Some people just are never happy and love to complain

The following are purported to be actual complaints people have lodged. True or not ?? I don't know but I think they are humorous.

 

1. "I think it should be explained in the brochure that the local convenience store does not sell proper biscuits like custard creams or ginger nuts."

 

 

 

2. "It's lazy of the local shopkeepers in Puerto Vallarta to close in the afternoons. I often needed to buy things during 'siesta' time -- this should be banned."

 

 

 

3. "On my holiday to Goa in India, I was disgusted to find that almost every restaurant served curry. I don't like spicy food."

 

 

 

4. "We booked an excursion to a water park but no-one told us we had to bring our own swimsuits and towels. We assumed it would be included in the price."

 

 

 

5. "The beach was too sandy. We had to clean everything when we returned to our room."

 

 

 

6. "We found the sand was not like the sand in the brochure. Your brochure shows the sand as white but it was more yellow."

 

 

 

7. "They should not allow topless sunbathing on the beach. It was very distracting for my husband who just wanted to relax."

 

 

 

8. "No-one told us there would be fish in the water. The children were scared."

 

 

 

9. "Although the brochure said that there was a fully equipped kitchen, there was no egg-slicer in the drawers."

 

 

 

10. "We went on holiday to Spain and had a problem with the taxi drivers as they were all Spanish . "

 

 

 

11. "The roads were uneven and bumpy, so we could not read the local guide book during the bus ride to the resort. Because of this, we were unaware of many things that would have made our holiday more fun."

 

 

 

12. "It took us nine hours to fly home from Jamaica to England. It took the Americans only three hours to get home. This seems unfair."

 

 

 

13. "I compared the size of our one-bedroom suite to our friends' three-bedroom and ours was significantly smaller."

 

 

 

14. "The brochure stated: 'No hairdressers at the resort.' We're trainee hairdressers and we think they knew and made us wait longer for service."

 

 

 

15. "When we were in Spain, there were too many Spanish people there. The receptionist spoke Spanish, the food was Spanish. No one told us that there would be so many foreigners."

 

 

 

16. "We had to line up outside to catch the boat and there was no air-conditioning."

 

 

 

17. "It is your duty as a tour operator to advise us of noisy or unruly guests before we travel."

 

 

 

18. "I was bitten by a mosquito. The brochure did not mention mosquitoes."

 

 

 

19. "My fiancee and I requested twin-beds when we booked, but instead we were placed in a room with a king bed. We now hold you responsible and want to be re-reimbursed for the fact that I became pregnant. This would not have happened if you had put us in the room that we booked."

 

 

 

BE AWARE .... THEY WALK AMONG US ... and THEY VOTE!!!!

 

 

As a 9-1-1 dispatcher for 30 years it would not surprise me in the least that every one of these was an actual complaint.

 

 

Was it Truman Capote who said "People are Stupid" ?

Yea, we have all seen our share here of folks that just are not happy. And yes, there are some with very legitimate issues.

 

I happened to come across this site and found some of the crazy people. Reading it is enough you make you want to stay home.

Pour yourself a stiff one, get out the popcorn and enjoy.

 

yep, we have seen our share here, and most are not even willing to admit they could be wrong. Some of them we see over and over...

 

or they can be like our younger daughter we are going to Vegas with next week. SHe isn't a constant complainer, but a constant worrier. That is why our other daughter said the other day: mom, don't worry about your Vegas trip. so and so will do all the worrying for everyone.
