G'day all,
New thread, end of yet another working week
The housekeeping staff where I stay must think I am totally weird The standard is still pretty average.
The apartment we are in now has a huge balcony which is great but.....the floors above tend to think it is just a gigantic ashtray Especially after the weekend our balcony is disgusting. I asked for a broom and received a dustpan and small handbrush. Because housekeeping is so bad, it was agreed they would come in once a week and do a thorough job.
Yesterday I sent an email (after the 'thorough' clean) for the kitchen floor to be swept and washed, the cooktops to be cleaned and the balcony to be swept and cigarette buts to be disposed of. I also again asked for a broom and said I was hppy to sweep the balcony myself after the weekend. When I came home last night, most of my requests were attended to and I got yet another dustpan and handbroom
I do not believe that they placed another dustpan etc right next to the one that was already there, they must think we are a bit kinky
So this morning I will try and find some clipart for a broom with a long handle, which is what I would like and email it.
Talking about having to draw pictures, honestly at times I feel I might as well give up.
The following was emailed to me this morning, the question is are you investing your money wisely??????
If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would
> now be worth $49.00.
>
> With Enron, you would have $16.50 of the original $1,000.00.
>
> With Worldcom, you would have less than $5.00 left.
>
> If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser (the beer, not the stock)
> one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the cans for the 10 cent
> deposit, you would have $214.00.
>
> Based on the above, the current investment advice is to drink heavily and
> recycle.
Have a great weekend all, best go and find a picture of a broom!!!!!
Cheers
