They are so comfortable hiring workers to do everything for them that they end up acting handicapped. Little every day issues and chores become huge mountains of difficulty. The house cannot run without the help. Their needs come above everyone else's. They live in a bubble and have no clue how the average person lives. They overspend when it comes to themselves but will deny us bonuses, insurance, GH etc, because "money is tight" or "let's not complicate things". They tell you you are family until you aren't. They ask for a million things from workers that they would never be able to do, and become strict in case one of them is not done perfectly.

Armand, the hotel manager from White Lotus S1 said it best: "You have to treat these people like sensitive children... They wanna be the only child. The special, chosen baby child of the hotel. And we are their mean mummies, denying them their Pineapple room".

Amen.

They have cleaners. They have nannies. They have free time. Yet they can't keep a room clean for more than a few hours. These people will die without the help. Even taking the trash out is too much. Or calling the pool guy to clean the pool before it turns green.

Also these modern luxury houses are a nightmare. Designed to look like Kim Kardashian's house while nothing works. And it's not even luxury really, the floors are fake plastic wood and the counters are lined with fake plastic marble. Little things break constantly. It's hard to do basic chores because the spaces are designed so badly. And you have these people who don't know how to keep a household running, wandering around in these huge spaces, wondering why their house is never clean. It's because these houses need servants and nobody cares about them struggling.

After years in this profession I am dumbfounded by it. People with designer bags and outfits that look so successful until you get in their car and the smell of rotten nuggets hits you.

Be gentle, I am burned out and everything bugs me.
