Protect the Juice!
Monday morning I was in the President's Club (Termanial C North). Went to get juice, and couldn't find it. Looked all over the counter and still didn't see it. So I went to the bar and asked where it was. With a roll of his eyes, the bartender said it was kept back of the bar now. I told him it didn't make sense to me. He just nodded agreement. So he poured a small styrofoam coffee cup full for me. Later I went back for a refill and joined the line of folks waiting for service. He was making several margaritas and the "juicers" had to wait.
Now why can't President Club patrons pour their own juice. Has a barrel of juice gotten as high as the fuel? I actually like it when I am in a Terminal that has a NW club. You can fill your own soda, mix your own drink, grab a can out of the refrigerator. And the snacks are better.

So this is why I couldn't find the OJ at the IAH PC a couple weeks ago? How lame.

I think you'll find the Juice in LAS county jail. 
Sorry, couldn't help myself.

It was out in the open at the IAH E club last Friday and again yesterday morning. And it's been out at the ATL club recently too.

This all happened Monday morning. The agents at the front told me they got an email that morning telling them of the change. They handed me a comment card and asked me to express my views. She said they are read and taken seriously. Maybe they got enough to convince them it was not a wise move and changed them back to the counter on Tuesday.

I was in the IAH B club today (10/14) and still a hand-written sign saying see the bar for juice. Maybe they have not got the memo over at B yet.
