If You See Something…

Last week, the evening before speaking at the RSA Conference in San Francisco, we saw a large black suitcase sitting by the main entrance of the Courtyard Marriott. It appeared to have been left behind by an unfortunate traveler.
We walked up to the front desk to let the hotel know. “Oh,” sighed the Marriott employee. “We get that all the time.”
Apparently, as part of the Marriott’s design theme, the hotel had installed realistic sculptures of unattended personal items all over the ground floor.
Out front there were two lonely suitcases, each left beside a different bench near the valet. Inside, there were a couple more suitcases, an outdated cell phone and a wallet on the bar.
Obviously a pre-9/11 design concept…




LOL. How odd!
I think if I was an employee at that hotel about the time someone asked me that for the millionth time, I’d put in my two-weeks notice! Must have been some kind of whack job with too much time on his hands and a vendetta against hotel employees who came up with that design. Ranks right up there with fake dog poop and vomit.
