On my first trip to meet the corporate overlords (a month after they hired me), I was given a choice of two hotels. One was cheaper but a half-mile away; the other was adjacent to the office but was 25% more expensive. Being obsessed with the financial well-being of our shareholders as I am, I chose the cheaper hotel.
Never again.
The time used in the half-mile walk in direct sunlight wasn't pleasant. Walking past the other hotel choice twice per day just rubbed in further that I chose badly. I haven't made that mistake since.
