Today, I was driving up to a Four Seasons, not to stay, but to attend a work event that was already paid for. I did look a little out of place in my Toyota Corolla amongst the luxury SUVs, but was nonplussed when a man came up to me, knocked on my window, and said, "The Motel 6 is over there." FML

Today, I went to a fancy restaurant. I was coming right from work and brought a change of clothes with me. I parked in an empty corner of the parking lot to change. As I was pulling my pants up, I noticed that I was facing an apartment complex where an old guy was watching me from his balcony. FML
Today, I was driving in a busy area looking for a place to park. I happened to lock eyes with a really handsome man who was walking alongside the road. He approached my car with a huge, gorgeous smile, and as I rolled my window down, he asked, "Are you my Uber?" FML
Today, I got into my car in the parking lot, or at least I thought I did. I sat down, buckled up, and only noticed something was off when a guy walked over from the shopping trolley carousel, opened the passenger door and said, “Can I help you?” Same car model, wrong car. FML
Today, I drove the six hours to LA to attend my Uncle's birthday party. When I tried to get off at the exit, it took me two hours just to get onto the street where the club was. By the time I showed up, the party was already over, so I ended up going to a Denny's. I drove eight hours for a Denny's. FML
Today, I had my car valeted at my hotel. The manager came out, took my keys, and said the car would be waiting for me in an hour. I was then forced to watch from the lobby as the "manager" sped off downtown. FML
Today, while driving home from school, I noticed one of our hot quarterbacks in the car behind me. Trying to impress him, I pulled into the driveway of an expensive-looking house. To my horror, he pulled in behind me and asked what I was doing at his house. FML
Today, I decided to splurge and get valet parking at a fancy restaurant. I got out of the car and gave the man my keys and watched as he slowly backed my car into another car. FML
Today, after leaving my abusive partner, I checked into a hotel through a crisis service. Since then, I've been asked to have sex for $20, and also yelled at for not driving a woman to a shopping centre, which is a 5-minute walk away. I don't drive and have been here for an hour. FML
Today, I took a taxi to my hotel. I specifically said that my destination was the Hilton resort. He took me to a bed and breakfast across town. When I finally got to my hotel, I cursed him out and didn't give him a tip. I then realized I'd left my phone in the taxi after he left. FML
Today, I went to a business meeting over lunch. My new employer seemed normal enough while we were eating, but now I have received messages about how he will buy me new clothes, and we can rent a camping car and go to festivals next year. All I wanted was a job. FML

To which you replied: "the unemployment line is that way, you'll need it after I've had a talk with your boss". You shouldn't always go after a person's job, but there is no law against making them sweat a bit

I bet your Toyota is a hell of a lot cheaper to run than an SUV though

That's the point. If you can waste all that money on gas, insurance and repairs, you belong at the Four Seasons. Corolla owners belong at the more basic lodging. Before the hate comes, I've owned 3 Corollas and no SUVs.

OR, you buy the corolla because you're a middle class citizen who would rather stay in a nice hotel than ruin the environment and you can only pick one of those two options.

Just say, "Why, thank you. That's very helpful," then walk into the Four Season.

Hand him the keys and reply, "Why thank you, kind sir. Now don't scratch the car, I promised my maid I wouldn't when she lent it to me this morning. Vintage Maseratis are not the most reliable automobile for daily drivers."

Since when have Four Seasons been a high end hotel? When I was a kid, my family and I moved to a crappy part of our state. There was a Four Seasons there that was tiny and looked dilapidated. The area was always poor. My mom told me that my uncle had stayed there once. Then again, this could've been a place that just had the same name. While we lived there, it got torn down.
