Commonly known as a STROBE LIGHT. Used those a lot in the 70's.

Your tax dollars at work/not working.

I’m imagining you punching a wall after you said that.

Its really more that Americans have so much money they don’t know what to do with it. Housekeeping is not a job that is permissible to pay less on the expectations of tips, unless you’re going on international waters for cruises.

Keep in mind that in the Western world, this is a problem that’s fairly exclusive to the USA, staff in Europe are paid a living wage. If you tip in the EU it’s a courtesy for a job well done, rather than a necessity for the staff to have a half-decent wage.

This is my problem. Instead of expecting guests to help your people make a living wage, how about you pay them a living wage? Raise the room rate by $3 a day and give it all to housekeeping and then we won’t have to make up for your shitty business practices.

How bad is the USA if you need to tip people for doing their jobs? I thought Donald Trump was going to change that? Isn’t that why you all voted for him?

In this guy’s defense, the “mechanics” down at Jiffy Lube used to tell him that he needed new tires and nownthat his car doesn’t have an engine, there’s no one he trusts that can inform him.

If you are willing to spend a little money on this, get a cheap-o toy drone on eBay or one of those websites that sells chinese stuff... Gearbest, Aliexpress and the like. You’ll find stuff for some 20 to 50 bucks easy, including the remote controler.

The picture is still funny, no matter what.

Cheetolini loves the poorly educated.

These are how you survive summer without AC:

Is this going to be another NSX boondoggle? Because it feels like another NSX boondoggle.

@Lula Mae Broadway: And then when your pipes freeze, you have a whole new problem.

Hmmmm.... here' a thought: Wonder if the current rash of infestations are being caused by hotels turning down their water heater temperatures or washing linen in cold water to save money....
