Duncan Cyrus, age 20, Landlady
My first apartment. I feel peace here. It's a two bedroom and one bath with a kitchen and dining area. How do I afford it? A job of course, my parents help out, and I get discounts by supplying my landlady the necessary fulfillment.
When I first arrived to look at the apartment I admit it had me at first sight. The size, the quietness, but the price was definitely up there for a college student. The manager was definitely trying to make a sale. My parents told me if I wanted it they would help, but only putting a hundred each. My job at a local flower shop at the time allowed me a few hundred a week. The rest was knocked off by knocking off my landlady.
After the first month I knew I would have to get a new job but no one was hiring. So I had to bite the bullet until the end of the semester at least. My landlord was a bit of a dickhead to say the least. Always trying to tell me I was overdue with my payments, messed up appliances, and other stuff. The man really doesn't understand who I was born to. I made before and after of daily and weekly pictures monthly with every payment. Letters, emails, texts, and voicemails copied and printed to state I have contacted him of any problems promptly. The first month I gave him all the paperwork and he looked at me with annoyance. That's right, you try to mess with my livelihood I'll be sure to make your life hell.
His wife was impressed though. She told me this later when she came by to inspect my apartment. So there I was, dealing with another asshole with a significant other that is hot up for dick. Once a month I give her the business because her husband doesn't have the decency as a husband to please her. Then again I only really do it to keep my rent down. This entry is about how my landlord tried to screw me over and I come back with a vengeance.
I returned to my apartment after class to head out to the gym. My place was disheveled. You know me, I'm an organized freak. Luckily, after seeing and hearing about my landlord's shitty ways I decided to fully protect myself. Within two months moving in I had surveillance cameras set up in my apartment. Long story shorten, I got my landlord on camera for an entire month of trashing my place. The dirtbag had the nerve to tell me I was messing up my apartment on purpose so I didn't have to pay rent and to pay extra for maintenance. I had everything documented and recorded from emails, voicemails, and texts. His wife gave me those.
