TROPHY CASE

As a Brit living in America, I get called posh all the time. Even more so when they hear my accent, alongside my favorite munchies... Olive Oil, Balsamic Vinegar with some fresh home made bread... <3 by Dracomantisin trees

I hear what you say about news anchors... Most news folk in the UK talk in something called the 'BBC Accent', since the UK has SUCH a vast array of accents, they needed to make one that could be understood by everyone, but not sound as posh as the queen lol.

I know nothing of Australia other than lots of Brits come to visit and backpack around... I opted for NYC and now I live here lol.

Can't you just rock into the vast expanse of space and be alone like Crcodile Dundee? lol

They can request, I have no problem with guests requesting, we do free upgrades and higher floors for guests celebrating birthdays or special occasions.

DEMANDING to be on a high floor, and saying you will complain and refuse to check in if your DEMANDS are not met, is NOT a request... Its a demand, for something you have no right to get... It means your not trying your luck, you are just a cunt.

And its not my job because I'm a concierge, and I'm bitching because it foreshadows how stupidly demanding they will be upon arrival.

Fair point on r/funny, but I could think of no other subreddit it belonged in.

Not quite, I guess that post does lack contex... We are quite a expensive hotel a few blocks away from Times Square. They booked a Queen room (Cheapest room, no guarantee of a high floor or a view), with a huge discount for business travel (they paid 184, if they wanted to book it like a tourist, it would cost nearly $600).

We offer rooms called 'Grand View', which ARE on a high floor, and have a nice view...

You can't pay for the cheapest room, and then DEMAND special treatment to be booked into a higher room, thats just a dick move.

[–]Dracomantis[S] 2 points3 points ago

I assume you make similar demands?

They paid for a Queen room, our cheapest rooms which give no guarantee of floor level or anything other, than a Queen room....

We offer, as do most hotels in NYC, 'Grand View' rooms, which come with a guaranteed high floor and a beautiful view...

If they wanted a high floor, they could have easily paid for it, but they chose not to, they chose to pay for a cheaper room (At a HUGELY discounted rate thanks to their corporate rate) and then just DEMAND special treatment, these kind of people can go fuck themselves...

Now, as for this comment:

You are being paid to book them a room, stop being a child and do your job.

No, that's not my job, and you clearly have no clue what your talking about, so kindly fuck off before you get all high and mighty, asshole.

edit: spelling

They are incredibly demanding, always assume you are sexist and/or trying to sleep with them, look down on everyone... Just a hell to deal with when compared to men in the same level jobs, granted you get asshole men too, but not nearly as many, the vast majority of them just want to get into a room, maybe a table for dinner. Where as the women make my workload go from about 2 hours to 6hrs trying to make sure they are happy. Half a shift spent on one bitch in a suit is not ok lol.

When I'm high at home, I like to sit down to take a piss... I've sat there for far to long before thinking I was still pissing because I could 'feel' it...

I always wondered if it was just me or that happens to all guys.. at least, all non-cut guys.

Thats what makes it so funny... I'm from Grimsby, while we don't have a strong accent like a major city, we are, without a doubt, 'northern'... Which to explain to Americans, is like what it means to be from the South... All English southners assume I am there to rob something and stab their gran, Same way American non-from-the-south-people assume they are there to marry their cousins and shoot aarraaabbss.

But yeah, I gave up explaining that my accent is in no way posh and just tell people my farther is a Baron, most people buy it without question.

I love me some Dre... Which catches most people off guard (Brit, living in America... Most people assume I listen the recordings of the Queens Christmas Speech or some shit.)

But yeah, DRE and Snoop are perfect for any smoke sesh.

Came to say it looked like a little guy with no arms or legs... or eyes...

I think my mental condition is less stable than you two.

The hardest part is hiding it...

I work as a concierge in a fancy hotel in NYC, deal with mostly tourists and traveling businessmen (And businesswomen to be fair... who, by the way, are fucking disgusting, we ALWAYS have issues with them...), now I have maybe 2 hours of work to do in all my 8 hour shift...

The down side, I have to stand for those whole 8 hours, so being high is out of the question, tried it, it just feels like your stood there watching everything go by so slowly... Also, understanding broken english from tourists while high and not laughing is physically impossible.

I do, however, get high in the locker room when I clock off, then get to walk though times square at night and look at all the lights... Every job has its perks!

1 Guy takes on 7 Gang members by scaryblackguyin videos

[–]Dracomantis 24 points25 points ago

This, 7 street assholes and one guy who knew what he was doing. Had the weapon, stood his ground, beat down which ever one was closest, soon as he had done his damage and lost the bat he was out of their.

No bravado, no ego, just badassary!

While Omar is cool and all, riding shotgun with a shotgun is a reference to a ludacris tack.
