Pay a compliment, if they say "bet you say that to all the girls"
Don't reply "Yep"

I always do this, although I admit being late a couple of times. So I always assume its a given.

However I've still had MANY bad bookings despite doing these things. It may help but it's still no guarantee you are going to have a good booking.

Is it fair to say that some of these misadventures begin when you knowingly let the little head handle reservations, leaving the big head to deal with complaints?

Perhaps deep down you suspect how it’ll end, but recognise the makings of a good forum story.
Either way, I salute your willingness to report back—it’s a public service. The lessons are ours; the invoice is yours.
