Wally's Two Cents


Wally (in the photograph above) mentioned to me that our friend and colleague Marty (the DU Bookstore's Textbook Manager) will soon be heading to Chicago for training at the contract management company's headquarters in Oak Brook, Illinois.  Wally told me that if he were staying in Chicago, he would only accept staying at the Drake Hotel on North Michigan Avenue.  I agreed, and suggested that he tell Marty to demand that he stay at the Drake, and have the company provide a limo to take him back and forth to Oak Brook each day.  There is nothing like gettting up in the morning in your suite at the Drake, watching the sun rise over Lake Michigan, and then after a hearty breakfast, reading your paper and drinking your coffee as the limo speeds you to your meeting.  As a matter of fact, if the company says no, I would just tell them to go to hell, and walk away.  Just a helpful suggestion, Marty!
