Yuck

We have a new management company for my apartment building. Well, I guess they're not actually that new anymore. They've been here for about a year. Despite the issues I had with the old company, the new one is worse.

My bathtub wasn't draining. I had to call for 5 weeks in a row before anyone came to fix it. I had water damage on my bedroom ceiling. The ceiling actually had to start leaking before they'd come check it. And now it' s been plastered, but not painted.

What I really dislike, though, is how they're (not) taking care of the courtyard. See that picture? Those are giant mushrooms. This is not the first time this summer I've seen giant mushrooms in the courtyard. They don't seem to do anything about them, and it makes me nervous for the little kids who play in the yard. The grass is too long.

All they seem to care about is renting out new apartments. There are really ugly, tacky signs in the courtyard now, pointing out the way to the rental office. However, I must say, if I were a prospective tenant, giant mushrooms and unkempt grass wouldn't exactly sell me on a place.
