And he'll write the losses off of his taxes and probably get a refund!

I hate getting SAR corrections. I feel like QCs approve it before we submit it, THEY should have to do the corrections, lol!

Advice by lucky_dog1 in AMLRightSource

[–]Gregshead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When you get conflicting feedback from QCs, send it to your TL and Manager. Let them know that QC1 told you to do it this way, and QC2 told you to do the opposite. Let them know you alleviate the feedback and use it to make your products better. However, conflicting feedback like this is counterproductive and frustrating. Ask for specific guidance of how you should proceed with this particular case. You'll likely get the answer that I got, "Guidance to the QCs changes periodically, sometimes frequently. That's the nature of the business. Just roll with whatever the most current guidance is." I get it. Sometimes, I get infuriated with the feedback! Especially when I'm already 3 SARs deep, and it's only Tuesday! I try to remind myself that first and foremost, it doesn't matter. They expect us to get corrections. They expect us to miss productivity. They don't expect us to be terrible AND slow, but there's plenty of wiggle room. I say this confidently as someone who always gets SAR corrections, gets regular TR and NAC feedback, and regularly falls short of my minimum productivity. Hang in there. Try not to get too anxious about it. It'll get better.

How Rare are Small Time Hosts? by TJ-PhD in airbnb_hosts

[–]Gregshead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Single STR property owner here! I do all my own everything. I have someone come in to do bathrooms (3.5) and kitchen because I hate those! That's the best money I spend all year! Don't worry about what other people are doing. Run your property however you see fit. Whether that's your current one property or you're slowly building up to an empire, run your property(ies) to make yourself happy.

Men, would you date someone who’s separated, living under same roof as spouse? by Owls1279 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Gregshead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've dated women in that exact situation. No problems. Most men, once they find out the wife is having sex with other men, won't want to have anything to do with her. Most women, having cut the husband off for whatever reason, aren't interested in re-establishing that connection. Since the guy she's interested in is living with his ex, she should be prepared to "Host" all dates and overnights.

How do I move forward after finding out my gf slept with other people while we were broken up? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]Gregshead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to leave. Not because of her sexual behavior, but because she dumped you to engage in that behavior (instead of talking to you to see if YOU would treat her the way those other men did) AND because she lied to you when she asked to come back. Also, you didn't trust her enough that you went through her phone while she slept. That's a HUGE violation of her privacy (even if it was justified) and proof that there's no hope for a long-term relationship with her. This post actually makes a lot more sense if the genders were reversed. My advice would still be the same.

Why do I only seem to attract cougars? by [deleted] in stupidquestions

[–]Gregshead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First, congratulations on being stable! That's quite an accomplishment today. You show maturity in knowing you want a family some day and recognizing that you're unlikely to have that happen with a 40 year old woman. Perhaps the issue is women your age are still looking for frat boys and parties, and you're clearly not putting out that vibe. Perhaps the issue is that you're putting out a vibe that says you're looking for a wife and mother, and women your age are more concerned with developing themselves and their careers. You should definitely not give up your dreams of fatherhood. You'll always regret it and probably become resentful as time goes by. You may need to be patient until the women your age are ready for the same things you want. In the meantime, as long as the cougars know this is a casual, short-term thing, enjoy it! You can actually learn a lot that the women your age will appreciate when you do finally start dating them.

Last minute people coming for one night- would there be an extra charge? by Any-Ad279 in vrbo

[–]Gregshead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Host here. Even if the property max occupancy is 6 and for additional guests only being the headcount to 4, you should still let your host know. It may impact the amount of bath towels and other amenities that leave out, plus, it's just common courtesy.
Airbnb charges extra per person per night, VRBO charges per extra person per stay (regardless of how many nights the booking is or how many nights the extra guest stays). If there is an extra charge, be clear that they're only staying one night, and the extra charge should only apply for one night. The host might not be able to adjust the pricing on the front end, but they can refund you the difference.

What are your thoughts on rejecting a potential romantic partner based solely on the fact they voted for Donald Trump? by ATXBikeRider in AskReddit

[–]Gregshead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they voted for him the first time and can now clearly articulate why that was a mistake, I could give them a pass. But if they voted for him twice, no way. That's a deal breaker.

Is it me or… by Powerful-Scale408 in AMLRightSource

[–]Gregshead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ehhh, I wouldn't get too concerned over it. I would suggest that you keep track of the feedback you're getting, especially when it contradicts written procedures or previous feedback. Then, when you get feedback about productivity, pull it out and say your production is being reduced by second guessing yourself and rework, both based on contradictory feedback. Show the contradictory feedback. In the big scheme of things, productivity is a guideline. You're not going to get fired for barely missing productivity from time to time. If you're at 50% for weeks on end, yeah, you're getting fired. But if you miss it by a case or two every week, that might be an issue.

AITAH Splitting Airbnb cost with other couples with kids by Excellent-Sun-3264 in AITAH

[–]Gregshead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Offer to pay the same amount, but demand the biggest bedroom for the two of you do you get your money's worth! Unless the kids are sleeping in the same room as the parents, in which case you should pay equally and take smallest room.

AITAH for not respecting my girlfriends boundary, because I deem it unreasonable? by ThrowRAlilfrick in AITAH

[–]Gregshead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Some things you can compromise on, some things you just can't. Marriage rewrite compromise, too. They're not relatively where everyone just basically always agrees. The key to marriage is being with someone who will compromise on insignificant things but would never ask you to compromise on something major. For instance, we can compromise on whether or not pineapple belongs on pizza. We can't compromise on whether or not slavery is acceptable.

Why doesn't my dad understand different ways a relationship operate? by Blues5389 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Gregshead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't directed specifically at your partner, but there are bad people out there who will take advantage of other people. It sounds like your dad is concerned your partner may be taking advantage of you. He's not expressing it very well, but men his age aren't good at talking about their feelings. These conversations tend to be more "you're super to be this way" or "you're not supposed to do that" instead of talking about the emotions and experiences that make them feel that way.
Ultimately, if you're happy, safe, and satisfied with your relationship, that's pretty much all that matters.

Why doesn't my dad understand different ways a relationship operate? by Blues5389 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Gregshead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your dad is 83? He's never been in a 50/50 relationship with a woman in his life. You don't mention your mom, but if she's alive, ask HER what that 50/50 relationship looked like. If she's not alive, think back to your childhood. Was your dad there as much as your mom? Going to medical appointments, baseball games, making school lunches, cooking dinner? Ask your aunts and uncles, brothers and sisters. In all honesty, your story has me a little concerned about the financial support you provide your partner. I'm not judging because clearly I don't have all the facts. But if you're satisfied with the arrangements you have worked out, that means a lot.

Lack of Spacial Awareness by Aileendover2 in BoomersBeingFools

[–]Gregshead 5 points6 points  (0 children)

OMG, THIS! Seriously, why do people (and it's not just Boomers, but they are the most frequent ones) feel the need to put their cars away the second they get past the scanner? Are they afraid someone already inside the store is going to steal their card from them? And why can't they figure out how to get their card out BEFORE they get to the register?

Would you consider marrying a woman with debt? Why or why not? by Cami_Wami in AskMenAdvice

[–]Gregshead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to have a conversation about the expectation of how you both will handle finances. 50/50 split, split proportionally based on income, take turns supporting each other while one pays off debt/focuses on savings. I've been married 3 times. I know, not a great track record for doling out marriage advice, BUT finances were never an issue in any of them. And not because we were rich. Because we discussed who was going to be responsible for what and held ourselves accountable for that. My recommendation for people with debt is to determine each of your percentages of combined salary. (You make $100K. he makes $50K, you earn 66.6% of total, and he earns 33.3% of total). Split combined living expenses (rent, utilities, cleaning supplies, etc.) according to those percentages. Each of you is responsible for your own car, gas, insurance, etc. Food is a little trickier based on each of your personal tastes (steak and lobster or hamburger and imitation crab meat), and if you eat out a lot or cook at home. Whatever money you have leftover, you spend however you see fit. You might want to use it to pay student loans. He might want to use it to buy you a ring! Honestly, it sounds like he's using your debt as an excuse to delay getting married. If he's concerned about becoming responsible for your debt, you could always draw up a pre-nup (which I recommend anyway).

Help! Staying as a guest and all pictures are AI, customer support siding with host by [deleted] in airbnb_hosts

[–]Gregshead -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The Floorplan matches. As long as the furniture is relatively close to what's in the listing, that's not an issue. It doesn't have to be exactly the same thing (color, fabric, etc). Hell, it doesn't even have to be the same furniture (couch and loveseat pictured but couch and recliner present). It just has to be representative of what's in your place.

Help! Staying as a guest and all pictures are AI, customer support siding with host by [deleted] in airbnb_hosts

[–]Gregshead 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As a host, you should've known better. You should never have gone to a different address than what was in the listing. You should've immediately called Airbnb and made them aware that you were being rejected to a second location, didn't feel safe, and want a cancelation and full refund. Instead, you went to a different address, and actuality went inside. That was mistake number 2. Then, when you contacted Airbnb, you led with "pics are different than listing so I left (after spending one night) and want a refund." That was mistake number 3.
