It’s for drinks. Is that actually confusing? Rather than put an ice maker in every room they just put one on each floor. So if they’re broken or ill-kept, that affects a lot of people.
Yup. Doubly true when someone wants to use the criminally overpriced mini fridge in their room. Maybe people want their $25 shot of whiskey on the rocks.
Or when the mini fridge has that stupidly buggy weight system that charges you a storage fee rendering it effectively useless
So, you basically need to pull an Indiana Jones and replace the liquor with something else of equal weight?
I feel like I’m the only person who goes to a hotel to sleep, not chill a 24 pack of diet Coke and a bottle of champagne to drink (without this hotel ice) after eating a ham sandwich out of my rolling cooler which needs a top off.
Where are you all traveling with your champagne and ham sandwiches?!
Said by someone who’s never had to cool down their bear beer with a bad mini fridge or without one at all.
I’m leaving the typo because it makes me giggle.
Edit - oh I was giggling about bears so much I forgot. It’s also a service for the local youth Ice Hockey teams. They come to the hotels with these cute little plastic sticks capable of turning a hallway into a ice based turkey shoot improvised game of hockey with ice pucks.
My family used to buy summer passes to the local Holiday Inn’s swimming pool.
My cousin and I used to fill our pockets with ice cubes from the machines and then go jump into the pool.
No further questions please.
Too bad, I wanna know how it augmented jumping in the pool! Were you expecting it to in any way? Or was it just ADHD decision making?
It did make jumping in a little more refreshing, but it was just ADHD decision making. We also threw the ice at our other cousins while they weren’t looking.
“You’ve got to start selling this for more than a dollar a bag. We lost 4 more men on this expedition.”
