> seems there are quite a few people who have unresolved anger. Although I think the [hotel.com](http://hotel.com) person wasn’t in the right, please dont start getting angry at all the other people (receptionists, call center, telesales…and all the other people on the other side of the phone). I used to be a receptionist for a while, and alot of people blame me and got angry at me, when I are just trying to do my job. One lady yelled at me, because I sent her through to a person who wasn’t there. There were over a 1000 people working there, how am I supposed to keep records of where everybody is. Then of course I am now p\*\*\*ed off, so the next person who calls gets it. Its not an easy job. And on top of that, we have to be all nice about it. You guys get to swear at us, and all we can do is: Yes sir, thank you sir, please hold!

Well regardless of her being rude or not. The chick needs a baseball bat upside her head for charging me anyhow to get her commisision.

If she wasnt such a greedy A-hole then I wouldnt have had to go through this whole friggin thing.

And about the whole call center thing. Wtat happened to the days when you could book a hotel room with that hotel? So you can talk to someone local about area attractions if there is shuttle transportation to local sites and whatnot.

I tried to contact this hotel directly the only number they list in the phonebook, information and online is the [hotels.com](http://hotels.com) call center.

But you are right. I have all kinds of unresolved anger problems :skull:

Hmm… i just had a thought. Maybe I can still get them to refund my money of I keep bothering them. and actually make money off them bastards… :devious:
