They’re Letting Sick Employees Work
The stakes may be high regarding COVID, but apparently, the economic stakes when it comes to employees are even higher for hotels. Even when they go against CDC guidelines!
According to NBC, At the Holiday Inn LAX, when an employee told her boss that she had a headache and body aches, she was given the day off to take a COVID test but continued working until she received her positive result. How could something like this happen?
Well, research shows that many businesses are struggling to find and maintain employees due to the pandemic. While there isn’t much you can do about other people’s actions or inactions.
You should regularly wash your hands and engage in proper social distancing whenever you’re not in your hotel room.

OMG – I quit my job and have taken the summer off to travel. The Quality Inn in Tyler TX has been the most disgusting hotel I have every stayed at. Bugs, flys, roaches, no pool, dirty, door didn’t close properly, safety issues, horrible and gross complementary breakfast. I wrote to the company and told them they really needed to fix that hotel. It’s not fair the Stagg have to work in that environment.
When I stay in a hotel/motel I bring along my can of Lysol and spray it on toilets, remote controls sinks and bathtub or shower floors. It may sound extreme, but after reading about housekeeping unprofessional lazy cleaning I’ll protect myself from infectious diseases. Housekeeping used to be a high standard of cleanliness. I’ve witnessed after covid was so called over, a housekeeping employee was not wearing gloves cleaning toilets and making up beds. Yikes!!
When Covid hit I purchased a hand held uv lite for about $70 from Amazon and ran it over the tv remote remote and and all touchable surfaces.
You are absolutely right to carry an anti-bacterial spray. When I travel I do the same thing. I spray everything until all surfaces are damp, then leave the room for a couple of hours because the fumes are overwhelming. Additionally, I never use the furniture drawers even though I spray them as well.
I carry spray Lysol and a can of Hot Shot bedbug spray. You know that mattresses are infrequently cleaned or changed; most of the time a mattress stays until it’s too late and bedbugs are visible.
No surprise. Unclean carpets, sheets, linens, etc. invite BEDBUGS which can adhere to you or your clothing, go home, and infect everything you have. Local health inspectors are few and far between.
