Bring Your Own Thermostat.
The most recent episode in FBCoachSC®'s housing experience took him back to one of his first jounge memories. Installing his nest thermostat. But this time, the legend himself is un-installing his nest to he can bring it with him to his new digs that hes never going to actually own because of family drama.
So last night, after he removed the nest from the wall and all of the wires from the device, he attempts to wire up his old honeywell thermostat as a parting gift for the new owners. Except he doesn't know how to wire it up and the AC starts blowing hot air.
You cannot make this #### up. I told him that the jounge would get together and buy him a new nest for the new trap house, but he didn't seem too keen about that idea because his wife tells him what to do.

Just the mental picture.....dumps his bag on the bed and out falls....... the two TV remote batteries, hand towels, hotel sink glasses, soap, shampoo bottles, notepad and cheap pen, and whatever else he could find.
Tell me I'm wrong for having this mental picture......but it's basically my grandfather, 40 years later.

could come up with more as well.
He would order the child's plate at restaurants. I shichuknot. At Denny's. Parents took him on a trip to Vegas, and of course we stayed at Caesars, and ate at fancy restaurants. Was funny watching him. He lived through the depression though, and while not as cheap as him, I save where I can.

There is honor in the thrift of taking everything reasonable, and sometimes unreasonable from the room. But hoarding crap from the cart in the hallway is a step too far. You have to draw the line somewhere.
