Had a call for a room earlier. Made a mistake in the booking, tried to correct it by calling guest on phone. Kept getting voicemail. Guest shows up at door while I'm checking in someone else. Hubs handles new arrival.
I come back from showing first guests to room, new guests are wandering around inn alone. I ask if they've been checked in? One guest says, 'No, the girl is turning down the beds.' Huh? WHAT girl? Go look for hubs who is stuck trying to print reg form. Dinner is burning. Hubs prints form, I turn off oven and go to check on hubs. He's there, guests are gone. I see guests in hallway looking at front door wanting to know if they can come and go that way (sign on that door refers guests to other door).
Hubs throws up hands and says, 'You get this one.' I get guest to sign form and give me cc and tell me what time they want to eat. Her. I have no idea WHERE her husband is. Hubs asks, 'Do you need help with your bags?' 'Oh yes!' Hubs says, 'I can help you right now.'Then I turn around and she's gone. Hubs shrugs his shoulders and goes to walk away. I show him the room keys and ask if he showed them the combo for the door? No. They kept wandering away. He takes keys and tracks them down in their room. I go back to burning dinner.
Hubs comes back and says, 'Good thing I helped her with that luggage, no way she could have gotten it in the house by herself.'
They would NOT stand still. She kept wandering off while I was running her card. Her husband was all over the place. They are out now. Dinner was saved. I'm tired just thinking about them! I should judge by clothing. The more 'trailing' the clothing is, the more absentminded the guest.
