Dear Maid,
Please do not leave any more of those little bars of soap in my
bathroom since I have brought my own bath-sized Dial. Please remove
the six unopened little bars from the shelf under the medicine
chest and another three in the shower soap dish. They are in my
way.
Thank you,
S. Berman

Dear Room 635,
I am not your regular maid. She will be back tomorrow, Thursday,
from her day off. I took the three hotel soaps out of the shower
soap dish as you requested. The six bars on your shelf I took out
of your way and put on top of your Kleenex dispenser in case you
should change your mind.
This leaves only the three bars I left today, as my instructions
from the management are to leave three soaps daily.
I hope this is satisfactory.
Kathy
Relief Maid

Dear Maid -- I hope you are my regular maid.
Apparently Kathy did not tell you about my note to her concerning
the little bars of soap. When I got back to my room this evening I
found you had added three little Camays to the shelf under my
medicine cabinet.
I am going to be here in the hotel for two weeks and have brought
my own bath-size Dial so I won't need those 6 little Camays which
are on the shelf. They are in my way when shaving, brushing teeth,
etc.
Please remove them.
S. Berman

Dear Mr. Berman,
My day off was last Wednesday so the relief maid left three hotel
soaps which we are instructed to do by the management. I took the
six soaps which were in your way on the shelf and put them in the
soap dish where your Dial was. I put the Dial in the medicine
cabinet for your convenience. I didn't remove the three
complimentary soaps which are always placed inside the medicine
cabinet for all new check-ins and which you did not object to when
you checked in last Monday.
Please let me know if I can of further assistance.
Your regular maid,
Dotty

Dear Mr. Berman,
The assistant manager, Mr. Kensedder, informed me this A.M. that
you called him last evening and said you were unhappy with your
maid service. I have assigned a new girl to your room. I hope you
will accept my apologies for any past inconvenience.
If you have any future complaints please contact me so I can give
it my personal
attention. Call extension 1108 between 8AM and 5PM.
Thank you,
Elaine Carmen
Housekeeper

Dear Miss Carmen,
It is impossible to contact you by phone since I leave the hotel
for business at 7:45 AM and don't get back before 5:30 or 6PM.
That's the reason I called Mr. Kensedder last night. You were
already off duty.
I only asked Mr. Kensedder if he could do anything about those
little bars of soap. The new maid you assigned me must have thought
I was a new check-in today, since she left another three bars of
hotel soap in my medicine cabinet along with her regular delivery
of three bars on the bath-room shelf.
In just five days here I have accumulated 24 little bars of
soap.
Why are you doing this to me?
S. Berman
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Mr. Berman,
Your maid, Kathy, has been instructed to stop delivering soap to
your room and remove the extra soaps.
If I can be of further assistance, please call extension 1108
between 8AM and 5PM.
Thank you,
Elaine Carmen
Housekeeper

Dear Mr. Kensedder,
My bath-size Dial is missing. Every bar of soap was taken from my
room including my own bath-size Dial. I came in late last night and
had to call the bellhop to bring me 4 little Cashmere
Bouquets.
S. Berman
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Mr. Berman,
I have informed our housekeeper, Elaine Carmen, of your soap
problem.
I cannot understand why there was no soap in your room since our
maids are instructed to leave three bars of soap each time they
service a room. The situation will be rectified immediately.
Please accept my apologies for the inconvenience.
Martin L. Kensedder
Assistant Manager

Dear Mrs. Carmen,
Who the hell left 54 little bars of Camay in my room? I came in
last night and found 54 little bars of soap. I don't want 54 little
bars of Camay. I want my one damn bar of bath-size Dial. Do you
realize I have 54 bars of soap in here?!
All I want is my bath size Dial.
Please give me back my bath-size Dial.
S. Berman
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Mr. Berman,
You complained of too much soap in your room so I had them removed.
Then you complained to Mr. Kensedder that all your soap was missing
so I personally returned them.
The 24 Camays which had been taken and the three Camays you are
supposed to receive daily (sic). I don't know anything about the 4
Cashmere Bouquets.
Obviously your maid, Kathy, did not know I had returned your soaps
so she also brought 24 Camays plus the three daily Camays. I don't
know where you got the idea this hotel issues bath-size Dial. I was
able to locate some bath-size Ivory which I left in your
room.

Dear Mrs. Carmen,
Just a short note to bring you up-to-date on my latest soap
inventory. As of today I possess:
- On shelf under medicine cabinet - 18 Camay in 4 stacks of 4 and 1
stack of 2.
- On Kleenex dispenser - 11 Camay in 2 stacks of 4 and 1 stack of
3.
- On bedroom dresser - 1 stack of 3 Cashmere Bouquet, 1 stack of 4
hotel-size Ivory, and 8 Camay in 2 stacks of 4.
- Inside medicine cabinet - 14 Camay in 3 stacks of 4 and 1 stack
of 2.
- In shower soap dish - 6 Camay, very moist.
- On northeast corner of tub - 1 Cashmere Bouquet, slightly
used.
- On northwest corner of tub - 6 Camays in 2 stacks of 3.
Please ask Kathy when she services my room to make sure the stacks
are neatly piled and dusted. Also, please advise her that stacks of
more than 4 have a tendency to tip. May I suggest that my bedroom
window sill is not in use and will make an excellent spot for
future soap deliveries.
One more item: I have purchased another bar of bath-sized Dial
which I am keeping in the hotel vault in order to avoid further
misunderstandings.
