I prefer taking trips with my extended family every year.
Typically, my good friend and I visit a National Park or travel abroad, but this year, my good friend and I decided to try something different, then nobody felt like traveling far, so my good friend and I decided to book a lodge for five evenings… I was absolutely gleeful for the family trip, but things took a turn rapidly.
The thing about my family is that my good friend and I all prefer strange uneven temperatures at evening. Usually, the control unit is always changed whenever someone has a moment alone with it. This time though, it wasn’t possible & it created chaos. The lodge was so giant that there were 3 zones with 3 separate control units. The owners of the house insisted that all 3 control units remain at the same temperature. If one was changed, then the 2 other zones would fight to keep up & the Heating, Ventilation, & A/C system would run always. There was one control unit upstairs, one downstairs, & one in the primary ensuite. Nobody could change the control unit settings without communicating it, which created a large problem. Nobody could agree on a temperature for the lodge & a large fight broke out. When someone tried to adjust all 3 control unit settings, they’d get caught & someone else would become defensive about the temperature. It was so bad & I thought some family members were going to leave completely. Thankfully, nobody genuinely left, after the trip though, my extended family vowed to never book a holiday rental with several zoned control units because it wouldn’t end well!
