We ask this because we want to know if you're cancelling becuase you hate our hotel, or found a better rate somewhere else or whatever...Anyways, so I ask and she goes..."His death...my husband passed away..."

And then foot inserted in mouth. I mean, I know I wasn't going to know what she was going to say but I felt terrible...All I could manage to say was I'm so sorry to hear that. And promptly cancelled her reservation.
Did that job require you to be psychic? Because I don't see how you could have known that.
