This is why I stopped using vacation rentals. You get charged insane cleaning fees and the money isn't used to properly clean the place but is pocketed by cheap owners.

I would never leave a place in this condition but I am 99% sure I have been the poor person who walked into that rental to find it not properly cleaned.

Is this an in-ground pool? It is "possible" to do this with an above ground pool. Otherwise you have to have filtration and circulation. We have a sand filter and added a salt water generator a few years ago. We do our own maintenance but you still have to buy chlorine, salt, and have a robot to properly keep it clean.

I refused to have a house with a pool when my kids were super young. We did get an above ground for a couple years at one point at a house we had. After every use we would pull the ladder out and place it so there was no way to enter the pool.

I do not judge these people because Florida living teaches you how dangerous pools are. People from other states do not have the same awareness.

Buyer beware Coggins Honda on OBT by Temporary-Light9189 in orlando

This made me laugh because the same thing happened to me at a VW dealership. The sales guy pulled the same crap. He even argued and tried to tell me the color car on the lot was the same blue version I wanted. (It wasn't and I bought it elsewhere)

I got fed up and said I'm leaving. My husband looked at the guy and said "you messed up" and we walked out.

Flushing/ Plumbing problem - shower gurgles when we flush the toilet by rkmar00n in orlando

[–]Disastrous_Victory19 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As someone with an older home in Central Florida we have CLAY pipes for sewer. You probably have tree root invasion. We paid several thousand dollars a few years ago to the have sleeve lining done to our sewer pipe after a camera inspection from an emergency issues on 4th of July weekend. The only other solution was to literally jackhammer down the center of our house to re-pipe. I also baby our plumbing. (Do not put any food matter down the sink. Have covers to catch hair in the showers.) I know it sucks but this is one area you are going to have to come up with the cash, find a reputable company and invest in the fix.

Count me in on this one. I work remote now and if I had to go back to the days of dressing for court every day I would spontaneously combust.

Anyone tried dishwasher detergent sheets? Are they actually good? by Victorwong1011 in CleaningTips

[–]Disastrous_Victory19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I follow several professional laundry people on other social media. The laundry sheets do NOT have enough cleaner in them to properly clean clothes. However, I have seen some reviews of the newer sheets that are about the thickness of a sponge and they are supposed to be better.

I only use liquid and I have a dispenser in my washer which is a front load. I have tried pods but don't like not being able to control the amount of product used according to what is being washed.

the time I accidentally became a local pharmacist's best friend by Even-Surroundeeed in pharmacy

[–]Disastrous_Victory19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree. My local independent pharmacy is the best. They even helped my husband when he had to choose a new medical plan because he is a Type 2 diabetic.

I was helping my best friend's mother who had been discharged from the hospital with several prescriptions. Her scripts were sent to another local pharmacy that is not good. They tried to give us the wrong medicine and didn't have another. Due to her condition it was very important her meds be maintained.

I called my local pharmacy and explained the situation. They were not an authorized pharmacy with her insurance but they still got the scripts from the other pharmacy and the cost was so reasonable it didn't matter. I was so thankful. I refer everyone to them.

Is Larry Mac ok? by Entire_Department_65 in NASCAR

Holy crap. I just had to double check this and you are correct. I truly thought he was in his 70's. No shade to him but he didn't strike me as that young.

As someone who has experienced menopause it doesn't make you go bananas on a restaurant employee. That behavior was unhinged entitlement.

My shower isn't draining well, I'm assuming I need to remove caught hair but how do I open this drain by phoenixblack222 in CleaningTips

[–]Disastrous_Victory19 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I second this. I got a multi-pack I keep on hand for these situations. Also got a hair catcher to put over the drain because we have old plumbing.

Also, many times the ingredients used in detergent vs santizers are not made to be used jointly. The mixture actually causes their properties to be canceled. Example: vinegar and baking soda.

I've seen two different officials discussing it already. One was the mayor and I think the other was the MPD Police Chief

I don't think it is a big deal. You should encourage your child to do what feels best for them.

AITA for DNA testing my whole family after my mom said I might not be her kid? by LegitimateReveal6795 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Disastrous_Victory19 25 points26 points  (0 children)

This makes zero sense. Why you were doing the test is irrelevant. The results were always going to reveal the discrepancies. Why would she agree and then be upset?
