  1. Late at night you arrive at the hotel with which you have reserved a room. The sleepy reception clerk says he can’t find your reservation and a hotel is full. He says you had better wait till tomorrow morning. Some guests are supposed to sign out at 10 am.

  2. You have been staying at the hotel for 5 days and found that it isn’t a very happy place to stay in. Everything here is getting on your nerves - the chambermaids shout loudly early in the morning, they don’t change bedlinen in time, the steward is careless, the desk-clerk never does what you ask him to. You want to sign out but you have paid in advance for 10 days.
