9:30 I love that the Manager was shocked that the employee stood up for themselves. It's a good lesson on how you shouldn't throw someone under the bus if you're not willing to go down with them.
The manager has absolutely no excuse on that last one. Just imagine being that guest that had paid for a suite, possibly with multiple other friends and family members, and being told by the manager that you'd have to move into a room way smaller than the one you paid for because some spoiled brat decided that he's like to sit in your room. Yáll should've gotten security to kick that guy out of the suite and perhaps even call the police for tresspassing, and then ban that brat from your hotel. And that pating guest has all the right to sue this hotel as well.
I understand the frustration and I’d be upset if someone didn’t get out of my reserved room either. The last example was great at explaining the decision making behind it. How can we make this work while preventing escalation? (Front desk > manager > GM > HQ > PR) What level of severity is this? (Life and death, complaints, spilled milk.) If this is a common situation and not an emergency, it would not be the best use of law enforcement’s time to visit hotels frequently to remove uncooperative guests.
Also, if internal security were to kick someone out of their room (and an elite member), the likely outcome is making a scene at the hotel, the outraged elite member would continue to escalate their to HQ, then PR will need to make a statement and potentially provide some compensation for the unfavorable experience. Not the best outcome. This is why the GM opted for the solution in the example.
I have had all of these happen to me in my time as a hotel employee. Except when someone put food in the safe they did not tell anyone and let it go bad until they left.
I think in “The Upgrade” we see the only clever karen. She is discreet enough about the entitlement to make sure she doesn’t annoy any employee too much with it, and pushes everything single button the right way to make sure that she’s getting what she wants and get away scot free.
The only problem is that if you put the blame on the front desk manager (publicly), the front desk worker will eventually pay for it. One way or another. Egos are easy to bruise.
I love your skits! You are such a good actress:) PS I want to see a follow-up video on how the 'manager' handled downgrading the client. Should be interesting!
It's nice to have them in the proper order. I enjoy these skits when they pop up in my shorts, but i never get them in order! i'm glad there are these compilations!
If you want more material, I have one from me where I went to meet family at a hotel in a local city.... yeah I went to the wrong hotel.... it wasn't even the same chain...(I was sure my family said they booked at this hotel) I didn't make a scene even when they were having trouble finding me on the system. Once I found out I apologised so many times while laughing. I had a chuckle at the reception of the correct hotel. My family never let me forget that one. 😂
Do hotels have the ability to cut water and electricity on specific rooms? Don't call them, they'll call you for room transfer. Guests doesn't want nonfunctional rooms. 😆😆😆😆😆
one of my things about my current job is we really don't serve the public, but sometimes we come into contact with them and I'm free to be as rude as I want with no consequences. It's the dream.
She is a very good actor, tone of voice and facial expressions are excellent. Also attractive face and imaginative personality need to take talent too next level e.g t.v shows!
HE LOCKED HIS BURGER IN THE SAFE! HAHAHAHAHAHA! I'm sorry I used to work property management for vacation rentals and I thought I was alone in this, I had someone do the same damn thing, only it was a frozen pot pie and an eldery woman with dementia! We had to have the fire department break open the safe because she tried bashing it open with the plunger handle and broke the damn keypad! It gets better! turns out her adult son was a diabetic and she also put his insulin in the safe earlier, thinking it was the fridge! This shit really DOES happen! Bwahahaha!
That just reminded me of an infamous story in germany. So basically on his way home someone spotted a microwave at the side of the road and put it in his trunk since he thought "hey even if it is broken i am handy I can probably repair it". A few hours later he got a visit from the police. Turns out this was not a microwave, it was a radar trap with camera to catch people speeding, and it had a GPS in case someone would steal it. Dude if you can´t tell apart a radar trap from a microwave I kinda doubt you could repair a microwave.

The "I was here first" people annoy the hell out of me. Get them all the time in food service. I've been on 45 minute cook times and informed a walk-in that their food would be almost an hour. Dealt with the anger, got their order, then almost immediately had a carry-out walk in. Give the carry-out their food and turn around to be immediately confronted with "How come they got their food right away? I was here first"
Jessica I am glad to say that I have never been one of these super elite, and as far as I know I have never caused any problem like these and hope that I never do.
The one thing I have learnt is always, always have physical evidence of things. If a client calls you, send them a follow-up email outlining the conversation you had with them. So, in this case, have the elite member sign a contract saying they would move in 2 days, with the manager and the employee as witness. Done! Physical evidence
9:44 Another German saying: If you make a really big mistake, we say "scheiße bauen" (literally "building sh*t") In this case, we would extend that: sometimes you have to eat the sh*t you build. I think that fits here.
Did he bring one from home? Yeah no? Is it yes he did or is it no he didn't? This is such precise and concise language I don't know how we ever got along without this until the last 5 years or so.
I have a dollar that says the manager will tell the downgraded guest they had to take a suite out of service due to flooding or something. Meanwhile, she’ll be wondering if she can sell her children if it meant that a suite guest was a no-show.
As a "super elite high status member" of a hotel chain you still need to respect what the team members can and can't do. Besides, do you really want your profile (discussed superbly by Jess in a separate video) to show that you're an entitled brat?
Great skit! Could you add different customer accents (eg Texas, Bronx, French, British, Aussie, Kiwi, etc). It would be hilarious. Get more wigs and fake mustaches and beards.
There should be a Three Strikes rule in hospitality... prospective guest cops an attitude 3 times = reservation (if any) canceled and the guest is told to go elsewhere. Nobody gets paid enough to deal with entitlement. Also, I sincerely hope that the Manager in the last skit was fired and blacklisted from the industry... throwing the desk agent under the bus for a decision *she* made is a reprehensible attempt to cover her ass.
If I were the downgraded guest in that last skit, I would be more than willing to be the one to personally remove Ms. Clark from the suite that I had reserved.
Regarding the skit where the woman refused to leave her upgraded room after 2 nights (as she promised) for a regular room; couldn't the hotel at least take away the woman's "super elite status" after she finally leaves the hotel on the 5th day? She doesn't deserve to keep it, as she technically broke the contract.
I don’t stay in hotels often, I am not a highly super rewards member. But I know exactly how hotels system works. 😂😂😂😂 call me crazy, but why are so many just entitled?? I always prefer to give less problems to the hotel staff and still be courteous.
Manager needs to be fired. Guests booking should've been changed to 2 separate bookings to reflect the room change, and guest should sign a copy to show she accepts the terms and understands she WILL be moving rooms. As she'd then be breaking the terms she agreed to and signed to accept, she can now be trespassed. Problem solved...

I'm gonna audiorecord the manager for breaking policy.
It's Cover Your Ass man!
Maybe should have called a higher up for the irregularities.
Well said.
Always remember to include "please send me a text and/or e-mail with that".
“I don’t get paid enough.” 🤦🏼♀️ Truer words have never been spoken about dealing with the public.
That first skit had such an obvious ending, and yet it was so hilarious to hear it anyway.
Right? The second she said the rooms don't have microwaves I knew exactly what he did. Lol
2:47 "We were here first" - "No, you were not. He booked the room three months ago, so you are three months later than him."
3:03 I'm so happy she included this skit with Rebecca!!
Me too 😊I was not expecting that

Charge her suite price for the nights that she's staying after the agreed upon first two days.

🤣🤣🤣 the microwave incident also happened in the last hotel I worked it was hilarious but the guest was nice so I was pleased to help him.
Have I probably already seen alll of these skits? Yes.
Am I going to watch this entire video anyway. Also Yes.
A TRUE FAN!!!

Get the manager to put the suite upgrade in writing.
Exactly
3:30 my folks leave around 5 am to drive 6 hours to go to Georgia. We stop for lunch and view the pier before going to check in
Love your videos💕
Aaa yes, a microwave..
2:50 Yep, brilliant idea! Only a genius could come up with that 🤣
I hope that downgrade was a comped room.
I really enjoy your videos. They are awesome!

Need a video of when that Manager down grades a reservation
Im just binge watching all of these
4:06 people forget that they aren’t the main character and other people are entitled to normal things too
Wow I have never been this early and I love ur vids ❤
Jessica I am glad to say that I have never been one of these super elite, and as far as I know I have never caused any problem like these and hope that I never do.
Hey, Jess! Why don't you make a skit about downgrading from a suite to a standard room?
I hope that burger was in a "microwave safe" container when he tried to heat it.
😆😆😆😆😆
Well played
Right now I hate U in Mrs Clark Rolle 😂😂😂 i had a guest like this 😂
Wonder could they revolt someone's membership if they pull stunts like that?

Jessica How do you do your eye makeup please???!
At the end of “the upgrade” can you make a vid on guest reaction? 😊
Last one....

It's disappointing that corporate wouldn't have your back in that last one.
Surprise Miss Rogers Cameo!
Should do one on tipping the housekeepers.
Microwave 😅
Not he maneger just eating at 5:44
discovered your channel recently. are all the skits based on true happenings? 😂
the way you always have to apologise for things that aren't your fault
Should've made manager do the upgrade part
Plus that guest should be banned permanently from the whole hotel chain
My interest piquing when I heard Rebecca Rodgers-
Plz make a video where the manager tells the guest about their downgrade

I love being Early 🥳 (the microwave)
I have a dream.
Blank dream.....
Let me try again?
Hard work?
Agree
They should knock on her door at 7am and tell her to leave
How would you choose who didnt get an upgrade?
If I were the downgraded guest in that last skit, I would be more than willing to be the one to personally remove Ms. Clark from the suite that I had reserved.
The person who doesn't get the suite they paid for should get a full refund and keep they're booking
7:07 in Germany we would say "Your word in God's ear"
Rebecca!! 😊
These free upgrades for elite members just cause more problems. Want a suite? Book and pay for one!
Regarding the skit where the woman refused to leave her upgraded room after 2 nights (as she promised) for a regular room; couldn't the hotel at least take away the woman's "super elite status" after she finally leaves the hotel on the 5th day?

Early 🙈
Wait would the guest who was downgraded still have to pay the full price of the suite or would they be refunded the difference?

This isn't new. I like it its definitely not new.
“Staying with us for five nights” FNAF reference???
Okay but why is there a safe in the hotel room and not a microwave?

Hi
2:54
Ummm weren’t you JUST complaining about that being a thing?
if i booked a suite and got downgraded im asking for free unlimited movie rentals and to not charge me for the mini bar snacks
It still surprises me how some people act
Ok for the upgrade part, y can't they use the CCTV to prove their part?
