That small action may only have saved me a few seconds labor, but it made me feel like me and the anonymous stranger I was cleaning up after were in it together.
I try to clean the room as best I can before leaving. (like, throw trash away, pile the towels together, etc.) This also helps me ensure I don't forget anything. I've never stripped the bed though.
How many people leave a cash tip in their hotel room for the housekeepers?
Depends what country I'm in.
How many people wear some form of stilletto or heels over 2.5 inches when flying? Or boots?
I've never worn heels in my life. Ain't gonna start when travelling.
How many people buy a box of candy to take back to their office mates?
Always.
How many people get cravings for a food or drink only when they travel? (Like, ordering tomato juice or bloody mary mix on the plane, when you normally don't drink it)
Ooh! Me! Like, specifically that. I love the bloody mary tomato juice on planes. But have you looked at the ingredients? Those tiny cans are half of your salt intake for the day! Craxy.
Huh. I've never left less than $20 for hotel housekeeping, even if it was a one-night stay.
Answers:
1) I usually forget and feel guilty later.
2) I could only wear heels over 2.5 inches if I had one of those electric carts drive me everywhere. I wear slip-on walking/running shoes. (Note to people who wear high heels or flipflops on the plane: There is no guarantee that the plane will land at your intended destination. Do you really want to spend four days in Gander, Newfoundland, in stilettos?)
3) When I had officemates, I usually brought back candy because it's easy to share.
4) Lots of water.

I'm so glad other people do this too.

Absolutely. (Except when I've forgotten and then I feel TERRIBLE!)

Hell no! Sneakers or my fleuvog angels.

I always mean to and then forget! But I want to be Megan's co-worker. Fleur de Sel caramels? YUH-UM!

Not when I travel by air but when I roadtrip I always want Dr. Pepper and peanuts.

May I be so bold as to speak for my toilet scrubbing brethren and say, "You are a goddess among women."
Someone told me once that $20/day was standard, but I've never been able to afford that. So I usually leave $20/weekend or $5/day for longer stays.

Whoah. Maybe if you're staying at the Ritz? I've never heard $20/day.
I was suposed to get a call for a phone interview at noon. It's now 12:07 here....no call. AGH. I hate this.
