Dear Lady at L’Hôtel…

I’m not sure whether or not a pack of wolves raised you, so I’ll try to avoid being judgmental and instead, explain a few things to you. I hope you find this helpful.

1. When you see another adult on the phone, refusing to make eye contact with you, that is not a sign that you should squat down to make eye contact for the sole purpose of interrupting her phone call.
2. If you forgot your room key, you should ask people who already know you to let you in to l’hôtel. You should NOT interrupt a complete stranger’s phone conversation to ask this. Especially if said stranger is doing her damnedest to avoid even looking at you.
3. If you’ve chosen to ignore the first two things, you definitely should not continue to talk to said stranger while she is clearly trying to continue her own phone call whilst helping you out.

Seriously, I realize that everyone needs a hand sometimes, and normally, I’m all over being a Good Samaritan. However, I was in the middle of a fucking phone call. I’d ducked my head to avoid being asked for help even. Rude on my part? Maybe. However, it was certainly more rude to interrupt a phone conversation. Even my children understand that you should wait until a phone call is over to bother someone.

So way to understand that your needs were more important than someone else’s and that your dumbassery gave you every right to interrupt another adult’s private phone conversation. Your parents should be very, very proud.

Unless, of course, you actually were raised by a pack of wolves. In that case, thanks for not eating my face off.

Sincerely,
The Bitch in the quirkyblogger.com Hat
