Lobby excuses.

Ok. We all know that dreaded walk thru the lobby. What's your best excuse? I'm lucky. I work construction, so I'm always dressed accordingly. Construction guys are invisible and I've worked in enough motels to know so. I've walked thru some high class hotels and no one ever gives me second look. So next time you are walking around in a motel and you see a construction worker walking around with a big smile, that guy just got laid.

I just look them in the eye and say hi. If they ask how the room is I just great and carry on. I.e., what I do in hotels I am staying in.

When I stay at a hotel, I tell my guy how to find the elevator and my room so they look like they are staying there.

When I go on an outcall, I ask where the elevator is.

This is one reason I prefer nice hotels with big busy lobbies. If you can get the elevator location from the provider it helps a lot too. The main thing is to just stroll in like you belong there and you know where you are heading. Hesitation, looking around lost, etc will draw hotel staff attention. After all, they are there to be helpful to their guests and you're looking like you need help. You don't need to make up excuses if they don't notice you enough to ask you questions.

Now maybe I'm playing with fire but on more than one occasion I've gone back down to the lobby to pick up drinks and snacks from the bar or snack bar etc. Last time it was after spending a delightful hour with a visiting girl. We were chatting a bit and she asked if I would mind getting a soda and some snacks. Hell, she even handed me a $20 to pay for it which I didn't take. Grabbed a couple sodas and some snacks at the snack bar next to the front desk, put them on the counter and the lady asked if I was charging it to my room or paying cash, paid cash and back up to her room I went. My point being, you fit in, you act natural, and most times there won't ever be any questions or problems.

I learned a long time ago , anytime someone offers you money , take it. Say what you want , but if you don't take it , someone else is going to get it.

I walk in like I own the place lol

ryyyyyatttt

Grab some chocolates or a little gift and throw them in a plastic shopping bag. You will be a hit with the provider and look like you just ran out to pick something up you forgot. You could even check at the desk saying you forgot the layout when looking for the room.

Or stop by Hustler and get Nat some new shoes!

I do so love my shoes aces lol

Make sure you get some old fashion normal chocolate. Not any kind of raspberry/coffee flavored chocolate. This guy saw a girl before me once and left these fake chocolates and I bit into one and had to spit it out. Thanks dad.

Nat, you take some of the very best pictures IMHO, shoes being a big part of that! There is something to be said for classy and Mr cheap posted once that chicks dig the fashion comments.

I love bad ass pumps. The nice shoes approach always gets their attention. I guess old dogs can learn new tricks. Nice to see you were paying attention aces.
