Zephyr_Nova Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 lol - i joked to my friend who is crashing here that the tenant below would complain as soon as I opened the microwave door. 10 minutes later, a text from my landlord. Amazing. Been sitting on the couch all night either reading or watching Norm MacDonald clips with headphones on. My friend's been sleeping in the same room. Definitely going through with the bag of spiders into the balcony hammock plan. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zkom Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 I'm staying in a hotel for this week and either the walls are really thin or the guy in the neighboring room snores really loudly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One work trip years ago had me next to a dude that was screaming his head off one morning, he sounded like he was possessed by demon. Real guttural screams, fortunately I checked out that day.

I know a lot of people who have been looking for months-a year with no luck. I found this place in a couple months, and only viewed 6 places. The apartment itself is great in most ways, aside from this asshole neighbour. Sounds like my landlord is on my side and agrees the guy is being an unreasonable dink. Sadly I don't think a tenant can be evicted for being a whiny little bitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr_Nova Posted September 15, 2021 Share Posted September 15, 2021 I'm back with even more info on my mundane problem. (It's your now, watmm.) Apartment manager caught me outside while I was approaching my van (he was trimming the lawn). Said it was the same problem with the last two tenants in my apartment, but in those cases he thought the tenants were on the noisier side, whereas he doesn't believe I am. Luckily the asshole downstairs wants to move to a two bedroom anyway, and one is opening up elsewhere in the building. So he thinks that will resolve the problem (at least for me.... I imagine the guy will complain about anyone who lives on the other side of his ceiling). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been in that situation too many times and in fact currently find myself in that situation. It sucks. Much better to get off to a good start before there's so much hostiliy that it's too late See my post above for the riveting update. The war cannot be avoided though, at least not while I continue existing above this guy's apartment. It's his war entirely. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I’ve heard the little 10 gallon tanks are just the gateway drug. Will let you know when I’ve developed a more serious habit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke viia Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 fwp: boss sent my dept an email about how we're not communicating effectively and specifically called out a mistake I made. I replied immediately asking someone from the team to call me so I can correct what had happened. I also immediately texted said boss and asked if they would call me. Seven days later, no one has replied. Boss has now ignored 3 texts on separate subjects that need their attention, but replies immediately if the answer is "ask so-and-so." JFC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit scary ack. that sucks.. but maybe you can trade places now. she can go for the benefits and you can find work? regardless she should apply asap for benefits if no job is on the horizon. good luck. i hope it's less stressful soon! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
