Kinda funny, now. Not so much at the time.
Had a date at 7 with a familiar fellow, and was waiting at the hotel that I’d booked for him when I get a text. A few more typos than usual, but I think nothing of it. Says he’s been out on the boat, he'd lost track of time, etc...he will be late. No worries, I am chilling in the jacuzzi. 3 hours later, after my texts asking for an eta remain unanswered, I am gathering my stuff to leave for home, and cranky about paying for a hotel I apparently did not need.
Having one of those rare hotel windows that open a bit, i suddenly hear a bellowing from outside, repeating something, can’t hear what exactly. I am the curious sort, and couldn’t see from the window, so I saunter down the hall and outside to see that it’s my date, drunk as hell, standing in his boat, and yelling my name.
His buddy (too drunk to have been driving) is in the truck, while Captain Sh*thead is shirtless, holding a beer, and standing on the boat, with his arms outstretched, yelling my name. At the top of his lungs. JAAAAAAAAAANE. HEY JAAAAAAAAANE. Amazingly, no one else seems to have noticed.
He is completely unaware that this may cause me...difficulties.
Also unaware that bringing a friend is pants-on-head stupid.
Upon seeing me, he loudly declares that I am looking “FIIIIIINE AS HEYALLL GIRL!”
I fly over there, tell him to SHUT THE HELL up...thank god no one else seemed to even be interested, lot was quiet aside from these winners.
I was furious, for many reasons. They find this *hilarious*.
I told them to listen carefully and I’d make sure they didn’t get what they deserved.
I ordered buddy to move over, got date out of the boat and in the truck, and drove the truck and trailer to the pilot and parked it. Took the keys.
Called a cab and put them in it, gave the driver the keys and told him to return them when he took them home (luckily I knew his address).
Never heard from him again, and never did get paid. Ate the cost of the hotel and decided to tell myself that $120 was a fair price to pay to offload a moron from my roster.
