Vandals!

Multiple apartments in our area (including at least 4 in our building) had their locks superglued so the families couldn’t get in. Right now I’m listening to one of the repairmen trying to drill through the lock of the people who live across from us (close call for us).
This really sucks… I tell you, each year this place gets worse and worse. Did I mention the dripping roof is back? Yeah, so much for it being fixed. The bright side is we finally have a new head manager and lead repair man this month, so maybe things will start getting taken care of.
Can you believe the guy has worn through 2 drill bits trying to get through our neighbor’s door? He says it’s as if they used an entire tube of glue. We really need cameras in the hallways (and outer doors that actually lock like they’re supposed to), methinks.
It’s not quite April yet, but it looks like the storms have started a day early. Not only did it rain all night, it’s looking like it’ll continue through most of today:
Now, I love storms… I really do, but some of you may remember back in October when I complained about our leaking roof. I left off with the following paragraph:
That’s right, after months of telling the management that we can hear dripping when we stand in the kitchen, and them saying they’ve fixed it, the water that’s been slowly rotting the roof broke through right next to the light on the ceiling (I’m sure that’s good for the wiring). Nice. So here I sit, missing work, waiting for the roofers and the maintenance crew to get their collective butts up here to fix this. Sigh They’d better get here soon, seriously…
Well, if soon meant “5 months later we’d still be waiting for them”, then they may get here soon. That’s right! After many calls and many excuses by the management as to why it hasn’t been fixed yet (they’re too busy, now it’s too wet, now it’s too cold, now it’s too whatever I can come up with), this is what we get this morning:
Sweet… that looks familiar (note the new crack). For those wondering, it’s white now because it got painted over… not fixed. So I wonder what the excuse will be today? “Too wet,” maybe? “Too busy,” possibly? Maybe we should just get too busy to pay rent? I wonder how well that would go over? It’s not like we’ve been forced out of our house recently because their faulty equipment started a fire, and it’s definitely not like we’ve ever had issues here before. Updates whenever they happen, perhaps next year some time.
