It's almost June.  I just got a late notice in the mail claiming I never paid my April rent and owe almost $100 in late fees.  I checked my bank account and see where they cashed my check.

The accounting at this appartment complex sucks, apparently.  I'm reminded of the last time this happened, and the time they lost a check for two months and never said anything about it until I asked them why they never cashed it.

Time to make a phone call...

Xant, we need to fix your grammar after the JB incident. What kind of eldritch abomination can't use correct human grammar to terrify its victims?

'What happened?' is what you should have said.

My guess is either they stood up to a superior and they didn't like that, or they stood up to an employee that the company sees as far more valuable than them, and the other employee complained.  Sucks but probably not much can be done.

More annoyance than rage, but I've been digging up a leach field.  I've progressed to a hole 3 feet deep now.  Unfortunately about 2 feet down the hole seems to be filled with murky standing water.  Pretty much level with the top of the leach field.

Good news is I think I found out why the shower and washing machine were backing up. It's not draining from the rocks to the soil properly.  Probably the weed barrier is blocked up.

Bad news is, I still need to dig down another 3 feet to get to it.

He got fired.

Of course he won. He no longer has to work for an asshole employer.



EDIT: Raging becausing I'm trying to learn how to hand-thread a needle. The last person to use my sewing kit(WTF I have sewing kit?) left the needles all over the place in the thing, and the needle with an eye that looked easy enough to thread was bent, and it broke while trying to straighten it(note to self, pliers and sewing needles are not a good combination). Finally got it(thank you WikiHow). Now to learn how to sew a very large and complex tear in my pants(it's not the seam either!). ...Can't seem to find a WikiHow page for a non-seam tear...

The only way to sew a non-seam tear in clothing to to apply a large patch over the entire area. Anything else will just lead it to unravel faster and faster until there is an even more gaping and ragged hole.
