The bar and grill at the pool area
“Excuse me, sir. You can’t have food in the pool area.” — What do you mean, I can’t have food here? What are the tables for? “They’re for the bar and grill customers.” — But I’m a guest here. “Yes, sir. But guests aren’t allowed to bring outside food to the hotel.” — It’s just…

A covert truth (pt. 1)

Travel and moving checklist
Sent an email to cancel my lease —> no reply for three days and counting. Don’t have a specific day to leave my old apartment, even though the new lease starts the 1st of next month. Property management groups are the devil (I said that before, right?) Need to do laundry and have 100% of…

The sound of silence (pt.1)
In a medical waiting room, a man walks up to the front desk to speak with the receptionist. “Greetings, I have an appointment now at 11am.” – Name? “Mauro” — Full name, sir “Mauro Bever” “Mr. Bever, this way. I understand this is your first appointment with us. Fill out the form with all your…
