Oh, well as long as they were reasonably certain thousands of slaves would die, it's okay.

That means that it's someone's job to estimate how many slaves will die on a given project and how much it will cost to bulldoze their corpses off the worksite doesn't it. I wonder what their job satisfaction is like.

They died with migrant work, not from migrant work.

Oh and that number is far lower than the actual number because Qatar won't report it, that is compiled from these peoples' home countries reporting them as missing, so there are probably A LOT of poor migrants who no one even knows were there to report about it

That means migrant workers are dieing in horrific numbers on every project right?

Obviously the free market will correct for it when the sheer number of dying migrant workers makes them a scarce resource

Y'know I bet you could write in the lease that you need more than 2 months' notice or that you can't move out during winter and get away with it

I mean, why not just attach that idiotic mail? It literally says that this person would be a good tenant, with an unfortunate history of moving out in the winter. Not that I don't have a little red book with a different solution.

If you can somehow bamboozle them to get your deposit back before they realise, you've won the game

I sublet a room in a big house for a while years ago and I was getting ready to move and I knew she was gonna stiff me on my deposit mainly because two other people had moved out while I was there and shed stiffed both of them. I ended up just moving out at the end of the month without notice and not saying anything. Got a text on the fifth asking me if I was going to have rent and then on the sixth a whole bunch of profanity filled messages demanding I pay her for the month. I just told her to keep the deposit and she broke into a sob story about how it was Christmas and she wouldn’t be able to buy gifts and I’m like the deposit is a month’s rent you’re not out anything. Anyway I saw the place on Craigslist for six months after that asking for first/last/deposit lmao. loving shitlords. My advice is never live in the same house as your landlord. That’s a lesson I only needed to learn once

Living with your landlord is why buying a single family detached house turns you into a cognitive dissonance-riddled scumbag I'm pretty sure. It's like becoming a cop two weekends a year or something.

Wouldn't you just sue a tenant who skipped out on the lease and owed you money? It doesn't seem like a great strategy for the tenant unless you're penniless and the landlord couldn't get anything from you at all no matter what.
