    Default ARRrrrrrggghgh - Watch yer stuff!

    Arrived in Plymouth, WI Sunday night for a job on Monday. There was a vintage car meet in town, and I got one of the few rooms left. A smoking room. (Could smell the lingering smoke.)

    I used my passthrough on the drive from Milwaukee, and changed a few carts on the way. I put a half dozen carts in the ash tray with the plugs so I could refill them.

    Returned from work today at 4:00pm, and THE FREAKING ASH TRAY WAS EMPTY!!!!!!! The maid dumped my good carts!!!!!! And she never even wiped out the ash tray. It still had juice in the bottom of it.

    Another lesson learned.

    It would be funny if it weren't so sad.

    Did you leave a tip on the pillow before you left?

    I'm still here, but not much that can be done. The carts were in the ashtray, and her job was to empty the ashtrays. Like I said, another lesson learned.

    Yeah, sometimes they dont think about what they toss.. Ive had a dinner receipt thrown away, which of course is a major pain in the ass to get reimbursed for.

    I even came back to my room once and she threw away my little ziplock baggie for my liquiids!!.. grrrrrr

    I never leave anything out when staying in a hotel. If I don't have time to sort it and put it where it goes, I shove it in a drawer. I especially never leave my toothbrush in sight!

    I always put the do not disturb sign on my door handle when I leave. I don't let them clean my room unless I'm there.

    I am the same way. In hotels I have lost cigarettes, zippo lighters, money left on the counter. Either way I could never prove it. Was a very different experience.

    I leave stuff out, but pretty much without exception, every time I travel I leave the "Do not Disturb" sign up the entire time that I'm there. I do not want them in my room touching anything.
