More Landlord Shit

September 16, 2002

Went in today (the 3rd) to deliver my rent and follow up on (read: ask them when they're going to get around to) the work orders I put in. Tub faucet: still sitting on my toilet tank. Living room outlet: Still not wired. And the carpet? Ask next week, since the guy's on vacation this week. So that will be a month old by the time they get it fixed, too.

Unfortunately I got the cute blonde girl today. I'd have had a much easier time bitching out the guy. Instead I just said, OK I'll check back in later. God I'm a wuss around cute women.

Update, Sept. 5: The maintenance guy just now installed the faucet (he had to lengthen the pipe for it to seat properly) and says I'll be the first person on his list on the 7th for the outlet. We shall see...

Update, Sept. 12: Guess what still hasn't happened yet?

Update, Sept. 13: Someone was supposed to come in at 10:00 today and pull up the carpet. It's now 10:20. I'll give the guy until 10:45 before I go to the office and bitch. It seems like the left hand doesn't know what the right hand's doing with the carpet thing. But the guy will be in tomorrow Saturday to pull it up, supposedly. And I still lack an outlet. But on the upside, I have a functioning doorknob now.

Update, Sept. 14: So did the guy show up to pull up the carpet today? Of course not.
