Hotel glasses

From a 2012 NBC News interview with Jacob Tomsky, author of Heads in Beds, a book about the hotel business:

“Housekeepers are only provided with cleaners, so they’ll often put some hot water in the sink and put the mini-bar glasses in there with shampoo. Also, they want them streak-free, so they’ll often use some kind of furniture polish just to really get the shine there.”
