Thought I would tell a funny story from our Presidents Club trip a few weeks ago. Every day on the end of the hotel property you can see the beach vendors, they are not allowed on the property after 7AM, thus they have an encampment at the end of the hotel property where they show their wares.
I met Dr. Feelgood (aka Patrick) on the first day and spoke with him every day while I was there. He asked when I was leaving and he asked that I empty the my rooms courtesy refridge (stayed at an all inclusive), I stated that I would do that for him, however he was not going to get something for nothing and we would trade. He was cool with that.
The last morning I emptied the room of the spirits, soda's, beer and packages of tea. Packing them in a plastic bag and off I went to see Dr. Feelgood. As expected he was there, and he asked if I had did what he asked, I stated I did, however, I left goods on one of the beach chairs. But, I did ask, "is this ok to give you this stuff"? He assured me that there was "No problem man". Thus off I went to retrieve the bag of goodies and within moments I was at the end of the property negotiating a barter deal with Dr. Feelgood. That was until a hotel security guard stepped in and ruined a good thing, stating that Dr. Feelgood could not have those items because they were hotel property. Dr. Feelgood then stated to tell the security guard that I brought those items from home for him (lol) and the guard should leave him/us alone. With that Dr. Feelgood snatched the bag and off he went into the woods! The security guard was cool, just stated that they do want that sort of thing happening. I got my stuff, Dr. Feelgood got his stuff and I guess the moral of the story holds true for what my Father told me.
