I know, I know - not everyone is perfect, but come on!, there are limits to ineptitude, aren't there ??
one example ::
yesterday eve someone busted a pipe in their apartment, so they had to work on the boiler - no heat all last night... even this am the heating is very low coming from the piping
...at least I'm aware that it does take awhile for water-based heating to heat-up again, especially when a boiler goes down due to someone's ignorance/idiocy
now, I know, it may sound mean to say such things BUT the lady who's pipe broke was the same one who broke a pipe in her apt when winter had just begun ! ( thankfully wasn't as cold then, but still cold )
...this very same bitchcunt earlier this week, when we had sub-arctic temperatures, I caught trying to open hallway windows because her "apartment was too warm"
the reason WHY her apartment is too warm is she kept turning up the heat the day before and it didn't warm up immediately :(
when I told her how the heating works & that it takes hours for it to start adjusting, she seriously! didn't get it and said the maintenance said the same thing but it "doesn't make sense" *yeesh/sighs*
( just moments ago I had someone knocking on my door because my apt was warm(er) than theirs *laughs* - I posted that in the twits below )
another example ::
also noted in twits below, but people seriously don't understand HOW TO USE THE F'N GARBAGE & RECYCLING BINS !!!
sadly, I'm serious - they gave a detailed notice weeks ago about what goes in what bins... because the recycling service refused to pick it up anymore with non-recyclables in it ( which I find quite understandable )
...worse, the building would catch the culprits, have them remove their non-recyclable - and then someone would put MORE TRASH IN IT !
there have been notices up for years about NO FURNITURE can go in or around the trash canisters - and people do it anyways...
not surprising not too long ago the trash service refused a pick-up one weekend because the canister was FULL of furniture someone had stuffed into it !!
...which led to a mess as - even though the complex put out notices for no one to put anything in or around it until the situation is fixed - the entire trash area had trash around the canisters, as well as MORE furniture
...a'yep, an apartment complex of f'n idiots >:(
on a side note, we made it through this week of sub-arctic temps... and today might even get above freezing ! ( that's just a might, though, likely "high" is just below 30 )
work was really great about it, picking me up & dropping me off - even though it's only a 5-10 min walk
( though it was windchills of -60, so a bit dangerous to be out there even for that long )
MUCH appreciated, so I was thankful as all hell - even with the work weirdness of late *laughs*
ANYways - thanks for letting me rant... think I'm gonna play some Sims3 before my girls arrive :)
twittage ::
1/27 : my vacations for 2019 are now on the calendar - the mid-April O'H! trip I've mentioned many times ( and looking 'hella' forward to - do people still say 'hella'? )
& end of July ( no plans set, just the dates - what, I'm still planning/plotting the mid-April one! ) :D
2/1 : one of the hardest things about living in an upper-floor end-corner apartment is fighting the urge to febreze the 7 hells outta the nearest neighbours in my hallway & below *gags* - seriously, some smells are just *ugh-nasty!*
2/2 : weeks back, they sent a notice explaining to people how to use the garbage & recycling, THEN a notice explaining people can't drop off their trash in the laundry room, *THEN* a notice not to stuff trash in the sidewalk sand canisters, now back to what goes in the recycling! >:(
2/2 II : *KNOCK KNOCK* "HEY - how come I can feel heat coming from your apartment already & mine's still cold !?"
I turned my spaceheater on every few hours for an hour or so
"they didn't give ME a spaceheater !"
they didn't give me one either
"that's not fair !" *storms off angry*
