[QUOTE="hurleyjd, post: 1515270, member: 4674"] 23 years ago I was working contract at the airport in Waco. Found a cheap motel and stayed there one week. One of the production workers was staying at the Waco Sands Motel and I moved there and stayed four weeks and then the contract job ended. It was being managed by Mr. and Mrs. Patel which I got to know and could talk and discuss things with them. They had two childred a Son aand Daughter that had graduated at the head of thier class in High school and was going to Baylor and had plans to become Doctors. Mr. Patel told me that he and his wife did not own the Motel but managed it for somone from Lubbock Texas. He also said that their goal in life was to see that thier childrend were well educated and could succed in life. I think I was paying something like 27 dollars a week. I was working the second shift and he noticed that I came in about one each night. He asked if he could turn the air off in the room during the day and would turn it back on about eleven each night. The last week I was there he noticed me coming in with my laundry and rushed out to ask what did that cost. I told him and he said that just leave it in the room and his wife would do it for an extra five dollars a week. But the job was over and I came back to my home in East Texas. [/QUOTE]
