Hotel Upgrade

A

Good afternoon. What can I do for you?

B

I’d like to check in please. I have a reservation under the name Anthony Roberts.

A

All right R.O.B.E.R.T.S...Oh Mr. Roberts we’ve been expecting you...and here is your key card to the presidential suite.

B

But there must be some mistake; my reservation was for a standard room.

A

Are you sure? Let me double check.

B

Yeah...Here, this is my confirmation number.

A

You’re right Mr. Roberts, there seems to be a mix up, unfortunately we’re over booked at the moment.

B

So...

A

Not to worry. We’re pleased to offer you a complimentary upgrade.

B

Presidential suite baby!...
