| A Soap Story
> > The following letters are supposedly taken from an actual incident > between a hotel and one of its guest. > ------------------------------------------------------------------ > Dear Maid, > > Please do not leave any more of those little bars of soap in my bathroom > since I have brought my own bath-sized Dial. Please remove the six > unopened little bars from the shelf under the medicine chest and another > three in the shower soap dish. They are in my way. > Thank you, > S. Berman > ----------------------------------------------- > Dear Room 635, > > I am not your regular maid. She will be back tomorrow, Thursday, from her > day off. I took the 3 hotel soaps out of the shower soap > dish as you requested. The 6 bars on your shelf I took out of your way! > and put on top of your Kleenex dispenser in case you should change your > mind. This leaves only the 3 bars I left today which my instructions > from the management are to leave 3 soaps daily. I hope this > is satisfactory. > Kathy, Relief Maid > > > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > Dear Maid - I hope you are my regular maid. Apparently Kathy did not tell > you about my note to her concerning the little bars of soap. When I got > back to my room this evening, I found you had added 3 little Camays to the > shelf under my medicine cabinet. I am going to be here in the hotel for > two weeks and have brought my own bath-size Dial, so I won't need > those 6 little Camays, which are on the shelf. They are in my way > when shaving, brushing teeth, etc. > Please remove them. > S. Berman > ------------------------------------------- > Dear Mr. Berman, > > The assistant manager, Mr. Kensedder, informed me this morning that you > called him last evening and said you were unhappy with > your maid service. I have assigned a new girl to your room. I hope you > will accept my apologies for any past inconvenience. If you have any > future complaints, please contact me so I can give it my personal > attention. Call extension 1108 between 8AM and 5PM. > Thank you. > Elaine Carmen > Housekeeper > --------------------------------------------- > Dear Miss Carmen, > > It is impossible to contact you by phone since I leave the hotel for > business at 7:45 AM and don't get back before 5:30 or 6PM. That's > the reason I called Mr. Kensedder last night. You were already off duty. > I only asked Mr. Kensedder if he could do anything about > those little bars soap. > The new maid you assigned me must have thought I was a new check- in > today, since she left another 3 bars of hotel soap in my medicine > cabinet, along with her regular delivery of 3 bars on the bathroom shelf. > In just 5 days here I have accumulated 24 little bars of soap. Why are you > doing this to me ? > S. Berman > ------------------------------------------------ > Dear Mr. Berman, > > Your maid, Kathy, has been instructed to stop delivering soap to your room > and remove the extra soaps. If I can be of further assistance, please call > extension 1108 between 8 AM and 5PM. > Thank you, > Elaine Carmen, > Housekeeper > ------------------------------------------------- > Dear Mr. Kensedder, > > My bath-size Dial is missing. Every bar of soap was taken from my room, > including my own bath-size Dial. I came in late last night and > had to call the bellhop to bring me 4 little Cashmere Bouquets. > S. Berman > -------------------------------------------------- > Dear Mr. Berman, > > I have informed our housekeeper, Elaine Carmen, of your soap problem. > I cannot understand why there was no soap in your room > since our maids are instructed to leave 3 bars of soap each time they > service a room. The situation will be rectified immediately. > Please accept my apologies for the inconvenience. > Martin L. Kensedder > Assistant Manager > -------------------------------------------------- > Dear Mrs. Carmen, > > Who the he** left 54 little bars of Camay in my room? I came in last night > and found 54 little bars of soap. I don't want 54 little bars of Camay. > I want my one damn bar of bath-size Dial. Do you realize I have 54 bars of > soap in here ? All I want is my bath-size Dial. > Please give me back my bath! -size Dial. > S. Berman > --------------------------------------------------- > Dear Mr. Berman, > > You complained of too much soap in your room, so I had them removed. Then > you complained to Mr. Kensedder that all your soap was missing, so I > personally returned them. The 24 Camays which had been taken and the > 3 Camays you are supposed to receive daily. I don't know anything about > the 4 Cashmere Bouquets. Obviously your maid, Kathy, did not know > I had returned your soaps, so she also brought 24 Camays plus the > 3 daily Camays. I don't know where you got the idea this hotel issues > bath-size Dial. I was able to locate some bath-size Ivory which I left > in your room. > Elaine Carmen > Housekeeper > ---------------------------------------------------- > Dear Mrs. Carmen, > > Just a short note to bring you up-to-date on my latest soap inventory. > As of today I possess : > On the shelf under the medicine cabinet -18 Camay in 4 stacks of 4 and 1 > stack of 2. > On the Kleenex dispenser - 11 Camay in 2 stacks of 4 and 1 stack of 3. > On the bedroom dresser - 1 stack of 3 Cashmere Bouquet, 1 stack of 4 > hotel-size Ivory, and 8 Camay in 2 stacks of 4. > Inside the medicine cabinet - 14 Camay in 3 stacks of 4 and 1 stack of 2. > In the shower soap dish - 6 Camay, very moist. On the northeast corner of > the tub - 1 Cashmere Bouquet, slightly used. > On the northwest corner of the tub - 6 Camays in 2 stacks of 3. > > Please ask Kathy when she services my room to make sure the stacks are > neatly piled and dusted. Also, please advise her that > stacks of more than 4 have a tendency to tip. May I suggest that my > bedroom window sill is not in use and will make an excellent spot for > future soap deliveries. One more item, I have purchased another bar > of bath-size Dial which I am keeping in the hotel vault in order to > avoid further misunderstandings. > S. Berman
