Although I have before, I didn't with this guy. I just gave him the keys to one of the courtesy cars and gave him directions.

Yeah well, I make minimum wage no matter what. That includes every single holiday, I get no bonus pay, and I get no overtime or vacation days either. Ahhh, its good to be a city employee!

Did you give him the Ferrari or the Jaguar?



That is too funny that he was snooty about the hotel only being $69... I wonder what it's like to have so much money that you think anything under $200 isn't good enough.

I dont get much OT here right now. On the bright note I did get a second raise this yr. One when I was promoted and the second for a good review.

Haha! We have a 97 pontiac minivan (which he got) and a ~90 buick le sabre. As for having more money than they know what to do with, this guy was a chump compared to many others that I have dealt with, who were also kind to me. I have dealt with a guy that flew an 18 passenger, ~$20 million jet here from Chicago, spent nearly $4k on fuel, just to eat at Runza! The only passengers were him and his daughter (my God that better have been his daughter! She was my age, and HOT!) And he was such a nice guy that he gave me a private tour of his jet, and also tipped me $20 for the directions and hospitality.

On a side note, the hotel room is usually around $100 for a single bed here, but I have coupons that get the same room, but for $69. They give us these discount coupons to send out-of-town business their way, and I gladly help out friendly tourists. Fortunately, they were full-up tonight, so he had to stay at a $50 motel. Suck on that richy-rich!
