Don't Mess with Senior Citizens! Your daily chuckle
> The Hotel Bill
A friend emailed this to me this morning, got a good laugh from it and hope you do too.

>
> An elderly lady decided to give herself a big treat for her significant birthday by staying overnight in one of Chicago's most expensive hotels.
>
> When she checked out next morning, the desk clerk handed her a bill for $250.00.
>
> She exploded and demanded to know why the charge was so high. "It's a nice hotel but the rooms certainly aren't worth $250.00 for just an overnight stop without even breakfast."
>
> The clerk told her that $250.00 is the 'standard rate' so she insisted on speaking to the Manager.
>
> The Manager appeared and forewarned by the desk clerk announced: "the hotel has an Olympic-sized pool and a huge conference center which are available for use."
>
> 'But I didn't use them," she said.
>
> ''Well, they are here, and you could have," explained the Manager.
>
> He went on to explain that she could also have seen one of the in-hotel shows for which the hotel is famous. "We have the best entertainers from New York , Los Angeles , and Las Vegas performing here," the Manager said.
>
> "But I didn't go to any of those shows," she said.
>
> Well, we have them, and you could have," the Manager replied.
>
> No matter what amenity the Manager mentioned, she replied, "But I didn't use it!"
>
> The Manager was unmoved, so she decided to pay, wrote a check and gave it to the Manager.
>
> The Manager was surprised when he looked at the check. "But madam, this check is only made out for $50.00." '
>
> 'That's correct. I charged you $200.00 for sleeping with me," she replied.
>
> "But I didn't!" exclaims the very surprised Manager.
>
> "Well, too bad, I was here, and you could have."
>
> Don't mess with Senior Citizens
