Service with a Smile
A man wrote a letter to a small hotel in a Midwest town he planned
to visit on his vacation. He wrote:
I would very much like to bring my dog with me. He is well-groomed
and very well behaved. Would you be willing to permit me to keep him in my room
with me at night?
An immediate reply came from the hotel owner, who said, I've been
operating this hotel for many years. In all that time, I've never had a dog steal towels, bedclothes or silverware or pictures off the walls.
I've never had to evict a dog in the middle of the night for being
drunk and disorderly. And I've never had a dog run out on a hotel bill. Yes,
indeed, your dog is welcome at my hotel. And, if your dog will vouch for you, you're welcome to stay here, too.
