It’s the dumbest fricking line of thinking. As someone who wakes up at 5. I don’t think I’ve ever cared when someone else woke up.

I’m always up before my wife. The only time I ever wake her up is if she’s gonna be late for something. Even then it’s gentle.

When we have children they can sleep as late as they want. They are kids.
I’m 33 so not the demographic asked. But I don’t nap. Can’t even nap when I’m sick. Had the flu and I’m pretty sure my inability to nap is what kept me sick for longer.

Even if I’m dog arse tired and didn’t sleep the night before, something in my brain will not let me fall asleep before 730 PM at the earliest.

Even as a kid I couldn’t nap. If I fell asleep during the day I’d be out for minimum 4 hours.

It sucks. There are days I’d love to take a nap.
Go northwest.

Not like that most places.

It’s a fantastic thing to do.

Most people here are terrified to go anywhere other than pigeon forge for a week so maybe not the best group to ask.

She should do it. It will teach her a lot about the world. She can try for as long as she wants. If it doesn’t work out she can always relocate somewhere else and try again. That’s the beauty of this country and life in general.

People in this state are largely afraid of change.
I suppose I’d fall into your office worker category.

I wasn’t a plumber, but I worked manual labor jobs before going back to school.

There’s no way I would ever go back to that life. You deal with too much shite. Too many assholes pissed off at the world. Too much exhausting work. Too many people looking down on you. Did it from age 19 to 28. 9 years. It’s shite work.

We don't ask guests to clean dishes, and we charge a small cleaning fee, but leaving a hotel or Airbnb with a sink full of dishes is just a dick move.


No. It isn't a dick move. You aren't my relatives, you aren't my friends. The transaction is me lodging for a few days. Cleaning is included. I've never stayed in an air bnb that didn't have a cleaning fee.

That's part of staying in a short term rental. You're charging me a cleaning fee. You clean the dishes. I'm not there to do dishes. I'm there to stay in a place.

Again, I don't stay in Air BnBs for this exact reason. I go to hotels where it's clear that the business owners have enough sense to not piss of their guests.

I don't care what you do. I'm telling you that you're wrong. Do with that info what you will.
Thank god.

You shouldn’t. If you’re going to request that your guests clean your short term rental, you aren’t capable of running a short term rental.
Nope. I just understand the value of what I’m getting.

You sound lazy by implying that if you were the owner of an air bnb you wouldn’t do your job.

Lazy.

you sound like the bitch that OP is complaining about.


No because I have enough processing power to realize that air bnbs aren’t worth it.

I don’t complain about these sorts of things when I lodge. I just go elsewhere.
This is crazy to expect your guest to clean up after themselves. You’re trying to convince people that this is the normal way of being. It’s not.

The onus of cleanliness in short term rentals has always been on the property manager. Not the guest. The guest can’t tear the property up. That’s it.

The real issue is that you people want a quick buck without doing your job. If I shite on the floor, that’s on me. If I damage the property, that’s on me. If I leave dirty dishes in the sink, that’s your job. That’s why I’m paying you the money. Clean it up.
False equivalency. Not even close to the same thing.

There’s a social contract that exists with shopping carts. The social contract that exists with lodging is on the manager of the property. Not the guest.
Well I’m not going to stay home.

I’m going to a hotel.

People itt bitching about a specific demographic of people making requests. You’re catering to them. The demographic you’d like has turned back to hotels. I’m not doing your fricking chores.
Hotels don’t ask me to upkeep the property while I’m there.

They understand that normal wear and tear occurs.

Someone above just said “all” they say is to take the trash to the curb.

I don’t work here. I’m not taking your fricking trash to the curb. I’m not doing the dishes. Im not vacuuming. I’m not doing any of that shite.
I’m not putting trash cans anywhere.

frick you.
Nope. Never said anything of the sort.

I mentioned Air BnBs.

Holy Jesus it is out of control. We own and manage some airbnbs.

They're just playing your game.

Air BnBs used to be my go to. Now anyone with a second property who doesn't have the gall to actually manage their property uses it to steal money.
Saying that people who call people trashy are normally trashy is trashy.
