Bathroom Attendants... what do you think of them??

Re: Bathroom Attendants... what do you think of them??

I don't mind bathroom attendants, but I HATE the tip jar, especially at a wedding or catered affair. I am going to make sure that there will be no tip jars in the bathrooms on my wedding day, even if it means that I have to pay the hall a little bit extra.

Re: Bathroom Attendants... what do you think of them??

my hall doesn't have them

Re: Bathroom Attendants... what do you think of them??

I feel uncomfortable-I wouldn't have them either.

Re: Bathroom Attendants... what do you think of them??

I don't mind having them there as long as they don't have the tip jar out. I'm going to have to check with my hall. Thanks for bringing this up or it is something I wouldn't have thought of.

For the Hamlet Willow Creek'rs'.... we had no bathroom attendants during our wedding.

hmmm....i think they are 'great' cause they give you a towel BUT why should i have to tip people when i go to the bathroom!!!!

Honestly, I think it's nice to have them. I've been places plenty of times when people can't bother to flush the toilet or they tinkle on the seat and leave it. I think when peole stop being slobs, they won't have attendants anymore.

The attendants definitely make me feel uncomfortable. I never know how much I am supposed to tip and how often I am supposed to tip. I definitely would not want a tip jar out - Does anyone know if east wind does this??

Re: Bathroom Attendants... what do you think of them??

I hate them, and I would hate for my guests to feel like they should have brought thier wallets to my reception. Plus, their little baskets of goodies always looks sorta messy (if not tacky).

Re: Bathroom Attendants... what do you think of them??

I definitely do not like the tip jar being out. I honestly had not thought of this before. Now I have one more thing to consider when selecting my hall!

Re: Bathroom Attendants... what do you think of them??

If you are worried about tipping, leave your bag at the table so you obviously have no place to hold money.

Re: Bathroom Attendants... what do you think of them??

hate 'em. they make me very uncomfortable and they make me feel like i have to pay to pee because i never know when/how much/how often to tip. not sure if this is something milleridge does, but i will definitely request their absence.

Re: Bathroom Attendants... what do you think of them??

We have it in our contracts that no tip jars are allowed - for the bathroom attendants, coat check and bartenders. Sooooo tacky. But we are having 1 attendant for both the men's and women's bathroom - to clean up any messes and to refill, etc. Make sure the place looks neat.

Re: Bathroom Attendants... what do you think of them??

i really dont think that i would want them if i had the choice. they really just stand there and do nothing.

Re: Bathroom Attendants... what do you think of them??

i don't like them at all. i also don't like valet parking. i hate anyone having access to my car and not being able to hold onto my own keys. i can park my own car thanks i don't need help.

I think if you don't have an attendant whose going to keep the place tidy. I go to weddings all the time where women tinkle on the seat can't bother to hit the garbage pail with the napkin after they wash their hands, then the bathroom is a mess.You can easliy have them use one attendant for both bathrooms. You don't have to but it would be nice to give her a little something when it's over. They don't have to hang out in the bathroom the whole time if it really bothers you.

Re: Bathroom Attendants... what do you think of them??

I don't like them at all. I don't need anyone to squirt soap in my hand or hand me a paper towel. I am very capable. They are really not worth it IMO.
