nothing better than stealing a continental breakfast :)
    #7676798 - 11/25/07 02:57 AM (16 years, 2 months ago)

ill share one of my little nomad secrets with you all...

so many times i have been driving all night, and then seen the sun come up... it was time for breakfast...

so i found the nearest hotel, walked in the front door, and helped myself to a morning paper, a cup of coffee, and whatever breakfast they had available, which often times was damn good!

the continental breakfast hustle i call it.

and i always get away with it, primarily because 99% of the time the people working at the hotel front desk are fresh on the clock, not knowing who actually stays at the hotel, and secondly, and probably most importantly, the employees too underpaid to even care.

In such times as ours however, when there is too much order, too much m management, too much programming and control, it becomes the duty of superior men and women and women to fling their favorite monkey wrenches into the machinery. To relieve the repression of the human spirit, they must sow doubt and disruption"

Free pizza of your choice for tea...

Most pizza firms have a big metal bin out back where they chuck away pizza's that are not wanted.

All you have to do is ring up and order whatever free pizza you want.  Tell them you will be there in half an hour to collect it.  Wait an hour then goto the bin and collect your order.

Our pizza firm chucked them away in the boxes and there was nothing horrible in the bins that could possibly contaminate the pizza.

Although I've never done it myself (the 'continental breakfast hustle') I have thought about using it if I need to. I have stayed in a lot of hotels for my work and I always choose one that has the free breakfast. If you choose wisely many of them have a hot buffet-style breakfast now, not just the old muffin-n-juice combo. Of the Nationwide chains my favorite would be Holiday Inn Express. Hit 'em up sometime.

Pizza dumpsters are often crawling with rats. Big ones. When I worked at pizza hut, I was scared to go out there at night. Dozens of rats were waiting for their dinners when I took out the leftover dough.

Even when I was hiking the AT, nearly flat broke, I was man enough to pay for my own breakfast.

I've always had a few names for people who thought this was cute and none of them are very nice.

I enjoy going to a fancy restaurant, racking up a huge bill and then vanishing without paying dues.  I call it the beggars can be choosers hustle.

Oh, well that's different, at least you are robbing fine foods and not nasty imitation eggs and dry bagels from Holiday Inn.

:lol:  Funny, but I hope you are kidding...    Y'know they make the servers pay for those meals.  Even at cheap restaurants like Dennys.  I worked at IHOP and it got to the point where one table every night would skip on the bill.  As their server I had to pay for it, so I was losing nearly half my wage to people who skip on bills.  Then I refused to pay, so I lost my job.

Yeah that's true I have done this like over 50 times, we used to do it everyday at a different place. But then I did kinda start feeling bad for them, because the servers have to pay for it. The first place we started was IHOP, funny you mention that.
