I'm actually very impressed with this ad. It's so tone deaf I'm struggling to believe it's real.

Its advertising to the landlords. They don't care what you think.

I can't wait for the next ad:

Sleep soundly with your riches.
Let us deal with demanding tenants so you don't have to.

Set to a backdrop of a generic, stock photo of a young white man sleeping on a Scrooge McDuck-pile of AI-generated photorealistic gold.

It literally is....

It is a property management company. They manage ~~parasites'~~ landlords' property for a fee so the landlord can literally sit and relax, do absolutely nothing and leech off of the income of working people.

I don't get why people think this is an ad for "normal people."

LOL, imagine thinking the ghoul would actually promote an employee for doing a good job.

(For that matter, LOL at thinking it would be done by an actual employee and not outsourced to some overpriced consulting firm and then sub-sub-subcontracted out to slave labor in SE Asia or something.)

Should have been just the promise of a promotion. You know, one that never materializes, stringing the wraith along until they finally wise up and move to another company.

okay but wraith is still going to get laid off despite doing a great job

Why would a ghoul be managing a wraith. That seems backwards.

[–] winterayars@sh.itjust.works 6 points 9 months ago

The ghoul has more money.

Every once in a while I see a post that makes me think of the quote "that's the kind of thing that would drive some to righteous violence," and I wish I could attribute that quote

Who doesn't want to grow rich in their sleep?

Not if it's money extorted from people under the threat of homelessness, not particularly, no.

You gotta up that grindset king.

I'd much rather grow weed, given the choice
