    If you don’t tip your landlord you have a much higher chance of internet and power outages… Just saying!

      Lol what? Almost all places I know (around here at least), the power and Internet bills are paid by the tenants

        Because why would the landlord pay a cost when they can just make the tenant pay without lowering rent?

      That sounds like a great case for strong consumer protection laws.

        No, I don’t believe that tips need to be backed by legislation, it’s better when they are optional so you can identify ideal tenants.

          Consumer protections, not landlord protections, my guy - what a strange takeaway.

          As property without power or internet isn’t habitable, and no rent should be paid on it - “voluntary” tips on top of what you’re already paying to placate a landlord in the hopes they won’t render the property uninhabitable aren’t voluntary - that’s what we call extortion.

          Edit: To those wondering what kind of dipshit defends landlords extorting people for tips by cutting power and electricity, I’d encourage you to look at this particular dipshit’s dumpster fire of a comment history.
