No judgment implied at all. I just found it odd I was cleaning up.

do you tip?

i leave some $$ on the pillow case, which is surrounded by my filth.

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.. Now that is fked up...and WHO in the title of this Thread is being BLAMED?

MOther always told me she would "smack my little azz" if I didn't keep MY ROOM clean...it got to the point that I started to mess up the room on purpose as I got to enjoy those little azz smacking sessions...especially since Mother always put on her leathers...

That has happened to me on more than one occasion. Like traveling for work isn't bad enough...

And it is CDO - the letters should be in alphabetical order.

If I stay more than two nights.

The only time I leave a tip is when the hotel room gets trashed due to a bachelor party. Not that that would ever happen to me......

Now when it comes to tipping, I will leave something even for one night. But if for more than a day, I will make sure to leave something daily as the crew might not be the same every day. (I mean I hope they don't work 7 days a week, but probably 6.) Just want to make sure everyone gets covered because it's a minimum wage job. They probably don't pick up even 50 bucks a day in tips.

I'd like to clean the top floor suites, though. ;) :D

How about office?

I occasionally work late and have gotten to know the cleaning crew. I am going to make sure they get a xmas tip from me on Thursday. I guess I feel obligated?:confused:

When I read the title, I thought Tabs was posting.

Carry on . . .

Clean up? I pretend I'm Keith Moon :)

I keed...

And they are the cheapest Bast@rd$ of them all.

Billy Gates at the Belagio sends the Chauffer out for McDonalds....

Ohhh you are as cute as a Chinese baby...

Bist du ein Untersee Boot Kaptain....

Funny you mentioned this. I just gave the cleaning lady at the office an envelop for Christmas. I'm always the last one at the office and she's always friendly. One time I dropped the key to my Carrera heading for elevator. Got down to the car and couldn't fine the key! As I headed back toward the elevator, she comes out with key in hand.

I have trashed rooms. But I usually leave them tidy. Make the bed? Are you joking? We often rearrange furniture, glasses, ice buckets between rooms etc etc. I book a lot of rooms every year. You use them & then you don't.

And tipping? No. I can't expense it. Yeah, cheap bâtard, I know. But I fill that room off season. I fill that room when nobody is traveling for fun. Business travelers like me keep them working year 'round. I already have 120 room nights booked (for me & others) in 2012.

You drive a Porsche.

It must be something about being Pelican as I do the same things.

Restaurant-pile the dishes/trash neatly so it's easy for the server to carry away

Hotel-pick up any trash, straighten up the bed(s), tidy up the bathroom

Work-I have always kept a neat office. I subscribe to the "clean desk" policy. My work truck is another story. I share it with another employee and he is NOT into being neat.

I also need to tidy up the house if we are going away for more than an hour or so.

MY cars are also always neat and tidy. I keep the outside of my wife's vehicle clean. The inside of it is hers to deal with. I gave up on that long ago.

In a hotel room as I type. As with most I don't trash the room but I also don't clean up. You're taking someones job if you do!!!

Oh and Seahawk... Thank you for saying "my Mom". Geez that drives me crazy when folks say "Dad", Mom" and I are buying a pick up, (Sydney). Who's friggin' Mom or Dad?????

Have you noticed that 99% of the time, the phone cord is wound around the phone? I think it is a maid's signal that the room is clean.
