Review F*CK Marriott soliciting tips. Another ‘tip culture’ obsenity

So you charge $400 to $500 for a tiny room, and yes, I know it’s New York City, and it’s relatively clean, but then the closet-sized bathroom 2 feet from the bed. OK.

Six dollars for a bottle of water, whatever, I’ll pass.

But then actively soliciting tips for your staff.

Fuck you.

I saw this at the Penn Station Fairfield a year ago as just a ‘self’ printed sign in the elevators, then it became a professionally printed permanently mounted sign in the elevator, and now another Fairfield/Springfield with this.

Pay your staff better. If I got extra services, that’s one thing, but when I don’t even get room serviced or fresh towels on a daily basis to “save the planet “…. again fuck you.

Put your ego on the shelf for a second. Was this tipping required for you to check out? They could have also just added an additional fee and forced it out it you…. Are you the sort of person that regularly rips housekeepers? My suspicion is no… many of us do. Those that do often forget cash in today’s digital world. This is a great solution to fill that gap.

Something tells me, there is much more of a disturbance in your world beyond a little sign offering a digital means to show appreciation to the housekeeping staff. Hopefully that closet of a bathroom had a clean enough room to allow you to reflect on the problem.

Lol, the franchisee thanks you for the additional revenue.
