The YMCA rule for locker rooms is no opposite-sex kids over 5. But that's a bit different than public bathrooms, since there's nekkid people involved.
A (5) sticks like glue to her Dad and insists on going with him into the men's room than coming into the women's room with me, but hopefully not for much longer. Why aren't all bathrooms just unisex with stalls for everyone? Do urinals really save THAT much time?
There's not even a g-d minibar anymore.
Seriously? That was what made me think paying for wifi made some kind of sense, it'd be like having internet access in the minibar.
For the big hotel chains their business model is built around clients where a company is paying the charges, not an individual.
Yeah, that makes sense, but I would think wifi would be something companies would very much want their traveling employees to have.
I think I am giving up on lawn maintenance for today and ordering a new lawnmower from Amazon. Kind of silly, but I think it's what will get my grass cut soonest with the least aggravation. Sorry, neighbors.
My problem has been that even when the company picks up the cost of internet, fancy hotel internet is not especially fast or reliable.

This too. My employer always pays for "enhanced" wifi, but most of the time 4G on my phone is faster.
That is the key part of all of it. For the big hotel chains their business model is built around clients where a company is paying the charges, not an individual.
True. Which I guess explains the lack of minibars, except I'd be happy to pay for my own stupid $11 tiny Chablis. (What? I like minibars.)

It really isn't. They never seem to provide enough bandwidth to accommodate all the conference people who are jumping on it all at the same time.
And let me tell you, the cost of providing wireless in a conference space is a huge racket. The hotel makes such bank on that.
They could do a better job of it, then! Our IT guys are there struggling to manage the connection every time.
Access to the wifi was part of the casino's Resort Fee, which covered the pool and spa and all that. And the spa had additional fees. But I understand that in Vegas, they're after every dollar, so I don't begrudge them. I just don't use anything else that requires a fee.
OK, ran the dog, did some laundry, did some dog training with my sister in the park. Now I gotta go measure the garage and see if Home Depot has some kind of racks I can install.
