Remote =/= Key

Remote =/= Key

Other MOD handed me one of our TV remotes this morning.

Other MOD: "This is from room 1XX."
Me: "What's wrong with it?"
Other MOD: "Nothing. The guest just checked out. He left his key in the room and grabbed the remote instead by accident."

Bonus: Hubby BB

Hubby was talking on the phone the other day. He started flipping couch cushions around and was clearly looking for something.

Me: "Whatcha looking for?"
Hubby: "I can't...where's my phone?"
Me: silent. He'll figure it out eventually.

Unless you've got those new-fangled "Keyless entry" rooms, eh? Those are so useful when your hands are full. Just point the remote at the door, and it unlocks for you.

Wait.


...

Those are cars.

Some people are just stupid.

Was it a TV remote? I guess it can be thought that they would safeguard the TV remotes in the same way they do keys, because you can steal the TV remotes as easily as you would a pillow. Sometimes they don't attach the remote to the nightstand between the beds. Keys are smaller than remotes, so...

I've done that once. But then I've also done the same with my keys.
