Another Airbnb Victim Tells His Story: “There Were Meth Pipes Everywhere”

"In addition to valuables stolen, the thieves/addicts did thousands of dollars of bizarre damage to my rented home and left it littered with meth pipes. They were identity thieves, too and all my personal information was strewn about. Further investigation of my own led me to evidence that the people were not just thieves but were also dangerous. I too, feared for my own safety and would not stay at my house for some time.

I had a similar problem with haphazard communication from people at AirBnB. I gave them multiple opportunities to make me a happy customer to which they did but then retracted their offer after their was miscommunication among the team. Sometimes days went by without hearing from anyone, while I was fear-stricken, totally disoriented, and angry. It was almost the most absurd customer service crisis one could ever imagine. But I am one squeaky wheel, and we eventually found an agreeable solution that I was generally pleased with."

Never, Never, Never, Never give up." (his capitals, mind you)"

"In a time of potentially diminished resources, we're trying to be as creative as we can," US Attorney Paul Fishman tells the New Jersey Law Journal. "This is a project that has been tried with great success in other US Attorneys' Offices around the country."

The "project" to which Fishman refers is the hiring of "Special Assistant US Attorneys" -- with "special," in this case, meaning "free."

Announced today, New Jersey is looking to fill Special Assistant positions in the General Crimes Unit of the Criminal Division in Newark and in the Criminal Division in Camden"

"Shanghai Zhenhua only expects a small profit from its part of the project, which it won in 2006 with a $250 million bid, Zhou said, without elaboration. Instead, the group hopes the bridge will help it win more contracts as it expands into new products, including equipment for offshore drilling and wind- power generation.

“Making money wasn’t the first priority for us,” Zhou said. “We want to build a name for ourselves in a new area.”
