Thanks for the insight nonetheless.

I didn't know a thank you card after an interview was considered a mandatory thing. Is that true?

"...one of your most valuable business resources is your wife." That's the objectifying part imo.... Would you disagree?

But she still has to pay it back in the end, so why would the 7 year payment plan matter?

Wow, yeah, seems like it was. I still would like to see someone that ridiculous operate... Sounds like the most incompetent architect/engineer I have ever heard of. Sorry for the snark fellow human.

Ahhhh, gotcha gotcha, rereading it I completely see what your point was. In fact I'm pretty embarrassed to not have parsed your meaning the first time, my initial thought was just that I had misused the phrase in some way.

This post really bothers me somehow. Edit: Figured out why. I don't understand why saying, "people will call me sexist for this" immediately validates your statement as "not intended to be sexist". >"

Heh, you've basically avoided fully answering this question twice, possibly because it wasn't properly phrased. Let me give it one more shot. What was _your_ reasoning for losing a job over a completely semantic argument? Did the

Isn't that how I used it?

You don't think classifying the vast majority of this readership as victim-blaming sexists would qualify as slightly inconsiderate?

His location is listed as California, so that wouldn't make much sense. The current top poster actually figured out the exact issue in this case.

Yeah, I found that to be the oddest part; that after so much bullshit, that was the last straw. It was almost too anti-climatic of an ending to this sexism/crazy-founder/wife tale. Agreed though, completely 100% justified in getti

Yep, honestly I just hope GitHub makes a response sooner rather than later. The longer this festers before we get a counterpoint the worse it will be. Also hope it doesn't turn into the mud-slinging it seems to be headed towards.

I've always been fond of an errant "plebian" myself.

It's not necessarily a loophole given that her credit score is dinged. It's like fouling in soccer, she broke the rules got a yellow card, was it worth it?

> You presume too much about other people. Really, do I? I hope I never take a loan in my life, doesn't mean I can't comprehend that the vast majority of Americans with an income greater than 50K a year rely on loans for their

He never so much as implied that he was talking about this specific instance.

What? The sexist part of this isn't the Founder's Wife's behavior(that sounds standard crazy), it's everyone at Github's behavior. /* Let me preface this by saying we have only seen half the story at this point

by ZoF 13y ago
Completely agree, for the proportion of the population that doesn't take loans ever this certainly seems to make some sense. I'm just saying that, imo, for the vast majority of Americans the ability to get a loan is more important

Exactly. The reason this vertical hasn't been disrupted in this manner is the inherent liability of dealing with humans. An institution like a hotel chain can both: -React to a situation like this immediately instead of letting it play

Hey, 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 understo

Have you tried rehabilitating your loan?

Yeah, I grokked the point, and I strongly disagree with the conclusion. For anyone with a graduate degree that's competent in their field the chances of going 4+years jobless is pretty low. And I would assert that if you get a (well-pa

Hmm, I meant that in the context of a legitimate sublease, although the second half of that sentence does strongly imply I was referring to this stay as a valid use case. You'd get liability coverage from some plans at least. Honestly,

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

Agreed, that is rather bizarre, especially considering the, "What Countries is this available in" section is quite difficult to miss.

I don't see how this is AirBnB's fault, at least to the degree that's implied. You rented out your apartment to a stranger on the internet based upon what other strangers on the internet said about them. You almost certainly
