A couple went to Chicago for a visit, the wife was eager to visit a posh department store about a dozen blocks from their hotel.
The husband obligingly hailed a cab. “The lady wants to go to ‘the posh department store'” he told the driver. The cabby looked over his shoulder at them. “And the gentleman?” he asked, “Does he want to go to the bank?”
Teacher: I’d like a room, please.
Hotel Receptionist: Single, Sir?
Teacher: Yes, but I am engaged.
One morning in a posh hotel breakfast room, a guest called over the head waiter. “Good morning, sir! I’d like to order two boiled eggs, one of them so undercooked that it’s runny, and the other so overcooked that it’s tough. I also want some rubbery bacon, burnt toast, and butter that’s so cold it’s impossible to spread. Finally, I’ll have a pot of extra-weak coffee, served at room temperature.”
The bewildered waiter almost stuttered. “Sir! We cannot serve such an awful breakfast to you here!” “Why not?” the guest replied. “That’s what I got here yesterday!”
