Don't Drink That!
Thanks to Mis for sending this video along. I used to travel for business and I always wondered about those glasses. Egad! Well, if you're the type of business man who likes his escorts, if you happen to catch the Herpes from one - rest assured knowing that you can now blame this, as the one health inspector listed it as something you could get from this.

Oh my God! I stayed at the Embassy Suites in Alpharetta, Ga in December of 2001.
I drank water and coffee from those nasty filthy glasses and cups. And guess what? I'm still alive and (far as I know right now) I don't have herpes!
American white people scare me. They are afraid of every germ ever discovered.
You notice not a single houskeeping person in that video was white? Know why? Cause they ain't afraid of a little god damn germ that's why!!!!
Natural selection, baby! Go ahead drink that glass of water. It'll give you the rush of cheating death better than Evil Kenivel jumping the Snake River Gorge!!!
Hey Stilladog....
I wonder how they wash the glasses at the National Hotel in Berlin PA?
dog, do you wash the glasses at your house after you and mrs dog drink out of them...or do you spray windex in them and turn them over? the point isnt that in 99/100 cases its ok, the point is - you have a reasonable right to think that the glass was f'ing cleaned when you are paying $180 a night for a room. she either went to the bathroom or cleaned the toilet with that glove on and then stuck it in the glass. i'm not cool with that if it was kate hudson that did it. i dont want the flu or anything else because consuelo didnt do her job the way she was properly trained to do it.
and come on....do you think after a big smelly fat disgusting business man leaves the room with a dirty glass, that the girl who cleaned the room "that isnt afraid of a germ", would clean that cup the way she did in the video and then SHE would drink out of it?????? i think not. would she want her kid to drink out of that cup? i think not. we're healthy guys with good immune systems, the elderly and toddlers are a totally different story. it would really suck if a kid contracted something because that lazy worker didnt do her job right.
Dad, you ever see how they wash glasses in a bar? One dunk in the soapsudsy water, one dunk in the rinse water. Sit on the side to dry. Over and over all night long, no changing the water. Real sanitary, right?
I don't wash the glasses at my house. We have a machine that does that. I cancelled my life insurance so Mrs. Dog will not be tempted to use Windex on them too.
Well, it's true the maid isn't afraid of the germ but she does have those big gloves on...
Looks to me like all the Consuelos are doing their job just like they are trained. They all are doing the same thing. Maybe a new training regimen should be in place to keep the gringo customers safe?
Hey, I got sick from unsanitary hotel rooms before. It was a free stay so I could use my $180 on Dr. visits. But it's just a hazard of travel. Like I could get killed on my way to work or I could break my leg walking through the parking lot. Maybe a Risk Assessment pro could chime in?
Hell, the drinking glasses are only the tip of the iceberg. You ever see the 60 minutes story where they analyzed the body fluid residue in hotel furniture and bedding? Urine, blood, semen, saliva, you name it. So what? Now you can't sit on the chair or sleep in the bed? Good. Then don't stay at the hotel and there is no problem.
It's these kind of stories that generate the lawsuits that clog our court systems in the short term and end up taking our personal freedoms away in the long run.

Now come on stilladog - we all know you got da herpes!!!!
You aren't fooling me.
And by the way Donde está el baño?
yes, i know the drill at a bar...but at LH there is sanitizer in the sink for the dipping. at the very least, i'm pretty sure the bartender didnt just clean the toilet! :)
and again, my main point i think is being missed, yes we shake hands and who knows whats on them and yeah the bed spread might have 6 moth old jizz involved....but we're not putting that in our body! we are drinking what's in the cup and that's still not my main point. my main point is....i have a reasonable right to assume that glass is clean as i am a new patron using the room. i know they dont wash the bed spread every night. i know not to shake the hand of the booger picker at work. when i am paying top doallar for a room, all i'm asking for is a clean freaking glass. there is no excuse or logic on earth to convince me that it's ok for consuelo to clean the glass with the rubber gloves on that she used to clean the toilet. i'm not arguing germs, how bad or good they are...nothing....no other risks, known or unknown....simply put - you can get everything from everyone. we can curb that a little and lessen the chances by doing so simple as to wash the glass. i'm sure an economist could relate the % of sickness, healthcare cost and missed work due to people getting a mild flu or bug from things such as this. everything has a cost.
Dog......
I'm not sure if they have running water in the bar at the National! We'll have to check when we go for a drink. (I drink from the bottle only)
