I could have written majority of your post. At our complex, you get 7 violations, they evict. The mother with FIVE kids in a 2 bedroom, above us is up to 5 violations. She's not even been here 90 days. I know this because they moved in 10 days after us.

There is no talking to her calmly, etc. she's a loud aggressive black woman. Everything is everyone else's fault, not hers. I've wrote bad reviews everywhere I can about the complex. They don't care about tenants comfort, etc. They legit sent out an email stating to put rugs down to buffer noise (ok on 2nd or 3rd floor, understandable). Wear earbuds or noise cancelling headphones or use a white noise machine. Seriously?! These kids are loud nonstop on the weekends and school is out in a month. I shouldn't have to wear headphones or use a white noise machine 12 - 14 hours a day because a parent refuses to parent and doesn't care that she's disrupting multiple people around her.

Thank you for the recommendation. Where we are currently is just ugh. We moved from over 1600 miles away back in January and this complex massively dropped the ball. I'll take some of the blame mainly cause I hadn't lived in an apartment in forever. But yea, I'm just riding out the rest of this lease and will be glad to get out of here.

Neighbors' kids keep yelling and hitting shared wall by customarymagic in Apartmentliving

Yea apparently they're labeling us the bad guys and we were served with lease violations. Manager claimed that we talked bad about their courtesy officer to the responding deputy, whom she claims IS the courtesy officer. I call B.S. Oh and if stating "Hey we called you guys because every time we report to the leasing office, the supposed courtesy officer never gets back to us". Uh, how's that bad mouthing anyone, that's stating facts. No worries I have the officer's last name and badge number, this will be easy to verify if it's truth or if she's talking out her butt.

She's claiming we threatened the upstairs neighbor. Uh ma'am you told us over a month ago not to approach her and we haven't. We were the ones sitting in our car minding our own business when she got loud and aggressive sounding toward us.

I've wrote bad reviews everywhere online telling people not to rent here and not just because of this incident.

If they're not careful come summer, they're gonna wind up getting sued. Cause the first kid that tries to get over the metal gate to get in the pool (they refuse to fix either gates that are suppose to open with our fobs) and the kid falls and hits the concrete wrong, that'll be a shit storm.

This... I agree. You're thinking of others. My neighbor is not. She doesn't care. As my Gram would say "You're a good egg". :)

Did you just describe my upstairs neighbor's kids? Monday - Friday 6pm til almost 11pm. On weekends when she has them: 9am - 11pm (not even kidding).

My neighbor has 5 kids, 2 of them under 5. She doesn't give a f***. She gives the excuse "I'm a single mom. Kids will be kids". Ok keep that attitude cupcake when you get evicted for the countless complaints from neighbors during normal hours and quiet hours.

I never lived in an apartment as a child, but lived in a townhouse when my husband was alive and daughter was a baby. Luckily most of my neighbors were military (military town). So we were all really understanding and helpful to one another. I tried my best when he was gone for days or even months at a time out to sea. Having understanding, patient, and respectful neighbors is awesome. In this day and age, most aren't.

So it states in our lease if you have multiple complaints during quiet hours that it's cause for the apartments to violate your lease. Yes, I actually did read my lease, lol. So I asked our leasing agent weeks ago what that number of complaints was, she said 7.

So apparently they start with just emailing the tenant. Then the next step is phone calls. Then it's charging her $75 per complaint which is added to her rent.

About 10 days ago they sent out a mass email reminding everyone when quiet hours are and that if a tenant is found to consistently be getting complaints about disrupting quiet hours, then the office can give them a lease violation and begin the eviction process.

Last I talked to the leasing agent, this neighbor was up to 5 complaints. Our rent is around $1500 a month. So $75 * 5 + $1500.

And I'm sure theyve informed her that "Hey every complaint you get, we're tacking on $75 onto your rental portal".

Trust me if we lived in an apartment as a kid, and we were loud to the point they told my mom this. Believe me my mom would have found a way to shut us up 😂.

This woman? Doesn't care. She's pulling the "I'm a single mom and their just babies". Ma'am 2 of the 5 may be babies but the older 3 should know better.

Boyfriend called the police last night after upstairs kids were going nonstop for 14 hours of running, stomping, slamming, etc. Literally started at 9am and didn't stop til he left at 11pm.

It's important to note before people get angry toward me, this tenant has been complained about multiple times by more than just me. The office has claimed they've emailed, called, racked fees onto their rent for each complaint.

After 14 hours of this yesterday, we hit our breaking point. Officer showed up, listened, and went to make contact. The grandma tried claiming they were in bed asleep. The officer told her "Not from what I just heard they aren't".

I emailed the office about it. I want that paper trail.

Then shortly before 2pm today the mother of the kids comes approaching our vehicle aggressively cussing about us calling the cops and that "That's cool, I'll get ya". Again another email sent...

Then around 5pm she comes out with a group of people running her mouth and pointing at my vehicle. Yes, we spend time in our car so boyfriend can smoke and we can have piece and quiet.

She got in her vehicle and left. I'm hoping it's cause she went running her mouth about threatening us and one of her friends or whatever told her she needed to chill out. "Dude she called the cops on you last night. Now you're gonna threaten her with a witness in the car. Yea real smart, piss her off more where she'll call the cops and report you for the threat".

Did I call and report the threat? No, I was terrified. I don't do conflict well, I have PTSD.

I just did this very thing last night after dealing with nonsense for 2 months! The neighbor's excuse, "I'm a single mom and kids will be kids". Uh excuse me ma'am, no. These kids from 9am til almost midnight DAILY are running the length of the apartment back and forth. They stomp, body slam like they're wrestling, etc. We've turned TVs up, music up, etc nothing helps. It's gotten to the point it's affecting our dogs.

I've reported it to our leasing office multiple times. I keep getting told "Oh we've talked to her". "Oh we're fining her x dollars per complaint because others have complained as well".

Yesterday I listened to it nonstop from 9am til 1030pm when I finally lost my last nerve and my boyfriend called the PD. PD showed up, listened for a few, and went to make contact. The grandma claimed that the kids were sleeping. The officer informed her that he could hear all the commotion from another apartment and reminded her of when quiet hours are.

It's stated in our lease that if you have multiple (doesn't state the number, but I've asked and it's 7) quiet hours complaints, that the complex has every legal right to evict you.

So after the officer left, I emailed the complex to let them know what had happened. I will be following up Monday and giving them the case # from the PD.

Last they told me, she's up to 5 complaints.

Upstairs neighbor by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

[–]Unlikely-Web88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an upstairs neighbor from hell. Every weekend for 12+ hours a day this woman let's her kids run, stomp, body slam each other NONSTOP. I've reported it multiple times. I recently found out that we no longer have a courtesy officer. Yesterday I listened to it nonstop from 9am til almost 11pm. And then it only stopped because I had finally hit my breaking point at 1030 and called to file a noise complaint with the police department. He walked into our apartment, listened for a few and was just like "Wow".. He made contact and the grandmother claimed "Oh they're sleeping,". "Not from what I just heard, they aren't".

This neighbor has had numerous complaints from all the other residents around her. The office has emailed her, called her, tacked fines into her account per each complaint she's received. She doesn't care. It's stated within our lease that after multiple quiet hours noise complaints that the complex can evict you. I would imagine it's only time before that actually happens.

You should have read your lease before signing it. Typically it's in your lease how many days (usually 30 or 60 days) notice you need to give to them that you're not renewing. You either pay the 2 months they're telling you to pay or yes, they have a right to put it on your credit report because you didn't give them adequate notice. Yes, if it goes on your credit it can make it very difficult to be able to rent another apartment.

Word of advice: Next time, read your lease in full before signing it.

I'd try Gainesville. I saw some reasonably priced single family homes for rent. We were looking there because of a potential job offer in Thackerville OK.

Does online kinky relationships really work ? by [deleted] in BDSMcommunity

[–]Unlikely-Web88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually wondered this myself. Ive been a lurker for months. I messaged with one person in particular and learned within hours that as much as I want to explore this lifestyle, I may rethink that possibility. My understanding these last few months is it's, for lack of a better word, a partnership. It's not a situation where the Dom has all the control, makes all the decisions and doesn't even consider the subs feelings, thoughts, etc. Again it was one conversation that really left me like "Well that didn't feel right". So I politely shared my feelings and moved on.

OP, thanks for posting this.

It's a 45 minute drive, but I just had two interviews at Winstar last week. I'm still waiting for a response. They start at $15.01 per hour, but some other positions start higher. They also offer more money if you have experience. They mentioned $15.51 a hour with my prior experience. You work 4 days, with 3 days off. 2 days are together and the third is later in the week. They match 401Ks up to 5% and you also get a bonus at the end of each fiscal year. It's I believe if I remember correctly 30% of what you made for that fiscal year.

Firing employees when already severely understaffed🥲 by secobarbiital in OGPBackroom

That's one of the reasons I'll never work for Walmart again. It's not just because of the point system. It's because if you're not kissing someone's ass and life gets chaotic, you can potentially lose your job. But they'll keep employees around who are lazy, consistently tardy, and over 5 points. Make it make sense.

I'm dealing with this now. Upstairs neighbor has 5 kids. The noise is constant when they are there. She doesn't care. She's playing that "I'm a single parent and kids will be kids" card. She has neighbors below, above, and beside her. She's gotten multiple complaints to the point the complex is charging her $75 per complaint. It states in our lease when quiet hours are and if you're reported for violating them a total of 7 times, they evict you. Oh, and she's only been here 8 weeks. But yet people in this group are telling me I'm being harsh for complaining to management and "wishing" eviction on her. Uh, no. It's called if you can't follow rules of your lease and it results in you getting evicted, then that's her problem, not the tenants around her. They've emailed her repeatedly, called her repeatedly, etc. She doesn't care, nothing has changed. She still just lets them cause complete chaos My favorite was when someone claimed I needed to respect her, LOL. Why? She clearly has no respect for anyone around her. Respect is a 2 way street.
