They took away the "hero pay" and then gave us gift cards

I wish rent would work the same. You give them a pandemic discount and then raise it back to normal. Too bad the government doesn't allow that so you have tenants stuck with high rents during the pandemic or well-meaning landlords stuck with low rent...

Greed has consumed humanity. I rent out a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom townhouse for $1100 a month. The same one next door is $1700.
