I am guessing you earn 100% of the profit of the cleans of your own room listing. You earn it. You work to clean, and you earn it. So that is a good thing.
Any margin above what is paid to the cleaner directly is still called ‘Earned income’ but is for my work. Having a five bedroom house, there is a lot more admin work to arrange cleaning schedules, supply runs and to manage laundry that might be left in machines drying, or guest lost property. This is all part of cleaning after a stay. There is no shame in getting paid for working, but if you would like to offer your host cleaning fees to charity, that might be nice - because not everyone is hosting to make money ![]()
I think you mean derogatory… but is this what you mean below?
I’m guessing as you are over 80 yrs, your mother likely isn’t around anymore, but if she was - would she really be happy to see you write such derogatory comments in a personal attack? I have to say it feels a bit like Baby Reindeer to have you as one of the most prolific posters on every one of my threads like a stalker, focussing on personal attacks instead of adding value to the hosting debate and just always there lol… It was a great show though - I loved it, just didn’t know I might be living it here though!
I am very open with my full name, my photo, my listings, my YT channel, because I believe in transparency and accountability in a professional hosting forum. Can you share your own listing so we know who you are? I am guessing you prefer to stay private though, under a fake profile name and no profile photo. You may only have a small Airbnb operation with a quiet room, but you have experience and good things to offer. Chasing me repeatedly through every post I make with derogatory comments is stalking behaviour, directly against the terms of the site - and is just spamming the forum and making it harder for other posters to get information about different ways operations are run, calendars are synced, cleaning arranged and so on.
Not sure about your political reference either lol I’m not eligible to vote and don’t even remember which party he’s with. Why would anyone care what politics a host is - it’s just more spam.
I see you have suggested I am a troll, yet I’m really only replying on my own posts. So I appreciate your enthusiasm and desire to be the ‘most prolific’ contributor on my threads - however can you see the irony of a fake name/photo/hidden listing poster calling out me for replying on my own thread? If you spent more time writing your own thread, and being positive - and not making every post a boring personal attack, there might be more productive debate here. I’d delete your personal attack posts if this was supported, but sadly not in this forum, and there isn’t active moderation here to address forum violators either.
So let’s go back to focusing on the Forum topics and hosting tips, and make this a good site, and not some weird internet cesspit of personal attacks. I’d welcome any positive and constructive comments you have, else perhaps you are not welcome on my threads and suggest you focus energy on helping hosts, not attacking them - presumably only because you don’t like how they arrange cleaning or something.
I’d be curious to know why though - you certainly are relentless lol… surely you have more positive things to do, or positive comments to make? Life is good. We don’t need to make it harder for others - and I am thinking more other users of this site. I have thick skin and type fast, so it is a bit annoying, but I guess it’s just the internet for you… there are all sorts on it. Now … back to work for me!
