The Franklin list

Is the hotel the good life or not?

Good
Free breakfast every morning- they cook and do the dishes and shopping
free maid service-- make the beds, clean linen and towels,vacuum and dust-Bathroom too
free dinner 4 nights a week- they cook, do the dishes and shopping- plus provide a monthly menu
all utilities included
someone else shovels
3 beds, 3 TVs and 2 full bathrooms
free handyman for all repairs
sweet pool
free drinks, free fruit and hot cookies at 7


Bad
you can smell everything that everyone cooks all day long
no garage so you have to warm up your car and scrap it--- car washes do not last long
you can hear the upstairs and next doors doors shut, toilets flush and shower water
there is constant movement in the hallways
If you need to clean or vacuum there is nothing to use so you have to wait for someone to do it for you
doesn't matter the time, the maid comes to clean as you are getting in the shower
people don't stop by- the neighbors constantly change
have to use a laundry mat for your wash
heavy drapes on all windows so you never see the sun or know the time
2 windows that look out to nothing

I guess it is a wash. If we did not have to be here, we'd love it. But since we have no other place to go, it kind of is boring. My brother thinks it is the good life but even the good life gets old fast and there is no place like home
