I don't know if you guys remember, but I was really stressed for so long because my stupid landlord was working on the apartment below mine. He is renovating the entire apartment (ie, knocking out walls, installing cupboards, bathtubs, everything from the ground up!
Well, this man does not work at all. He has the whole week to work on this apartment while we are at work. But does he? Of course not. He choses to come after 5 o'clock and usually stays until 8 which means I get to come home from a stressful day of work and eat dinner through the racket of him slamming doors, banging, and just being obnoxious, as he rebuilds this apartment right below me. (We have paper thin walls too, btw).
I talked to him twice already, maybe 3 times, and he assured me that the worst was over and that all the work would be done while I was at work.
Well, he lied. Again, on a Saturday morning, I am awakened at 7:30 to banging and shouting and noise! My one fricken day to sleep in. My day away from work to just try and relax.
I am super sensitive to noise. It is my number one stressor. I have like super hightened noise receptors or something. Well, my tummy is in knots and it is only 11:00 am. It is going to be a long, stress filled day.
And he flat out lied to me. He promised he would't be working on the apartment on weekends or when it would bother me. I pled with him...I explained that it wasn't because I was trying to be a pain, but that it was really making me ill to listen to this loud noise.
Why doesn't he care? Why did he lie? Do I say something to him yet again, to let him know how upset I am? But I already talked to him 2 or 3 times. Why can't people just be more empathetic and respectful?
He's got a guy down there with him now and they are slamming doors and shouting to each other. UGH...I needed this weekend to rest...it's been a bad week. I need to get the heck out of here! But the thought of moving is overwhelming. And by the time I move, he will probably be almost done. But then I'll have to deal with new neighbors with my paper thin walls. This is the worst apartment I have ever lived in!
I wish I could afford my own place so bad. I honestly don't think my GI problems would be half as bad if I didn't have to deal with apartment living.
Thanks for listening. If anyone is around on this weekend day, please offer some advice, as I sit her losing my mind and my tummy does cartwheels. I can't stay out all day...there is too much to do here. I hate this landlord. He is the rudest, most inconsiderat A**!
