Monitor dilemma

How do you guys deal with the fact that photos look drastically different when looked at on different monitors?

I've noticed that when I edit photos to look good on my Dell 2209WA IPS monitor, it looks too bright and washed out on my Toshiba laptop monitor and similarly it looks too dark and subdued if I process on the Toshiba.

As I don't print much and 99% of the world probably use poor quality TN monitors I often wonder whether I should PP on the laptop more, despite the fact it's way less "true" in colours and tones?
 
A laptop monitor will show completely different brightness & colours just by tiny adjustments of the angle of the screen - there is no way I would edit or proof on a laptop.
