Water Cooler Wednesday: From Both Sides Now





I don't think a week goes by that I don't have to coordinate with Security and Housekeeping to locate, package and return guests' personal effects.   Often, it's cell phone chargers left behind.  But I'll never forget 4 place settings of stoneware ... or a World Series Championship ring.
  
Once I suggested -- but my GM ixnayed  -- our agents asking guests at check-out, "Have you checked under your bed? ... in your safe? ... behind the bathroom door?"

Just when I start to get cranky, I have to remind myself of my beloved Tweety-Bird pillow left behind in a nameless west Texas motel room .... 
or, the pile Christmas presents I left under the tree on our way to Florida.  (Nearly to Fort Worth, yes. We turned around.)


While travelling, have you ever left any of your personal effects behind?

Did you get them back?





Hugs from Phoenix,
