Dang… too much good stuff to reply to. I can generalize and say how awesome you guys are.
Showing support to the youngsters, in the proper NO BULLSHIT way is important. Having someone there to do it, y’all are the real heroes.
Sometime ya gotta cut the shit and say what’s what. I don’t have kids, but I give “the talk” to my older nephews all the time. I would hate for them to get stuck working dead end jobs.

@thainer I rent so what im doing is already above and beyond but I know there is literally trees growing in the gutters because they’ve never really been cleaned out. For the longest time it would leak heavily into the basement and when I started investigating the sump pump drain line was busted and wasn’t draining to the gutter drain line but just pumping it back outside the house to leak thru by the window closest to the sump pump again causing continual degradation of the walls. I reported it to the landlord and he’s like thanks good catch don’t know how that happened. Kinda like what he would say the same thing if I reminded him the outside ac unit has been fixed with zipties oh I forgot but then nothing will get done. It’s a shame I do more for this place than him

This seems to be the norm anymore sadly. My dad rents a gorgeous home in Crystal Beach. Bren there two years, landlord hasn’t been there once but lives blocks away. I had to repair eavestroughs, install a new door, rip off and repanel his back porch cuz it was so moist the wood was warping…. And he’s too nice to stop paying for stuff on his dime. I see this from many friends as well. It seems they do the absolute least humanly possible and expect rent on time and in full

My landlord still hasn’t installed that hard wired smoke detector with strobe, lol. I’ve got the battery powered one over my bed at least, but goddamn.
I just hope this keeps him away, cause if he comes back I’ll ask him about it

Yup another one, see. I actually have the perfect smoke/carbon monoxide detector . Check out NEST detectors? I have my house on a whole Nest camera system (5 cameras) and a doorbell, plus 3 of those. They light up and flash different colours depending.

Yep it’s wild because he owns a lot of rental properties in this town like at least 1/3rd of them because he’s got money. I guess that’s how the rich stay rich
