CALLING IN THE ARMY TO MAKE A BED

by Dan O'Day on June 20, 2009

I have stayed in thousands of hotel rooms in 36 countries. But I’ve never stayed at a hotel where Housekeeping is even sloppier and more incompetent than I am at making a bed.

Until a couple of months ago, when I spent a week at Spangdahlem Lodging (Germany).

It was so bad that I turned to the U.S. Army for help.

OOOOH no……lol

The Air Force uses hospital corners too, and I'll go heads up w/ them any time! :)

Not ONLY can you have someone from the Air Force make your bed, but it won't require half a platoon (squadron) to do it. lol

I guess housekeeping took a nap

You wouldn’t need three people to remake the bed at an Air Force base, because Air Force housekeeping gets it right the first time.

SFX: SWISH – two points in the hoop to Kim (I am not at liberty to mention Kim’s wonderful husband’s high flying position but trust that the context makes this sweeter)…LOL!!!

Who Owns Whose Words



When you post something on this blog, you retain the right to use your words elsewhere.

I get to use your words elsewhere, too: in a newsletter, book, 3-D hologram, major motion
picture, etc. I'm not saying I will, but it's possible.

But you don't get to take the stuff I write here – even if it's in response to something you
wrote – and use it elsewhere.

Just so you know.

Thanks,
Dan O'Day
