There was a situation where a guest came to the front desk with a small dog and said his dog was his 'emotional support llama'. The front desk staff had to hold back their laughter and gently explain that llamas are much bigger and that the hotel has a pet policy for dogs.
A regular guest who was always forgetful once left his keys at the front desk. When he came back to get them, he said he thought he left them in the 'fridge'. The front desk staff was really confused until they realized he was just having one of his forgetful moments. It was really funny and now whenever he comes, they always joke about the keys in the fridge.
I heard a story where a guest called the front desk at 3 am, asking for a wake - up call at 3:15 am. When the clerk asked why such a short notice, the guest said he just wanted to see if the wake - up call service really worked that fast. Another time, a couple came to check in but they had forgotten their reservation details. They started arguing with each other about whose fault it was while the front desk clerk was trying to find their booking based on their names. It was quite a chaotic but also funny scene.
Once, a guest came to the front desk and asked if the hotel had a pool on the roof. When the front desk clerk said no, the guest insisted that he saw it in the brochure. After some confusion, it turned out he was looking at a picture of the building next door's rooftop pool.
Sure. One time, a guest came to the front desk and asked for a wake - up call at 'the crack of dawn'. The front desk clerk, being a bit of a joker, said 'We can't guarantee the crack will be on time, but we'll do our best!' The guest burst out laughing.
One funny thing is when the TV in the hotel room has a mind of its own. I was trying to change the channel and it just kept switching back to a soap opera no matter what I did. Another is when you open the mini - bar and find the strangest items like pickled eggs or some really old - fashioned candies.
Well, sometimes you can find really cool artworks on the walls. I once stayed in a hotel where each room had a different local artist's painting. It was like having a mini art gallery in my room.
One funny thing is when the TV remote has some really strange buttons or doesn't work properly. I was in a hotel room once and the volume button on the remote would only go up, not down. So I had to keep unplugging the TV to turn it off and on again to adjust the volume.
One scary thing is when the staff behaves oddly. For example, if they keep staring at you in a creepy way or seem overly nervous. It gives you a really bad feeling right from the start.
Well, a lot of hotels have great art on display. You can walk around and admire the paintings or sculptures. For example, I once stayed at a hotel that had a collection of local artists' work. It was really fascinating to see the different styles and interpretations of the area's culture through art.
Well, front desk could be either. If it's in a fictional novel where there are made-up characters and events happening at the front desk, then it's fiction. But if it's in a factual account of a hotel's operations or a workplace study, it's nonfiction.
I don't think 'Front Desk' is a graphic novel. Usually, graphic novels have a lot of visual elements and a specific style of illustration, but it seems 'Front Desk' doesn't fit that description.
