Taking Advantage Again

Sometimes, people think that the reputation they have built over the years could allow them to get away with anything they do. Moreover, people who are among the pioneers in a field often are looked upon as the respected ones because they dared to venture into the unknown and with their success, paved the way for others to follow. While making a name in the unknown field, these people managed to build a name and recognition from clients who were pleased with their work.

If there is something to be said about Known Personality (KP) is that she knows how to work a trade and take advantage of a reputation that she has built in more than a decade of being in her field. Thus, KP would be among the top personalities to be invited in many gatherings of the elite brands and companies.

KP knows her worth and she will not hide it all. KP could maneuver her way to take advantage of her invitations to high-end events overseas. KP was once invited to a press launch of an international brand in a nearby country. While at the hotel, KP allegedly availed a hefty amount of spa treatments that she charged to her hotel bill.

When Her Hosts (HH) saw the charges, they reminded her that they would only cover incidentals, and not the spa treatments. Nonetheless, HH did not make a fuss over it and just allowed it to pass. In another event, KP was again invited by HH and she was reminded of the allowable charges that she could incur while covering the event. KP did not follow and allegedly did the same thing as she did in the previous one. After the second incident, HH was very disappointed. That was the last straw and KP was no longer invited to any of their events.
