Description of service

The service cost $110 for an afternoon's lessons in cross country skiing and included being yelled at a lot by a kid and a lot of time figuring out the skiing thing on my own. God help us all if he offers any other services. Too I'll never get the afternoon back.


Review of Service

Being yelled at by a 13 year old kid who doesn't ski that well himself and was more intent on failing to impress one of the girls in the group than teach is not the most pleasant way to spend an afternoon. In fact I think searching for and finding the 8 year old he managed to lose was more fun than the class. The 8 year old was much smarter than all of the rest of us, he went back to the chalet and got a hot, tasty beverages.

Fortunately I paid by credit card so I was able to be passive aggressive and just reverse the charges by saying the services promised were not rendered.


Tips

Don't go skiing, skiing is a stupid sport. Just sit around the chalet, drink hot chocolate with booze in it, and flirt with the ski bunny college students and trophy wives. You'll stay much warmer that way and have way more fun.
