Today was not my best day. In fact, you might say it sucked. The day job was a nightmare. Well, no, not that bad. More like a bad dream. Then the rental office informed me they would be bringing not one, not two, but THREE different prospective renters in during the day. After my niece’s visit this weekend, the place really is a mess. And because I work with private health information, my work computer must be shut down if anyone is there. That means I don’t get paid for these three visits.
I might have cried when I hung up the phone. A little bit. But I didn’t punch my fist through the wall, which was a very valid option 2.
What do you do when you are soooo stressed you can’t even function? That’s right, Keep Calm and Drink Tea. Maybe scream every bad word you know in the silence of your mind. (8 years of military service; I know a LOT of bad words.) I decided to not mess around with good teas and went for a great one. Minted Minkey. It’s good for what ails ya.

Aww I’m so sorry about everything happening right now. That’s good that the office informed you at least. Mine has been bringing people in to view my place anytime they freaking want without warning, so I feel like I’m being held hostage. But regardless, that is horrible how it is affecting your job in that way.
Ack!! I thought they had to notify you in advance. I guess I should count my blessings!
When I signed a form putting in my notice, included it was a disclaimer agreeing to allow them to show my place anytime befween 10am and 7pm. The catch is you can’t move out unless you sign the form. Like what? Talk about a crafty way of circumventing the law.
I’m sorry you had such a stressful day Maddy!
Fjellrev, I’m pretty sure most places (provinces, states) they are required to give you 24 hours written notice before entering or showing your apartment.
I had a terribly traumatic experience where my landlord decided to sell the building, lied to us about it and then one day I woke up with a real estate agent and random people in my bedroom. I have rarely been so angry in my life and I still get jumpy when I hear people outside my door.
Seriously, you do not have to put up with that shite. Call residential tenancies if you need help.
OMG D: All of your stories are awful. :( Maddy and Fjellrev, I hope things go better for both of you.
It’s going to get better. I don’t do stress well, and I tend to bleed all over when I get frazzled. 8 more days! Just 8 more days and the move will be done. No more people walking through my space!
