we should be able to beat landlords to death
title is for humorous purposes only, of course. i just want to be treated like a human being.
woke up this morning while the entire house was out working, did chores for like, 5 hours, noticed the laundry room was incredibly wet and had been for a while, heard a strange noise. investigated further. well, a pipe burst in the wall and was now leaking 24/7 despite the faucet it's connected to being turned off and also the room has no valve to turn the water off on only that room, unlike the bathroom. how joyous!
hit up my landlord, hey man what are we going to do about this, can you help, like, at all. i can hire a plumber and you can deduct it off of january's rent, something like that. the answer is a very simple and direct No, I need you to pay full rent because if you don't I can't afford the property! WHY ARE YOU RENTING YOUR HOUSE THEN! SELL IT AND STOP DEALING WITH PROPERTY COSTS! YOU ARE STUPID AND MAKING MY LIFE HARDER BECAUSE OF YOUR OWN CHOICES! i am paying an overpriced rent to Live here! i rent because i can't pay for those kinds of house upkeep or a mortgage out of pocket!
we're planning on moving out of here anyways so this is a mild, temporary annoyance but i just had to shut off the water to the entire house to keep that dumb leak from springing and causing us an enormous water bill. *long sigh*
i promise i'll have something nicer to share soon. i want to talk about the PSX games i've been playing, and other things. the fact that i'm chatty enough to bitch is sign that i'm no longer catatonic from stress, so that's something to celebrate!
