I am just so over these people who NEED to cause some kind of scene, have some kind of special need, and in general just need to be the center of attention. I really thought DH was going to throw a fork at her this morning.
She of course chose to read NONE of her confirmation so prior to arrival had to call to be sure we would take her child (I should have shut it down right there and said NO), and to ask for special tour arrangements (the specifics of which she of course also didn't read and acted so surprised she needed cash to pay when I went over it all AGAIN at check in).
This morning I say hello and get "Do you have a newspaper from TODAY?" (No, our local paper is an evening edition so that's yesterdays...we do have free wifi and a guest computer if there's something you need right this second). Followed by "What's for breakfast?" I HATE this question...sit down and you'll see what's for breakfast. But I answered "French toast and sausage" and she walked away. Bring the plates out..."I don't eat meat, can I have one without meat?" as I'm standing there. I ask DH for a little plate and remove the sausage for her and then thank God I couldn't see it but DH said she made a face as if I'd just murdered her child and just sat pushing the food around...he says "Do you need a plate that didn't have sausage on it? Because if we'd known ahead of time we'd have been happy to make special arrangements for you." So I bring back a second plate that's never beyond tainted with pork. She just sat there pushing everything around.
Beyond pita...she is the whole A. I reprinted her email confirmation and have attached it to her invoice.
