I once had a lady's ceiling collapse. I then come to learn she's been putting a bucket out to catch water for months, never told anyone about it. What should have been a quick 15 minute fix ended up being a total nightmare.

Had one dude who was a heroin addict. Kept flushing needles. The plumbing had to be taken apart multiple times to get his needles out.

Had a lady who kept adopting cats, wouldn't get them fixed. She would then let them out into the hall to spray the walls with what was basically straight ammonia, except grosser.

I could go on all day, trash fires, fucking litter, a phycological inability to break down cardboard. I think my blood pressure just spiked writing this.

You couldn't pay me to be a landlord. People are awful.

If it's any consolation, I'm in an 8-unit owner-occupied condo rn and my kitchen ceiling collapsed last week because the HOA refused to fix a roof leak for almost two years. So now what should have been a couple hundred dollar roof patch is thousands of dollars coming out of my HOA payments.
