Today back in NY I ask a worker who explained like this: The girl at the desk didn't know I spoke Spanish. After dealing with her for 3 days in English I now all of a sudden come out with something in Spanish like this to the caddy and the expression frequently used is "Que Raro"
I still don't get it.

How did you say sleeping or caddying in Spanish?
