[Landlord - US - IN] Is being fat a protected class? : Landlord :marseyxd:

https://old.reddit.com/r/Landlord/comments/wkx0tj/landlord_us_in_is_being_fat_a_protected_class

								

								

I know I'm going to get a lot of hate for this question.

I've always treated fat people like everyone else. But one thing that I have noticed over the years of being a professional landlord is 100% of the time fat people are awfully hard on the properties, much much more so than everyone else. They don't intend to. But their body weight and their clumsiness always break things a lot more.

Especially the potty. Pottys always become loose and leaky. I think this happens because fat people have to rock themselves back and forth in order to get up, thus loosening breaking the bolts and flange over time. This always turned to hundreds or thousands of dollars in repairs.

After this last round of repairs, all because of an obese ex-tenant, I'm considering not renting to fat people anymore.

Yes, I fully understand I'm going to get the collective wrath of reddit by asking this question.

Reddit landlords are just as stupid as the average redditor, except they spent money from their parents on becoming a landlord. They are unbelievably stupid. They also ask if it's okay to turn the heat off in the middle of the New York winter or if they can bill tenants for "wallpaper peeling," etc.

ask if its okay to turn off the hear in the middle of the winter in New York

Good question, it is, frick New Yorkers.

if they can bill tenants for wallpaper peeling

Another good question, yes of course they can, tenants should be nickel and dimes just for breathing.

As a plumber your potty flange and bolts rotted because of improper install, age or just normal wear and tear. If you landlords would learn that when getting a new floor you must raise the flange I would have about half as many jobs.

fat plumber in denial chimes in :marseythumbsup:

That guy is coping hard. I had a fat friend stay with me for a few months and my potty took a massive beating.

  • He ate 1/4 of a roll of potty paper every time he went.

  • Dislodged the gasket between the tank and bowl.

  • Loosened practically every bolt on the seat and floor.

In college we had to remove the bathroom dividers for one guy in our house. So we all had to sit next to each other doing number 2 with our butt cheeks inches from each other.

dafuq?

That is literally my recurring nightmare, but the cute twink just rolled with it in college pooping next to his bros.

I imagine it's from water damage, I bet the fatty didn't report it right away out of embarrassment.

I don’t rent to fat people because it’s illegal to force them pay fat taxes but think logical fat people wear down the property more than skinny people
