Sunday August 3 SGT+ Surprise meeting.

Post by Purpura » Mon Aug 04, 2008 1:45 am

I was greeting folks outside Plaza Inn today, and a guest hands me a dime just because I was opening the door for people to come in...

Then later after the sun went down, as I was still greeting, Glendalais comes up and tells me he wants to report a Stupid Guest Trick. Then I told him about the one that had happened a half an hour earlier. :D:

I just took it... Said I'd have to open the door 9 more times for him and then I'd get a dollar out of the man... :D:

The guest was just being silly. One of his friends commented."What did you do that for?" He just said, "Gave it to her cause she was opening the door..."

In that case, you should have looked at the dime, then said:

OH MY GOSH, ITS A RARE DIME. I have been looking for this one for my collection for YEARS, its worth about $3,000.00. Thank you sooooo much!!

Then put it in your pocket, and stand there patting the pocket and SMILE!!!

(hehehehehehehe)

*Laughter in your direction* Any bit of extra money is good, when I am the only one with a paycheck... even a dime. I was smiling.
