It's like drunken country boy night tonight at my commuter hotel.

I'm just waiting for a squealing pig and a couple of "Wooooo WEEEEEEE!"'s to be exclaimed loudly from the lobby.

Ahh, Georgia.
 
quick, break out the webcam.

Ugh, sorry man!

Nights like that suck.
 
And to add insult to injury, I forgot uniform shirts so I had to hit the Flight Station at 0800. Then they were out of my size, so I just purchased one about a 1/2 size too large. So I'll be looking like some hip hop guy (not all that much) doing a single-shirt three day trip! Eww!

And the AC was too cold, but it was too humid in Georgia to turn it off or down cuz then I'd choke.

Ahh the glamourous life!

Forgot your shirts, eh? I once left for a 4-day with no underwear in my overnight bag. Nothing like washing your skivvies in the hotel sink everynight to make for a great trip!

Of course I am sure Doug was less than 2 blocks for the flight station on Virginia ave
 
Nah, I stay southwest of the airport on short nights and north of the airport on longer (but uncommutable long nights).

Hopefully the shirt lasts for another two days without going "El Stinko" on me!
 
Arghh humidity

I hate humidty and yet Im living in one of the most humid places. I always wondered about the overnight stays at hotels alone. It must feel very lonely. At least you go us.

Are you sure you did them in the sink, I've heard horror stories of people useing the in room coffee makers as a portable wash machine. Just put your skivies in the basket and run hot water throught the coffee maker ... yuck. I swear I will never use an in room coffee maker.

I used the sink, thankyouverymuch!
 
Speaking of interesting uses for coffee makers, I'd throw the hotel tea bags in the coffee basket, brew hot tea, mix a bit of sugar into the brew and pour it over ice... yummy!

Or "sun tea" when you get two bottles of water, submerge a tea bag in each, shake 'em up and put them on the glareshield for an hour when you're flying eastbound in the mornings or westbound in the evenings.

Mega yum!

Don't know why I mentioned it, but gotta stay sane somehow during a maintenance delay in KJAX!
 
I like the suntea in the glareshield idea! That's pretty innovative!

The only creative use I ever found for the coffee packs was to pin them in the lav to reduce sink factor.
 
Coffee packs also work to reduce the fish smell of those nasty crab boxes. I've busted quite a few coffee packages and thrown them in bins.

My best friend is an F/A who never leaves home with out a trial size spray bottle and some Febreeze. Works wonders I hear. I like the Woolite one use packets too. Wash & iron dry.

Please don't say you leave in there and don't sweep it out when you are done! There is nothing worse than stink coffee grinds all inside your knee pads sticking to your skin......

Man, if I had a dime for every night I came home with coffee stains on my knees..... I try to toss them against the bulkhead. By the time you fit 200+ bags into the plane, there ain't a whole lot of room for the broom.
