Hey you might not read this since it’s a reply, but John Oliver does a pretty good job also! Last Week Tonight on HBO but they also post all their main stories on youtube.

Haha yes sometimes the housekeeping team does have fun with the towels and that’s probably more for them then you really. It’s a good creative outlet on slower days.

I manage a hotel and while this would be a small help towards marketing, you’re just gonna forget about that duck in when you get home. Maybe you post it on social media or tell a couple friends. Really I am way more interested in the positive impact a small gift like this has with guest satisfaction scores and guest/staff engagement. I bet tons of people talk to the front desk about the cute duck which might give us a chance to recommend a good restaurant or solve a minor issue the guest might not have mentioned to us. It’s a unique ice breaker to start a relationship between the staff and the guest which is incredibly important for achieving high guest service scores.

I’ll shit on Elon all day, but pretty sure Bill Gates is just a nice dude who retired and just wants to do shit to help out at this point. I watched some documentary where they followed him around for a few weeks and he was just so focused on people not having water and working toilets in Africa. I mean I guess these days anything can be called propaganda, but that guy keeps to himself and helps people.
