This will Mess With Your Head.
3 MEN GO INTO A HOTEL. THE MAN BEHIND THE DESK SAID THE ROOM IS £30, SO EACH MAN PAID £10 AND WENT TO THE ROOM.
A WHILE LATER THE MAN BEHIND THE DESK REALISED THE ROOM WAS ONLY £25, SO HE SENT THE BELLBOY TO THE 3 GUYS' ROOM WITH £5.
ON THE WAY, THE BELLBOY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO SPLIT £5 EVENLY BETWEEN 3 MEN, SO HE GAVE EACH MAN A £1 AND KEPT THE OTHER £2 FOR HIMSELF.
THIS MEANT THAT THE 3 MEN EACH PAID £9 FOR THE ROOM, WHICH IS A TOTAL OF £27, ADD THE £2 THAT THE BELLBOY KEPT = £29.
WHERE IS THE OTHER POUND? |

They paid 9 pounds each, which is 27 (25 the room and 2 that the boy got for himself as a tip) AND adding the 3 pounds that they got back makes 30 pounds, there is no f#ckin' reason to add 2 pounds to the 27 they've paid.
So that is the answer.  |

The three gay men planning a weekend of bizarre sex in a cheap hotel actually paid £9 each after their refund making £27.
The jealous bellboy stole the other £2 which is why the confused man behind the desk of the sleazy hotel only got £25 for the room. Mind you, he did get to watch the three queers on CCTV so he was quite happy…  |

Actually, the 'Bell-Boy' is a sneaky little thief and should be fired immediately, I wonder if karmic has the phone number of the Hotel in question (I assume it is in the TRNC) ?, I think the management should be informed.
As for the three 'Gentlemen' suffering the indignity of being observed by the receptionist, THEY should be compensated for invasion/breach of privacy and the receptionist should also be dismissed.
Thinking about it, the Hotel should be closed down for such unacceptable practices, it is possible that ALL the rooms are targeted (with CCTV) and one can only imagine what kind of use is made of the footage obtained.
Small wonder that the TRNC is frowned upon by so many other nations of the world if the above is an example of how they conduct their business, regardless of the fact that they may be struggling to survive through lack of patronage in the 'Tourist Industry'.
Perhaps the incident above may serve to shed some light as to the reasons why.
Absolutely shocking behaviour all round........................In my humble opinion.
As to the 'Invasion' of privacy, I think there has been quite enough 'Invading' in the Northern area of our Island. |
