Hotel bill

HybridTech

A husband and wife are traveling by car from Auckland to Christchurch. After over sixteen hours on the road, they're too tired to continue, and they decide to stop for a rest. They stop at a nice hotel in Wellington and take a room, but they only plan to sleep for four hours and then get back on the road. When they check out four hours later to get on the Cook Strait ferry, the receptionist hands them a bill for $350.

The man explodes and demands to know why the charge is so high. He tells the receptionist although it's a nice hotel; the rooms certainly aren't worth $350. When the receptionist tells him $350 is the standard rate, the man insists on speaking to the Manager.

The Manager appears, listens to the man, and then explains that the hotel has an Olympic-size pool and a huge conference centre that were available for the husband and wife to use. ' But we didn't use them," the man complains.

"Well, they are here, and you could have," explains the Manager. He goes on to explain they could have taken in one of the shows for which the hotel is famous. "The best entertainers from Auckland, Sydney and the U.S.A. perform here," the Manager says.

"But we didn't go to any of those shows," complains the man again.

"Well, we have them, and you could have", the Manager replies
No matter what facility the Manager mentions, the man replies, "But we didn't use it!"

The Manager is not moved, and eventually the man gives up and agrees to pay. He writes a cheque and gives it to the Manager.

The Manager is surprised when he looks at the cheque. But sir," he says, "This cheque is only made out for $100."

"That's right," says the man. "I charged you $250 for sleeping with my wife."

"But I didn't!" exclaims the Manager.

"Well," the man replies, "She was here, and you could have.".
