A Santa and his wife are traveling by car from Delhi to Mumbai. After
almost twenty-four hours on the road, they're too tired to continue, and
they decide to stop for a rest. They stop at a nice hotel and take a room,
but they only plan to sleep for four hours and then get back on the road.
When they check out four hours later, the desk clerk hands them a bill for
Rs. 5000/- The Santa explodes and demands to know why the charge is so
high. He tells the clerk although it's a nice hotel, the rooms certainly
aren't worth Rs. 5000/-.
When the clerk tells him Rs. 5000/- is the standard rate, the man insists
on speaking to the Manager. The Manager appears, listens to the Santa ,
and then explains that the hotel has an Olympic-sized pool and a huge
conference center that were available for the husband and wife to use.
But we didn't use them", the Santa complains.
Well, they are here, and you could have," explains the Manager.
He goes on to explain they could have taken in one of the shows for which
the hotel is famous. "The best entertainers from, Hollywood and Las Vegas
perform here," the Manager says.
But we didn't go to any of those shows," Santa complains again.
"Well, we have them, and you could have", the Manager replies. No matter
what facility the Manager mentions, the Santa replies "But we didn't use
it". The Manager is unmoved, and eventually the Santa finally gives up
and agrees to pay. He writes a check and gives it to the Manager.
The Manager is surprised when the looks at the check.
"But sir," he says, "this check is only made out for Rs.1500/."
"That's right," says the Santa , "I charged you Rs. 3500/- for sleeping
with my wife."
"But I didn't!" exclaims the Manager.
"Well," the Santa replies, "she was here, and you could have."
