Accidental omission

I don't know how I could forget "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus." Definitely should've made the list.

Top 5 Most Hated Christmas Songs

1) Must Be Santa - This song is only heard sung nasal and out of tune at school Christmas pageants.

2) The Gift - I never really thought of this as a Christmas song, but it's playing on the Holiday Lite 93.9 All Christmas All The Time, so it must be.

3) Santa Claus is Coming To Town - Mariah or Jackson 5, it's terrible either way. The hotel also plays an awful remix with the voices of woodland creatures.

4) Christmas Don't Be Late - AKA the Chipmunk song; enough said.

5) Jingle Bells - the anthem of bad Christmas songs.

Cloudy with a Side of Meatballs

So a while ago at work this guest goes to park in the hotel’s parking garage. She was recently in an accident and was super paranoid about driving in Chicago, parking in a public garage, and wiping her nose. She was very adament with the valet about how she didn’t trust him etc. To protect her beloved Range Rover, she drives up to the roof of the parking garage to put 3 floors between her and all the other dangerous honda and ford riff raff below. The next morning she comes out to her car and someone has decided to throw a football size party pizza out of their 27th story hotel window. And the pizza doesn’t land anywhere else in the empty 5,000 or so sq. ft. of parking lot. Oh no, it landed directly on the windshield/hood of her precious Rover. SPLAT! Standard Parking still maintains their stand that they are not responsible for any damages, or toppings, inflicted upon any vehicle while in their possession.
