Despre cand crezi ca toata balariile debitate de tine conteaza

Sa incepem cu inceputul …

Pe scurt, una care se crede mare zeita a netului doar pentru ca e vloggerita si are adunati la gramada niste fraieri care ii urmaresc datul de maini pe net, s’a gandit ea ca Valentines Day sa o prinda la un hotel de lux la care a trimis email’ul de mai sus. Partea delicioasa, de abia de aici incepe si este reprezentata de raspunsul hotelului in cauza prin managerul sau …

Dear Social Influencer (I know your name but apparently it’s not important to use names),

Thank you for your email looking for free accommodation in return for exposure. It takes a lot of balls to send an email like that, if not much self-respect and dignity.

If I let you stay here in return for a feature in your video, who is going to pay the staff who look after you? Who is going to pay the housekeepers who clean your room? The waiters who serve you breakfast? The receptionist who checks you in? Who is going to pay for the light and heat you use during your stay? The laundering of your bed sheets? The water rates? Maybe I should tell my staff they will be featured in your video in lieu of receiving payment for work carried out while you’re in residence?

Lucky for us, we too have a significant social media following. We have 186k followers on our two Facebook pages, an estimated 80k on our Snapchat, 32k on Instagram and a paltry 12k on our Twitter, but Jesus Christ, I would never in a million years ask anyone for anything for free. I also blog a bit, which as far as I’m aware is another way of saying “write stuff on the internet”. The above stats do not make me any better than anyone else or afford me the right to not pay for something everyone else has to pay for.

In future, I’d advise you to offer to pay your way like everyone else, and if the hotel in question believes your coverage will help them, maybe they’ll give you a complimentary upgrade to a suite. This would show more self-respect on your part and, let’s face it, it would be less embarrassing for you. Here is a little video I produced which you may learn from: http://bit.ly/2mKTDTD

P.S. The answer is no.

Partea si mai misto e ca dupa ce i’au sarit in cap toti tocatorii de iarba la caini care se cred niste mici Dumnezei in felul lor doar ca isi vomita ideeile si dau din maini in vremea asta (niciodata nu am sa inteleg de ce dracu sufera toti vloggari de parkinson) pentru care au pretentia sa primeasca servicii gratuite, lantul de hoteluri si cafenele in cauza au luat decizia de a nu mai colabora si accepta in locatiile lor nici un blogger, P.S. de la finalul postarii fiind absolut genial …

**ALL BLOGGERS BANNED FROM OUR BUSINESS**

Following the backlash received after asking an unidentified blogger to pay for a hotel room, I have taken the decision to ban all bloggers from our hotel and cafe.

The sense of entitlement is just too strong in the blogging community and the nastiness, hissy fits and general hate displayed after one of your members was not granted her request for a freebie is giving your whole industry a bad name. I never thought we would be inundated with negative reviews for the simple reason that somebody was required to pay for goods received or services rendered.

Poate din toata treaba asta or sa invete si pisorcosii care se cred si mari vedete pe la noi, ceva! Bine ar fi ca exemplul acestor lant de hoteluri sa fie luati si de altii, care in felul asta poate ca ar limita din asaltul asta de niste unii, care daca au o camera, un telefon si un PC cred ca au descoperit apa calda.
