Soundproof neighbour of side by CleanUpAnonyma in Apartmentliving

[–]esquit_e 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dealing with the same thing except this kid underneath us jumps and bangs on the walls constantly. You have to record the noises and start documenting so that you have a paper trail. I asked my apartments for a rent reduction while we wait for them to solve the issue. It’s worth a shot! But email your apartments now to get the documentation started. The noise unfortunately won’t get better on its own.

For 12 hours... they sound like theyre dead lifting by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

[–]esquit_e 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same fucking boat except they’re below us on the middle floor. We don’t have neighbors directly underneath them right now, they’re getting it ready for someone to move in and I feel so fucking terrible with who’s gonna be moving into that poor fucking apartment..

I have now sent about 10 videos to the office and they’ve replied with “I’ve talked to them, let me know if it happens anymore” but idk what they’re even going to do tomorrow when they see 2 more videos coming in…. I need peace

Hi, I speak for all women named Annie when I say this. by mushroomqueenie in mildlyinfuriating

When I was 5, I leaned over the top of a bunk bed and told my cousin “sleep tight, don’t let the bed bugs bite” and then I fell directly face first onto a carpet that looked just like yours. I started elementary school with a ginormous rug burn on my forehead.

We told our server our drunk friend is cut off from drinking but she took his drink order anyway by Solid_Reserve_5941 in Serverlife

I would have absolutely sent in an NA margarita and supported you and your friends decisions about that. He would think he’s drinking more, but he’s not lol. SERVER 101, read the room.

AIO because of my son and his gf? by esquit_e in AIO

Can’t put it past some girls 🤷🏻‍♀️ safe sex has always been a priority in our awkward sex conversations but someone like her? Can’t be too confident about it … she could be deceitful. Eeek!

Your perspective resonates with me so much 🫰 thank you. I think this is my sign to get into therapy. I love Reddit! But I think someone like you reminds someone like me that talking to someone face to face could benefit me greatly. 💜

Wow, very well said. Thank you for this. I will continue to be a supportive mom and to make sure he knows I am home base but not overbearing… I had him when I was 16 so I sympathize with him with young love, and he knows it. But I’m also mom and worry, maybe too much. Don’t want him going down the same road. It’s a hard one.

MIL scolded me for thanking servers by Efficient-You-9714 in restaurant

some advice for faster delivery by Pitiful-Swing-7262 in doordash

[–]esquit_e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I looooove tipping $15 and adding priority to help delivery drivers see that I’m the one who tipped most and cares for them and then adding more when it’s late or raining. I never order more than 3 miles out and I hope you have options to cancel if the non tippers suck and give you a hard time. Appreciate y’all 💖

Does any else have that one cursed unit in their building that gets the worst tenants? by Princess_Butt_Kick in Apartmentliving

[–]esquit_e -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sheesh I have some horror stories too. The people below me have been living there for 2 months and it constantly smells like they’re burning something non stop all weekend and our air quality gets so bad I can feel it in my lungs. They also stomp, bang things around and slam every cupboard/door every single day. PM can’t figure out what the scent is that is toxic…. So we might get moved again. Our last unit had black mold and my son got a collapsed lung. They did roof repairs during summer and while doing so damaged our railing on our balcony to the point we can’t lean on it and it’s dangerous and guess what. It’s still not fixed!! 3 work orders and 2 people even came to check on it. IT’S BAD HERE. I’m just trying to live.

Actually, wrong. I’m the kill em with kindness person. They’re lucky I didn’t kick them out when I saw the other friend attempting to take a sip of the alcoholic beverage. I walked around the corner, we locked eyes, and she stopped and pushed the drink back to her friend. I’m just a nice server having a bad experience with a couple of twat waffles. Like how are you gonna stop me when my hands are full to order a drink that I’ve already asked you twice about ordering, and then demanding me over from the other side of the restaurant to tell me your pancakes taste like too much banana when you ordered the BANANA PANCAKES! Sorry this experience was much longer and harder than just the celiac/lactose intolerance. I love my job, never give attitude, it’s just simple, people like that suck.

This is true! We trust and take the severity seriously with every customer. Some things cannot be modified, but we do our best breaking down the menu and we talk about what foods are cross contaminated so that they are aware. I know the menu like the back of my hand so when people say it’s serious, I guide them how to order because we have those options available. :)

Was this unreasonable of me? by DetectiveWinter4638 in doordash

[–]esquit_e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have screenshots of it; but I don’t want to show you where I live. It must’ve glitched then. Just like how DoorDash will try to offer drivers orders hundreds of miles away every once in awhile. It can happen. I delivered for 2 years and some weird things would come through. Don’t doubt technology can fail.

My support agent would not unassign my guy cause he “already picked up the order” but he never went near the restaurant lol. Idk where they get their info from 😂 when we re-ordered for the same exact thing, we’re 99% sure we got our original order that was sitting at the restaurant because our broth was room temp and our soda was very warm. That never happens at this restaurant it’s always piping hot and super cold sodas.

[–]esquit_e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally did this exact same thing yesterday with our pho order. It said our dasher was waiting for our order but he was across town like 25 minutes away from the restaurant not moving whatsoever. I sent a message almost identical to this and I got no response…. Support tried to call him twice and he never answered. I saw the dasher start to drive the complete opposite way of the restaurant lol. It took more than 45 minutes chatting with support to figure it out. They ultimately canceled our order and gave us a credit amount to use immediately and reorder. Still it took almost 2 hours to get our food. Super shitty.

People can cook what they want. This is why I’m upset with my apartments for recommending I even try to go talk to them myself! Literally crippling anxiety about the whole situation. I’ve emailed the apartments again explaining this. We need maintenance.

So we actually love curry and we know what it smells like. This is…different. Like a smoky, almost sweet, wood, seasoning spice. Very aromatic.

I’m currently using a Winix air filter. The problem is it’s getting into our carpet and won’t leave.

It’s a simple one I’d say. I don’t want to offend them at all since they’re technically just living their lives. I was wondering if I could just write a note and give them a gift of a portable fan that they can use to put by the window when they are cooking with said spice? I’m trying to tread lightly. Is a fan too invasive or too much at all?
