It is weird. If you look at some of the questions concerning tips, the waiters and waitress of the bunch usually write in that even the most rude, horrible service deserves a 10% tip. It's everywhere - people feeling getting money is a birthright instead of something you earn.
I don't know about you, but I have to work my asss off for my money, and no one gives me tips. My tip is I get to have a job tomorrow. So when I spend my money I expect the best service. I expect people to put in the same effort I put in at work. When it comes to eating out, it's a no-brainer. I will get what I want and I will get it in a timely manner. If they tell me it won't be burnt and it comes out burnt, it's going back. If they get pissy, it's a no brainer - no tip. I'm not going to argue with a waitress with an attitude. That goes for everyone in the service industry.
The cabin is a bit different - especially if you paid up front. I had the same thing happen - we specifically picked the cabin because it said it slept 7. We had 6. It really slept 2 comfortably. The girls got the bed, one girl got the couch, one guy got a cot (that gave him back pains), and we got the floor, sans blankets or pillows, for 3 days. It cause a real problem, because we didn't want to split equally, but no one could afford to pay more for the bed. When we called and complained, their attitude was "what are YOU going to do about it. Sue us." What could we do? We were f*cked.
Unfortunately, it seems like everyone believes it's their birthright to screw people out of their money with a minimum of effort.

Tell me about! Yes, some people don't have it as good as we do, like that one answer wrote, but if you pay for something, you're supposed to get quality service!!! I hate it when they think they shouldn't fix it. My parents worked in the restaurant business for several years and they know how to treat a customer right. So when we go out, if something isn't right, we call them on it politely. Most of the time the restaurant is cooperative, but still! And one time, I was at a grocery store buying some sodas for the household, which has many people in it, and the bagger girl put five two liter sodas in one bag! We always ask for paper-in-plastic to give it a good hold, but five sodas are too much! But try the bagging trick sometime! I feel for you! Just be kind and tell them about the problem, they need to know so they can fix it. Good luck!

There isn't any scripture that says most effective a hundred and forty four,000 can partake of the logos, real. But there ARE scriptures that say most effective the judges/kings can partake of them. Luke 22:19, 20 (learn 28-30). one million Cor. 6:two, three. The saints or judges are referred to as each "virgins" and "firstfruits" as good because the twelve tribes scattered overseas. two Cor. eleven:three, James one million:one million, two, 18, Romans eight:17, 23*, one million Cor. 15:23. The Bible suggests the quantity of firstfruits/virgins/judges is restricted to a hundred and forty four,000. Revelation 14:three, four. It is Jesus and the saints, now not Jewish boys, who're the firstfruits. These kings are NOT the one inheritance regardless that and don't seem to be even the one rulers. Psalms forty five:sixteen Faithful ones will rule on this planet as mere princes as a substitute of kings plus there are topics from sea to sea at the new earth. Psalms seventy two:one million-eight. In the religious experience of consuming and ingesting regardless that, ALL ought to devour. That refers to taking in teachings and fitting like Jesus. one million Cor. 10:20-22, one million Peter two:21, Heb. five:eight, nine. The heavenly ones are covenanted to quit their human lives, earthly relationships, even their names to be born once more as spirit sons of God in heaven. Debbie

One way to avoid this happening to you too often is to ask smart and many questions before you obligate yourself. Things like asking if smokers (I suppose that is what you meant unless you meant it smelled like a fire had burned in the place) have stayed there, are the furnishings in good repair and condition. Also, go by what others recommend who can tell you of where they have gone that was a good place to vacation or eat.

A lot of people around the world live in huts and shantys, and don't know where their next meal is going to come from. So be thankful that there was a roast chicken and a cabin at all.

Unfortunately, the sense of responsibility and accountability are just about gone from our society. I have had MANY of the same problems you describe ... with automobile dealerships not honoring their warranties, utilities overcharging, restaurants that bring the wrong (or incorrectly cooked) food, hotels that tell you it's "not their problem", etc., etc., etc. Maybe it's time we THANK businesses when we get "good" service and remind them that it's rare today .. it just might catch on !!!

People in society nowadays have no respect. This is a hard concept because we cannot change the way people are.

Prayer out of school. No prayer. No morals. No morals no guilt. No sense of pride. No service.
Its a chain reaction.
