So you think it's easy owning an RV Park ???

My reply would be.....Sorry Richard there was a problem with the site, I had to cancel your reservation.

And then Richard would post reviews on every site he could including Google telling the world what a poor operation Jim runs. As a good business operator, Jim quietly kicks a few pebbles and walks it off and smiles when Richard arrives after hours the next day. It's a good thing Riker is around to sooth his soul.

Don't be a Richard.

Thats the problem these days. Someone should start a site reviewing clients.

Good customer service always wins but most other campgrounds would change the formal reservation and then it falls into the cancellation policy.

Semper Gumby!

I will not stay at Jim's resort, nothing to do with Jim! Everything that I have seen on his place, makes me a believer that he knows how to run an exemplary park.

Nothing wrong with the site being in 'move-in" condition for the next RV'er that comes along. As the scenario is written, I don't believe any decently run CG is going to wait until the next site rental to have empty sites cleaned and ready to rent to the next RV at the gate. If any do, that's the CG's I want to avoid.

Tell Richard I'll meet him for a beer.

It's about the inconsiderate treatment of the managers time. As written, the extra effort is the point.

Kevin, if all businesses were perfect, in the eyes of the business owner, we would all be in business ourselves, and there wouldn't be anyone to work at them.

Jim had the option of saying "sorry, all my sites are full tonight" if he didn't think he'd reasonably be able to get the site ready a day early.

So! I have noticed Jim's Excel story telling abilities. I have also noticed his desire to go above and beyond.

That Said, one would think everyone would have the desire to go through life learning how to be a better person. Part of that might lead to a person's desire to listen to lessons conveyed in story format.

The site would have been in "move in condition" as part of the normal routine. Just the job order had to be rearranged in consideration for the existing guests peace and quiet. Extra effort was undertaken by using the "manual" mowing of the grass instead of running a machine. That was Jim's consideration for the existing guests peace and quiet. That extra effort went unappreciated by Richard but I'm sure he would have been pleased if he had arrived early as expected. I take that as being a campground that I would certainly like to stay at. If you see Richard tell him he owes Jim a beer.
