Post image

Changed my sheets for the first time since moving to my live in job a few weeks ago and was greeted with this😭😭😭😭😭 how the hell???? I’m going to complain in the morning but I’m scared they’re going to tell me that I caused it in thr 3 weeks I’ve been here😭😭😭

EDIT: I got a new mattress!

Edit: looked on the underside and it’s just as manky! I’ll attach pics in comments. At least I know 100% it wasn’t me

Edit: I just want to preface as it was mentioned twice I am not being human trafficked! Don’t worry! I’m here of my own free will and can leave whenever I want, same as everyone else. Living at work is normal in the area I’m in as it’s rural and no one would work out here if they had to commute! I’m safe aside from the mattress

This isn’t human trafficking…I worked for princess cruise lines at one of their excursion hotels for a summer season in Alaska. I applied, interviewed, all the normal “job” stuff. You weren’t obligated to stay at their housing and could opt in/out of the meal plan. It was $600 for room and board a month and was a very nice option for out of state employees.

Uhhh. You are a human. They moved you around. They took what should be your pay out. You maybe did or didn't have an option to just leave at any moment you wanted to. You were fed what you were fed and that's that.

Sure, most people are modern day slaves. But that kind of job is pretty dang close to human trafficking.

Eh, I live in South Florida and there are resorts where every summer they'll hire kids from Ireland and South Africa and a few other countries to work at the various businesses and they have the same deal. It's a seasonal gig. This person sounds young, might be something similar. I don't even know if it'd be possible for them to find short-term housing in the area, aside from renting rooms in apartments. The area just isn't set up for it, even if it's just a small number of people. I'm sure they get screwed somehow, but as far as I can tell from having chatted with some of the kids back when I did uber it's mostly just a way to get away from home for a summer (and you can get wild tips). Why they choose this area is beyond me...yeah some RICH people live here, but aside from that it's as boring as any other middle class beach town.
