Our housekeeper just brought me a suitcase that was left in room 3. The guests were walk-ins last night, so I pulled the registration card to get a phone number for them.
It's a fake phone number. The area code does not exist. And it's very clearly written, so there is no doubt.
Not only that, but this guest doesn't have a credit card (or at least that's what he claimed when he checked in) so I'm going to need cash in hand before I ship the suitcase back to him.
Anyone know the appropriate amount of time I need to keep this suitcase kicking around before I can toss it? Some questions Miss Manners just doesn't address.
A fake number? Why? Are they fugitives?
ReplyDeleteI'd search the luggage for an address (and to make sure there's nothing suspicious), then wait for them to call -- two weeks, max.
I've given up trying to figure out why guests do the things they do. I checked the outside of the luggage; I think Michael checked the inside.

ReplyDeleteI voted for 65 seconds, but was voted down. :)
Oddly enough, the guests coughed up a credit card when it came time to pay for shipping their luggage back home.
