boo-boo
i blew it this time. i swear, i did. hintayin ko ang memo bukas. pero here's how it happened.

my boss, the president of the company, is expecting foreign guests, and asked me to inquire about hotel rates. i called up discovery, manila hotel, richmonde, and holiday inn and asked about: holiday rates, discounts, promos, and other pertinent chenelyn.

when i got what i needed, i emailed him. tapos tinawag nya ako.

him: what does "good for 1 - 2 persons" mean?
me: it means that rooms can accomodate up to two persons.
him: and the $100 charge is per person, or per room?
me: per room sir.
him: so it's just $50 per person?
me: yes sir.
him: are you sure?
me: yes sir.
him: call them again and clarify. last month i stayed at manila hotel blah blah blah and they just charged me blah blah blah.
me: ok i will.

being the good assistant that i am (naks), i called again to clarify. and i was right all along. the charge is per room, not per head. i called the other hotels and got the same answer.

i put the phone down and before turning around, i grumbled "sabi nang per room eh. ang kulit kasi ni sir eh." i turned around, and surprise!!! si sir nasa likod ko lang pala, listening to the conversation. aguy! gudlak na lang sa akin. *singhot*
