That's exactly right. Technically, the meme is incorrect though because the hotel can accommodate Sisyphus by simply asking everyone to move to the next room. The person in room x moves to room x+1.

It said "may not," not "can not." The hotel may choose not to move everyone to a new room.

You make a good point. Asking all guests to move in order to make room for one guy and a big rock seems a bit unreasonable.

You might be surprised how motivating a man with a big rock can be.
