That is where the people who deliver our grubhub orders live. $150/week for 5 x 8 room with a plastic covered twin mattress.

I do bro, especially in crappy ass weather and I do cash so they don't get taxed on it. Still a tough ass job.

I think it’s funny how people brag about abetting tax fraud.

I’m not judging you—I do it, too—but it’s funny when you think about it. I would never underreport my income to the IRS, yet I’m happy to help others do it.

> abetting

not bragging I was clarifying that I do tip and spare me the self-righteous bullcrap. the service industry is freaking soul sucking, go after all those jerkoffs who took out covid loans and never needed them or didn't use them on the things they were supposed to.

I edited a bit to clarify, because I realized how judgmental it came off originally. No judgment intended. I do it too.

fair enough then, I see people get upset about that crap and it blows my mind about the focus on the cut of a finger vs the gunshot wound scenario.

I’d certainly like to see everyone taxed fairly on their actual income, with zero tax fraud, but caring about servers underreporting a few thousand dollars in tips a year is stupid when billionaires are doing the same thing on a much larger scale.

Not even breh, that looks lowkey nice. The flooded basements where people die every hurricane is where they’re at.

Sure. Those are the $110 rooms. Damp concrete floor. Walls like a storage unit. The one in this photo might be a $1200 1 bedroom apartment with a living room.
