WTF....Too Much At One Time

You know that saying that "You have to take the bad wth the good?" Well I am deep to my knees in bad SH_T! I have one of the laziest and greediest landlords in Brooklyn, We have been here for almost three years and really would like/need to move. Everything here was newly renovated when we moved in...at first glance it was nice. Two months in things started falling apart, paint chipping and plumbing problems. And oh let me not forget to mention that he doesn't fix anything but leaks and that's only because he lives in the basement. The hood over the stove has fallen down, which he was told back in August when it happened, and yes it's still proped up on the back of the stove. The knob on the kitchen sink broke in two. Paint has chipped around the windows and faux fireplace. NOW you would think that that would be enough, right? WRONG this idiot won't let Con-Ed (electric company) in to read the meters for like eight months. So you know what this means right? All the bills I have been paying were estimates and now that he finally allowed them in to get a reading I am stuck with $968.00 bill that I have to pay. I am going to be paying this off until March 2009 with a payment plan. Did I forget to tell you that he doesn't work and is here when Con-Ed comes and just ignores them. There should be a law against landlords who don't give access to meters for monthly readings or at least be held accountable.

Needing to Move--So we start looking for a larger apartment and had a financial plan to pay for the move....that's right you guessed it TAX RETURN! Remember I said knee deep in SH_T well our payroll person at my job(who is no longer with the company) never made the adjustments to my withholdings so here I am owing the government. (Stuck in crappy apartment)

Speaking of jobs... I work at a very well known organization that holds classes, seminars, expos, movie screenings with top name performers in the music & movie industry along with big players in the business world. Well, the owner of this (unspoken) company had a very good business going until greed got the best of him and choosing not to treat his customers with respect, along with really bad business decisions. We as a company have gone from employing close to 150 people from coast to coast to just 15 employees. The owner is trying to come with the next best craze to which those of us who are left don't know if we'll have jobs in a month, if it doesn't work.

Thanks for allowing me to vent and I hope I haven't brought any of you down...As I started out saying "You have to take the bad with the good" I'M READY FOR GOOD NOW!


Oh Yeah! Did you see the GIANTS? What a game! GO BIG BLUE!
