Its Just So Stupid - Tumblr Posts
Our new landlord (the owner anyway, the management company seems okay so far) is a big fucking prick apparently and will not approve even a single screw into a stud to mount a Dustbuster vacuum charger!! 🙃 And we're specifically not supposed to patch any holes ourselves when we move out, if we do make any??? So when they inevitably have to repaint between tenants they can blame it on us and charge our security deposit instead of being responsible for the general upkeep and turnover of their fucking profit source!!
So now we're faced with the question of whether to Follow the Rules and use command strips to hang everything, risking tearing big ass, difficult-to-patch holes in the drywall if those fail, or to be duplicitous and drill a few very small and easily-patched holes for screws that we could fix before we leave in two seconds with a caulk gun and a teaspoon of paint.
Like, I can see places they've patched old holes in the walls and ceilings, and they didn't do a very fucking good job!!! Clearly they don't actually care *that* much!!! I could absolutely do *at least* as good a job and everyone involved would save time and money and effort!!!!
Like I'm very glad this place is actually intact and in good shape for once, and I realize that landlords have to account for the stupidity of the general public, but jesus christ dude. And I can't even communicate with them directly to be like "hey I promise I'm at least as anal retentive about shit as you so please don't be an asshole to me!!! I'm trying to take good care of your house!!!!" Fuck I hate renting!!!!!!
