We had been getting reports that the big white trucks had been slamming their doors into other cars. We couldn't prove who it was, as we have 3-4 groups here at any given time with big white work trucks. They are the kind with all the lock boxes on the back.
One of the groups comes to me the other night to tell me that their supervisor witnessed one of the trucks back into a car and drive off. He watched it to make sure it wasn't one of his guys.
After this, I told all the people with the trucks to stop parking in front of their rooms. We have a gravel lot they can park in and a larger lot that isn't as tight or as busy.
Needless to say the company we are sure is doing the damage threw a huge fit. They started with the "we have 10 rooms for 2 months" blah blah blah song and dance. They belly ached about having to carry their equipment to their rooms, how they don't like the other cars hitting their truck, so they shouldn't be allowed to park there either, and that this was ridiculous.
I had one man after he had been drinking come back to the desk to tell on all the people with big trucks still parked where we asked them not to, and how someone was cooking with a gas grill and it smelled like they were cooking meth. By the time he stopped telling me all about his job, what they did and left the desk I couldn't find anything wrong.
They are so spoiled to us having outside rooms that they can just pull up to. They also thought this meant they got a discount on their rooms. HA! Not happening. They are not even paying for their rooms, their company is. I'm sure their company would love for us to call and tell them about this. I mean you've been causing damaging to any car that is parked near you! They are out of here in a couple of weeks.
The other 3 companies that stay with us and use these kind of trucks have never had a complaint on them before. I'm talking stayed with us for years and never hit other cars. It is this new group causing us grief.
