I was staying at a nice resort hotel in Arizona on a short vacation. I had been out on the golf course playing a round of golf. When I got back into the room, I was feeling pretty hungry. I was meeting some friends for a late dinner around 8:30. I wanted a snack . I took a look at theroom service menu and called their number.
Woman: Room service. What would you like to order?
Jeff: Hi, I'm in room 1201 and I'd like an order of the calamari and a slice of cheesecake .
Woman: Do you want the calamari appetizer or the entree ?
Jeff: I'd like the appetizer.
Woman: Anything to drink ?
Jeff: A diet Coke. About how long will that take ?
Woman: It'll be about 30 minutes.
Jeff: Okay. Thanks.
There was a knock on my door about a half hour later.
Jeff: Who is it ?
Woman: Room service...Hi, where would you like me to put the tray?
Jeff: On the desk would be fine.
Woman: The total is $16.75.
Jeff: Oh, that's higher than I'd expected.
Woman: There's a 12% service charge for room service and there's also the usual food tax.
Jeff: Oh, I see. Can I charge it to the room ?
Woman: Sure. Just fill in the total here, write in your room number, and sign at the bottom.
Jeff: Okay, there you go. Thanks.
Woman: Thank you and have a nice day.
The calamari and the cheesecake really hit the spot .
