Yep, I was a bit harsh I suppose.
Although, if this happened to someone and I heard about it by word of mouth,(or even through a less entitled post)I would immediately be sympathetic.
That said, the entire post is one long diatribe directed AT AirBnB as if it's their fault for not hand-combing literally every renter's reviews for validity.
He gambled and got burned, he's guaranteed up to a million USD so as far as I'm concerned, eat your loses and move on; don't blame the company that was both making you under the table money AND is about to pay you 90k in damages.
- Kequc 13y agoIs the money really under the table? Isn't that illegal, aren't there people putting a stop to that? Anyway, the part of the article that confused me was why he repeatedly said he can't look the doorman in the eye anymore. That can only be if you did something wrong. Maybe everyone in this story is doing something wrong except the door guy.
- ZoF 13y agoHey, sorry, my wording was a bit stupid there. What I meant by under the table wasn't "without taxes", but rather "without your landlords consent/against the terms of your lease". Sorry about that, the understood meaning of under the table is definitely "without paying taxes", so 100% my fault. AirBnB does pay federal and local taxes, when the state gets on them to do so :).
