Homemade dinner experience
I used to be a chef and host on this platform, and at first, things were going well, but then they went downhill fast. I loved meeting new people and earning some extra cash. I went the extra mile to help promote the site, letting news reporters and videographers come to my place. But I never felt like the staff appreciated me. The platform used to help fill up my dinners for a fee, but eventually, the only ones that sold out were the ones I could fill myself. Bookings started to dry up, sometimes only one or two guests would show, so I had to invite pals for free to make it look busy. When COVID hit, I tried to host again, but I got no response. Plus, the new community manager was no help and always wanted me to redo my photos. I was even given false hope about joining Viator which was a waste of my time. In the end, I realized the stress of using this platform wasn't worth it.
