Two concierges at a swanky New York City hotel have a blog... Telling about all the frustrating requests they get!
Sometimes, it's pretty funny...
Here are a couple I liked...
GUEST: We want to have Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Can you make us a reservation?
CONCIERGE: They don’t actually serve breakfast.
(Guest rolls eyes)
GUEST: Well, brunch then.
(In case you're not familiar, "Tiffany's" is an upscale jewelry store...! They don't actually serve breakfast - or brunch, for that matter! :) Apparently in the movie, Audrey Hepburn walks past the jewelry store window while eating donuts... That's where the name comes from...)
Here's another (remember, this is New York City)...
GUEST: We wanna do 2 things today: Eiffel Tower, and 9/11.
(That's gonna be a long walk!)
You can see their blog here...

Also, here's an article (with a few more selected quotes)...

Best wishes! :)
