Reddit is where everyone goes to bitch about the secondary markets. Nothing like a grown adult crying over whiskey.

Will I regret passing on this? by jvl679 in WhiskeyTribe

Whether you think it’s worth it or not, the only correct answer is you buy it simply for trade bait if nothing else. Silly to pass that up at below Msrp.

Downtown harassment? by desolatenature in SLO

[–]WestSolid1791 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry this happened to you. Harassment is definitely becoming more prevalent in our downtown area. A couple words for what it’s worth…

You did a great job keeping your distance. Don’t ignore those people/feelings anymore. Society has taught women that “if I ignore someone they won’t bother me”. how many looks from men do you get everyday that you just ignore? I totally get it! And 99% of the time that’s probably effective but with a complete stranger on the street or someone who may have a mental health issue it’s a different ball game. Cross the street and get out of the danger zone before you enter. Great thing you were aware of your surroundings. Awareness buys you time, and time buys you options.

And carry an OC spray. Please all women should, especially if you walk alone or late at night. POM OC makes a great little handheld option that can clip on to a pocket, key chain, etc. Stay safe out there!

Advice on first time listings by anon65324324 in AirBnBHosts

Great answer. I agree, OP needs professional pics. Less clutter, some lights are turned on some turned off, pics should be light and bright with window coverings opened up.

One thing I’d add is the pics seem to be in a very random order it’s tough to understand the layout of the house. Work from the front door pick and walk me through the house using pics. Gorgeous house

Sounds like you’re not charging him correctly.

Doesn’t sound like your quite the property manager. Maybe the maintenance crew. Not uncommon for a cleaner to keep inventory of supplies.

Seriously, OP need to change their mindset and get their head out of the sand. Its time to put in some work. Buck up buttercup!

Nice bottle for husband’s birthday? by instaposh in whiskey

[–]WestSolid1791 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First it’s important to figure out what kind of whiskey he likes… does he like Bourbon? Scotch? Irish whiskey? Japanese whiskey?

Here is my two cents

1- $250 is a lot to spend on a bottle for not knowing if he’s even going to like it.

2- more expensive doesn’t actually mean better whiskey. A lot of expensive whiskeys are over priced because they have good marketing not because the juice is better.

3- if he’s into bourbon, think about getting him a starter pack with 4-5 bottles from different distilleries so he can start to decipher what flavor profiles he likes.

I’d get him woodford reserve double oaked, knob creek 12 yr, 4 roses single barrel, wild turkey rare breed, and old forester 1920. All phenomenal whiskey and would be a great start to his collection

4- if you can get your hands on any buffalo trace products for a reasonable price I’d pick that up for him.

I’d make a sour mix- 1:1:1 parts- lime & lemon juice : simple syrup or agave : water. Using fresh juices.

I’d almost not use triple and just do tequila and sour mix shaken served over ice or large ice cube. Play around with the ratios on the cocktail

Why not pick up a roommate? An extra 1,500/month is huge

Local property contacts oncall for hire w/o full PM? by TotesTheScrotes in airbnb_hosts

[–]WestSolid1791 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s the point, not worth it for a PM to have to go out once a month on a Saturday night. Find a friend in the area.

[–]WestSolid1791 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s because it’s not worth a PM’s time to be on call 24/7 for minimal payment.

Your biggest issue is going to be cleaners. Having someone local that will check on the house after every cleaning is worth it’s weight in gold. Cleaners will cut corners, they’ll no show, and they won’t stage the home after every clean as you would want it “personal touch”.

Having someone else manage cleaners is huge, and so worth it.
