I just saw the stupidest thing ever

[MindPilot]

well since the last presidential press conference.

I'm in my room at the Stardust in Vegas (I have already lost my self-imposed gambling limit of $100) and I wanted to keep the housekeeping person from barging in. So I go to put the "Do Not Disturb" thingy on the outside door knob. But it says "Maid Service Please" ON BOTH SIDES! :wtf: good is that? Is my room going to be twice as clean?

1. They're trying to tell you not to stay in your room :) If you're in the

room, you aren't giving them your money :)

2. Doesn't matter if they barge in 'cuz you know what they say

"what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas". I would call the desk and ask them for one that is not so redundant. And extra soap! Make them wonder...

4. Tell that to my buddy

Who got the clap from a streetwalker.

8. Oh, a souvenir!

And most people just get crappy plastic nic-nacs. He got the gift that keeps on giving.

3. My sister is a cocktail waitress at Harrahs

One morning about 2:00am, Dennis Rodman was walking around the casino in a towel, flashing everyone.

I guess he was staying there, because he was already thrown out of all the good joints.

5. one could deduce that the lack of a sign on the door meant

'do not disturb' and that one could expect maid service only if the sign is on the door. but that's just my logic.

6. Here's a dumb 'do not disturb' story

I used to work production support for newspapers and would be in the press room until 1:00am, so I tended to sleep late the next morning. I put my 'Do Not Disturb' sign out so the maid would skip me and the front desk called on the phone asking if I needed my room cleaned. Hello?! Do not disturb doesn't mean, don't knock but have the front desk call. Sheesh.
:shrug:

7. I was in Vegas a couple of weeks ago

they don't want you in your room, we were out of the room like 18 hours a day. I gambled too much and drank too much, but damn if it wasn't a good time. It's kind of strange going through the casino floor on your way to breakfast and you see people already drinking beer and other booze at 10am.
