The worst phrase on wall street

^ you shouldn't expect an analyst to know how to do something if you don't yourself... I do agree with the latter part though. I use this phrase when it's either too simple that I feel the analyst should be able to figure it out or when I don't have time/want to think about it right now.

How many points? Caribbean Marriott Cat 3 property, 5 nights. They have an issue with the boiler so no hot water and shower stops in between. Ice cold showers for 4 days in a row 🥶. Hotel phones don’t work because network is down and only local channels work on tv. Last night they had a huge leak in the lobby. They kept knocking stuff all night to fix it and then left a large floor fan running. I understand it’s tough reopening so don’t want to push, plus they upgraded our room at check in.
