That filter is too slow, I just drink pure tap.

When you're in a hotel, and housekeeping merely knocks, without saying 'housekeeping' or anything, and then without leaving even a moment to respond, attempts to walk in.
like...is the cursory 3-4 second pause in which I could offer a "please come back in an hour" or "ok" too long to wait?
― Neanderthal, Monday, 29 July 2013 13:03 (ten years ago) link
Oh god, the number of times I've actually had to run and hide from overeager housekeeping because a simple "no thanks" is apparently too confusing. Two, that is the number of times.

I basically never want housekeeping to enter my room, maybe only once per hotel stay. I tell them this upfront and they still try and do it.
― Jeff, Monday, 29 July 2013 13:22 (ten years ago) link
Last two places had signs saying "if you want fresh towels leave them on the floor, otherwise hang them on the rails". Great, now how should I indicate I don't need my bed made every day either?

Are you putting the do not disturb sign on your doorknob? They're supposed to skip your room if that sign is there and come back to it later (if you ever take it down).
Some hotels have cards you can put on your bed telling housekeeping that they needn't change the sheets, but they will still make the bed.
― Lawyer... SUAVE... (carl agatha), Monday, 29 July 2013 13:33 (ten years ago) link
I usually put the sign on my doorknob, but sometimes I forget. and sometimes they come really early. it wasn't even 9 am this morning. lord!
I had the double bolt locked tho so they couldn't get in.
― Neanderthal, Monday, 29 July 2013 13:34 (ten years ago) link
yeah the do not disturb hanger has been around for like hundreds of years where you been ledge

then they call you and ask you "when can we changes yr sheets" and Louis CK gets angry
― Neanderthal, Monday, 29 July 2013 13:36 (ten years ago) link
I put the sign out as soon as I get in my room and leave it up for the entirety of my visit. Sometimes it falls off though, sometimes it is completely ignored, and then sometimes they call you asking "ARE YOU SURE YOU DON"T WANT HOUSEKEEPING".
― Jeff, Monday, 29 July 2013 13:37 (ten years ago) link
I usually am cool w/out it but I felt bad on my recent Baltimore trip as I got blood on the sheets (mosh pit injury not properly bandaged plus drunken stumbling).
― Neanderthal, Monday, 29 July 2013 13:40 (ten years ago) link
Having someone come in and make the bed and straighten your room and bring you fresh towels PRN is like the heigh of luxury. You're all weird and filthy.

Weird and filthy and cuddly, damn it.

usually I'm fine w/out it because my average trip is 1-2 days. if I'm vacationing for a week, damn straight I'm having housekeeping
― Neanderthal, Monday, 29 July 2013 13:50 (ten years ago) link
yeah I love housekeeping fairies. i don't like them waking me up but in general A+

most of my trips are business trips tho so often I'm out of the room before they even show up.

I remember that in Costa Rica the hangers say "Por Favor, No Me Moleste" -- do they say that in Spain too?

I felt like a monster when I let housekeeping change my sheets that had stains from the Snickers bar I'd eaten in bed while drunk the night before. There should be a sign that says, It's just chocolate.
― potatoes-in-law (Je55e), Monday, 29 July 2013 14:09 (ten years ago) link
They then leave a similar sign that says "Whatever"

Scariest part of The Wall is that first scene where housekeeping comes down the hall with the vacuum and knocks on Pink's door.

I hope you USA-ians with soiled sheets left your housekeepers a nice tip when you checked out.
I assume that housekeeping tips are not done in other countries?

Cosmetics superstore Ulta is the worst for this I have ever seen. I bought ONE item and the receipt was all joking aside ten inches long.

oh i've gotten cvs receipts that have probably been a couple of feet long, no exaggeration

cvs receipts are terrible. safeway can be kinda nuts too

they have good sales but their coupon system is ott and their stores are depressing as hell
― the pen is mightier than the penisword (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 29 July 2013 15:13 (ten years ago) link
Oh man, this is the worst. It's gotten to the point where I only use my CVS card if I know I'm getting a substantial discount by doing so.
― blatant marvin jack (jaymc), Monday, 29 July 2013 15:21 (ten years ago) link
Who ever goes to cvs when a Walgreens exists?
― Jeff, Monday, 29 July 2013 15:22 (ten years ago) link
There's a CVS a half-block from my office. Also two CVSes in my neighborhood closer than any Walgreens.
― blatant marvin jack (jaymc), Monday, 29 July 2013 15:27 (ten years ago) link
Oh wait, never mind. Closest drugstore is still a CVS (0.5 mi), but there's a Walgreen's and another CVS equidistant (0.7 mi) from me.
― blatant marvin jack (jaymc), Monday, 29 July 2013 15:29 (ten years ago) link
Point is: CVS is more convenient.
Big FUCK OFF to Walgreens, btw.
― pplains, Monday, 29 July 2013 15:30 (ten years ago) link
For personal reasons or did they do something generally evil? Because Walgreens is my jam and I refuse to go to CVS, but only because of long, protracted, frustrating battles I have had with their stupid mail order pharmacy.
― Lawyer... SUAVE... (carl agatha), Monday, 29 July 2013 15:42 (ten years ago) link
I'm just mad that they wouldn't sell me Sudafed. Also the one time they said they'd page me when my order was ready and after an hour, I went to check and they said Oh, we're not going to fill it at all.

And the "79¢ or 2/$1.25" nine-inch price tags can go to hell too.

I like their rewards system, especially on prescriptions. Every couple of months I get enough points to get $5 off a purchase.
