In my experience over the last two years hotels are either same price OR less expensive due to AirBnBs bait and switch pricing. The taxes, cleaning fees, and random add ons are absurd.

In a recent example, staying at some Yurt for three days was $248. After taxes and fees it was around $515. Like wtf?!

I’m at the point where even if the pricing was flat, a hotel is 10X less hassle to deal with than AirBnB.

Yeah there is zero chance the poster is from the US or anything that isn’t a major city. Electric cars aren’t perfect but they are a hell of a lot better than an ICE.

Wait what? I know exactly zero men who walk around with a satchel. Only time I use a backpack is when I’m going to work or going to the airport or something. Otherwise it’s a wallet all the way. All my other guy friends are the same.

As someone who works in HR, odds are it’s c-suite calling the shots and shifts the blame. We’ve been trying to make our CEO understand why parental leave is important. Presented studies, numbers, the whole gamut but he thinks it’s a way for people to get out of work and too costly. Then turns around, and decides all the execs need to get concierge benefits, all because he had to cancel his derm appt last minute. Benefit is twice the cost that parental leave would be. Fuckers are so out of touch.
