And trying to put a snug fitting fitted sheet on the mattress doesn't save much of the bending and work involved either. Add in that most hotels use queen or king sized beds, requiring a whole lot of that bending/tugging/lifting and running from side to side that a flat sheet would, even if a fitted sheet is used.<br /><br />As Shakespeare put it so well, this legislation is "full of the sound and fury, signifying nothing."ProfKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17954446826821665314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096776708897685863.post-58447032670675418532011-08-21T13:56:12.173-04:002011-08-21T13:56:12.173-04:00Thanks for the link:)
Sorry for damaging your wee...Thanks for the link:)<br /><br />Sorry for damaging your weeks positive beginning :(<br /><br />From what I understood the main reason for the legislation is that using flat sheets can hurt the backs of the people making the beds. The bills sponsors mother used to be a hotel maid, so 'its an issue dear to his heart'.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096776708897685863.post-67769081957304553782011-08-21T10:17:58.634-04:002011-08-21T10:17:58.634-04:00frum single female,
The legislation refers only to...frum single female,<br />The legislation refers only to the sheet covering the mattress. Apparently they consider that putting a flat sheet on a mattress is an OSHA problem--Occupational Safety Hazzard. But since they did not vote to get rid of the sheet under the blanket, whoever is making the bed will still need to tuck a flat sheet under that mattress along with the blanket.ProfKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17954446826821665314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096776708897685863.post-66032442140397513582011-08-21T09:53:24.047-04:002011-08-21T09:53:24.047-04:00Does this mean there will be no fitted sheets unde...Does this mean there will be no fitted sheets under the blankets but over the bottom fitted sheets? If so this is really gross. Good thing i don't plan on travelling anywhere any time soon, otherwise i will have to be bringing by own fitted sheets.frum single femalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01592899863773572708noreply@blogger.com
