Misc Just got threatened by a....

Coach · 02-21-2009, 10:33 PM

60 year old woman at work.

Here how it went. Every 3rd Wednesday, at a apartment complex that I work at, we have pest control, and we have a guy from a company that comes out and sprays each individual apartments, basically a basic treatment on the covebase/floor areas. My boss went with the pest control guy and we went to this one particitular unit, where our staff had major issues with, since this tenant always gives us problems, such as calling the police on us for no apparent reason, even though she is claiming that somebody is breaking into her apartment.

Now before I go any further, an example would be is that she once claimed that her next door neighbor was trying to break in by climbing on the ceiling from his unit to her unit. Okay, well here are a few problems with that. One is that each unit is seperated by a concrete barrier, so there's no way for the next door neighbor to somehow get on top of his ceiling and climb over to the apartment, unless you do it by jackhammering, which the whole building would have heard it regardless. Also, the ceiling tiles are only supported by wires that are propped into the concerete ceiling, and the weight of the ceiling tiles wouldn't even support a human body, since it would come crashing down and such.

Anyways, she wasn't home during pest control (This is normal, since she's never home anyways during the work week, because she hates us for apparently no reason) so my boss opened the door and let the bug guy spray in her apartment. What happened was that she got home and saw the note on her door knob (this is procedure to let the tenants know that we were in there to do either repairs or inspections, etc) and tore it up, and threw it over the balcony into the atrium area.

Then she went over to the other side of the building to talk to the resident manager who is on duty, and a different tenant overheard the conversation on the floor below. Basically she said to the resident manager "If somebody ever comes into my apartment again, I will get a gun and shoot their asses", and left. Both of those tenants who heard the comment reported to the Director and signed a statement about what happened.

She's now under a 30 day eviction notice.

I spent quite a few year painting and cleaning carpets in numerous apartment complexes, and we ran into all kinds too. My favorites were the people who'd bitch you out when you were cleaning up flood damage in their apartments as if you were the one who caused it.

Spray pesticide on her toothbrush.

I don't doubt this story but I put Directv in an apartment and ran the wires through the attic. It was open above all the units. The customer told me a druggie was getting into all the other apartments that way. He didn't walk on the ceiling tiles though. He didn't have to. Each apt. had an attic access in a closet.

I would imagine the rental contract gives the landlord the right to inspect the apartments and treat them there cockroachs. Therefore ,threatening to blow their shit away for said inspection that is on the same day of every week should be illegal. You should ask a lawyer though.
