New Order

I booked a car and these were some of the questions that the person asked:

1. "You guys are a big company, right? I mean, you're not a mom & pop company?"
2. "How many cars do you have?"
3. "How many drivers do you have?"
4. "What color are your limos?"
5. "What color is the inside?"

There were other stupid comments and questions he made like, "What comes in your bars?" To which I replied, "Whiskey, Vodka..." He then told me to hold and asked the other people what kind of Vodka they wanted, because, "It's included." I was hoping they would've asked for some ridiculous vodka, so I could've told them that we are going to charge them for that. I wonder what makes him think that a complimentary bar in a limo would include any type of drinks they request, especially for $60 an hour.

So aside from those things, the questions he asked are pretty stupid as well. As if being a mom & pop limo company means that we can't afford nice cars. Or if that's not it, then it's stupid that he would only support big huge companies. What makes a difference on how many cars or drivers we have? We're provided the service he's requesting, the number of cars or drivers is irrevellant to anything. Besides, I just made up a huge amount of cars and drivers.

Asking the color of the limo is an alright question, so I'll let him go on that one. But the inside? Unless the car itself was outrageous, no limo company would make the inside hot pink, or purple, or any other stupid color. Everything would be just as you would expect it to be. This fucking idiot's investigative skills needs a kick to the head.

Oh, and before I sent him to our website to view the vehicles there, he asked if we were a "legit company." What type of answer was he expecting on that one? Even if we weren't, you think we'd tell him that? "You seem a decent fellow, so I'm going to let you in on a secret. We don't even have limos. When you order it, we just send you a picture."
