If he doesn't like our club he is welcome to wait in the terminal.

More than likely he dropped the food in the first place while laughing at his own stupid thoughts.

The man is not funny.

I can't say that I have ever had an issue with food stuck in between keys on the keyboards in the Qantas Lounges or any lounges for that matter.

I have seen the mess though that some people leave on the desk next to the PC's. :shock: I really feel sorry for them if this is how they live at home.

I had never heard of the name until this thread and then Googled to see who he was? Reading the first line of Google results was enough for me.
 
He is semi funny.

I think a lot of pax do treat the QP in a very untidy manner.

I hate seeing paper hand towels being left on the floor in the mens room. I feel obligated to use a fresh paper towel and pick them up.

s a courtesy to fellow passengers please wipe the basin after use.How about a sign near the basins like they have on board the aircraft?
 
I have to admit never coming across such low levels of cleanliness brought about by ignorant and selfish patrons.

Meat on the keyboard? That's just insane, and fancy the idiotic culprit not cleaning it up. Wouldn't you feel ashamed?

Is this why people prefer The Lounge? Because the QP / J Lounge is a breeding ground for swines, roaches and rats (and I'm not referring to the literal animals). What a world. :evil:

Although I wouldn't advocate actively against removing or not having the sign there, I find that 90% of the time it does not work.

Boss - people like myself are the culprits for the hand towels near the doors - and I have previously sent a letter to QF recommending they place an open bin near the door for these hand towels. I wash my hands after using the bathroom -call me different (!) because it would seem that quite a number of PAX don't. I do not want to put my hands on someone else's willy germs located on the door handle hence the use of a paper towel.

I have successfully managed to avoid HEP, general flu's and colds, ebola and other nasties most of my life - this could be due to the bugs getting into me then finding they can't survive in my blood/alcohol mix, or due to my insistence of not touching things that others have touched such as toilet door handles, escalator hand rails or the likes... I am not alone :shock:

A lot of what is discussed here is people coughing and moaning about the QP and QF so why does Wil Anderson get the "if you don't like it - get out treatment" coupled with a spurious comment that he was the actual culprit?

I saw him once on the way to the US and took an immediate dislike due to him reading Marvel rather than DC comics...

Completely agree. Just like how the sinks on aircraft toilets would still be gross despite the sign, if the FAs haven't gotten around to cleaning them (like during the post brekky, pre landing rush). And you'd think no instructions should be needed on such basic things ...:rolleyes:

Simon,

I find the guy offensive and some of the comments he has made during his career have pi%^ed me off to the point I now actively avoid any show that has him as a guest.

My small protest....hear me roar:oops:

Meat in a keyboard isn't appropriate. It shows poor hygiene from fellow passengers, and also highlights poor cleaning by Qantas.

To be fair I would not blame the staff. I think they do a reasonable job although it would appear that the lounges are understaffed. I spent several hours in the BNE Qantas Lounge a few weeks ago and noticed several staff come around regularly to clean up the PC area. When the PC is not used I have seem them clean the keyboard and place it upright against the screen.

I guess keyboards in the lounges would need to be professionally cleaned regularly to avoid these type of issues.

Also the eating habits of some people is disgusting. I don't know if this is how they behave at home but if it is then they must live in a pig sty....
 
I really feel sorry for them if this is how they live at home.

Wait until all those FIFO construction rockapes start ramping up and you'll see the Perth QP (or the KTA QP) slide downhill so fast, you won't know what hit you. I won't go into detail, but l've seen some lewd acts on site that would put the local Psychiatric ward as a 5 star resort, and these are grown men (as in, it was something involving a toilet cubical and fesices) doing the dirty stuff. Sickening.

He's not a celeb up my way. I have no idea who he is; but then again, I don't care.
 
The "fellow Pax" could have been a another celeb.

Celeb grossed out by Celeb - if that's possible.

Julian O'Neill type decorating?

The people that use the QF Lounge in Hi Vis gear are generally the Professionals and semi professionals. The general 'rock apes' take a while to get in there or show up just in time for that 0530 to Newman, Para, KTA or the 0620 to Hedland and don't seem to frequent the lounge too often (judging by the numbers downstairs in the morning). Never had a drama and find the people polite but not real chatty, but who is at that time of day?

I frequently wander into the QP at KTA and PER in Hi Viz orange mine shirt - I learned a few years ago to walk without dragging my knuckles on the ground, I found it was no good for my Tag watch...! - you are correct in your assumption that most Hi Viz people in the QP's (PAX) are professionals.

.......... due to my insistence of not touching things that others have touched such as toilet door handles, escalator hand rails or the likes... I am not alone :shock:

Mr!

No you're certainly not alone...in recent years I have taken to flying with a packet of wet wipes, which, much to the amusement of neighbouring pax, I use to wipe down the armrests, TV buttons etc. I also always take the table out and wipe it down. Once I stared doing this I noticed a marked decrease in getting colds etc... I also noticed just how disgustingly filthy the armrests and buttons are!

I don't believe it is possible to avoid everything. I have stopped trying. That bottle of beer you are drinking, that plate that you just grabbed in the lounge for food, the knife, the fork, the newspaper, the boarding pass, the pokie machine, the pen to sign the Amex receipt, the ATM, cars, taxis, trains. The list is endless.

How do you get in to the toilet in the first place? Did you shake anyone's hand? Do you know where that hand has been? You play golf in a golf buggy, grab flag sticks. As you get on the aircraft you brush past someone, accidentally make contact with other people's luggage etc etc.

If you want to avoid the flu then get the flu vaccine. I used to get the flu at least 3 times a year and since 1999 I have had it just twice. If want to avoid HEP then get the HEP vaccine. If you want to avoid ebola then stay away from Africa....
