El Presidente Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Set off the fire alarms again last night in the hotel. Love the serviced apartments here but by God I can't cook toast without raining that shrill alarm hell. Presented this morning with my final warning Two options. Take the ken Gargett approach and sue!!!!!! .....or roll over. I rolled. I now have 6 meals in the fridge of "Lean Cuisine". I assume the microwave will be friendlier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wea1959 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Just make sure you heat them on a metal plate, it makes the cleanup much easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Gargett Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Set off the fire alarms again last night in the hotel.

Take the ken Gargett approach and sue!!!!!! .....or roll over. I rolled. I now have 6 meals in the fridge of "Lean Cuisine". I assume the microwave will be friendlier who have i ever sued? amazing how the threat of it does enable the engendering of a situation of productive dialogue and consensual compromise where all relevant parties are given the opportunity to rearrange their views to align with that most appropriate - ie, mine. and given the number of salads you've dodged, a little lean cuisine may not be all that out of order. yes, pot kettle.

GodofFire Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 I say screw them and their last warning. Test the waters and see what they do. Cook up some more toast and let us know if they truly meant it was your last warning or not... ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davidsan Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 I live in an apartment building and we get at least 5-6 fire alarm call outs every few weeks the vast majority being burnt toast or steak. The worst are early morning 5:30-6am on a Sunday morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuzz Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Riiiight. Yep. Take out tomorrow night. I'll bring some booze. Try not to get kicked out of this one, eh? It's getting hard to drop in when you say I'm at the usual place, but then I find out when I'm there, you got banned 3 weeks before... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuzz Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 I'm telling ya, Rob. Time to start looking at the real estate pages and find yourself a small studio apartment. Then you can set the alarms off as often as you like! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

... Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Were you making toast while having a Siglo VI inside? That could have set the alarm... How does one get banned from so many hotels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warren Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 I told you, cling wrap the smoke alarm. Problem solved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stanislaw Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 I have a sensitive smoke detector in my apartment, whenever I use the stove I have to climb up onto a chair and disconnect it from the wall... I know that's not an option for you, I just feel your pain is all..... The worst is if it ever goes off for a real fire I'm probably so desensitized that I'll sleep through it...

BBS Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 The smoke detectors in our new home are extremely sensitive....overly so. We can't broil a steak without it going off...we call it "the dinner bell"..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
