told you to give me a different room': Front desk worker maliciously complies with rude guest's room request


Traveling can take its toll on the senses. After twelve hours cramped into a flying tube net to a snoring odorant stranger, you arrive at your hotel only to discover that you've been booked into a room next to a family of unruly children whose shouting and banging on the shared wall threatens to sever your last thread of sanity. To make matters worse, you're right across the hall from the ice and vending machines, and each time either is dispensed, it's as if each cube of ice, each soda, is dropping directly into your brain. It's enough to make even the most reasonable of us unreasonable and the unreasonable—well, more unreasonable still. 

Front desk workers have long had to endure the meltdowns of weary travelers who are barely hanging on to reality, and they've seen behavior that would make the tantrum-throwers mother's blush.

This worker shared how they maliciously complied with a rude guest's aggressive demand that they be changed into a new room… by placing them into the one directly beneath it instead.

Read on to see their account of events as they originally shared it with Reddit's r/talesfromthefrontdesk subreddit, along with reader's reactions below.
