The Girl Came, Served —And Left
This could have happened at Whakatane where accommodation is very scarce also. A girl came to a Tauranga hotel one afternoon and was engaged as a waitress. She was allotted a room and served dinner that night. In the morning she served breakfast. In the morning, after serving breakfast, she also approached her new employers and said: “I’m sorry, I’m leaving. I took the job just to get accommodation for the night. I couldn’t get it anywhere else.” She left.
