Switching switches
Picture this: you wake up in the middle of the night and need to get up. You reach for the light switch but cannot remember if this is one that pushes in, toggles on, flips up and down or turns. Even in one hotel room, there can be a variety of options. Moving beyond the bedstand, there are lights that turn on only with a wall switch, step on switches, switch on a cord, switch on the stand, switch on the harp, etc. What a mess. Frequent travelers become adept at trying all options. But even better, I now carry a small flashlight so that I have a familiar light in the middle of the night!
