Intolerable Neighbor Rant

[Evil Robot]

I'm not joking about making the photoshopped abuse picture. A valid option? I'll let you sleep on it. Just keep in mind that your neighbors could be commiting crimes on the other side of your living room wall. There could be, and probably is, a meth lab less than ten feet from your precious daughter.

I understand my methods might seem rash, but what is important to you, your daughters innocence, or the daughter of an innocent man who happens to be a dick head?

I say you should help me,... help you.

Sincerely,
Evil Robot


PS, PM me, we have slander to attend to.

You should do as the Colonel suggests to start with. If your landlord fails to comply and lay down the law, you have to go to the courts next and set up an escrow with them and pay your rent there. The courts will then send a letter to your landlord telling them your rent is being held in escrow until he lives up to the rules of the lease. If you have a lawyer they should set it up in short order for you. I know they can be expensive, does your job offer prepaid legal? If it does, you might want to get into that, they are made for just this sort of thing.

As for your mail, if your local postmaster does nothing, I recommend you go over his head to his boss. If he does nothing, go over his head, and so on, and so on, until you get results. Might help if you anonymously inform the news that there is mail theft and the postmaster is doing nothing about it. If there's one thing the media loves, it's bad publicity about something. And if there's one thing the USPS hates, it's bad publicity about themselves.

We evicted a tenant after the neighbors called me (on vacation, that was fun) and told me she and her boyfriend broke a window during a fight at 2AM, with the cops showing up and hauling him off to the slam for abuse. Up to this point we knew none of this. We acted within the month, inspecting the damage (which she lied about) and looking over the other, ancillary damage to the property. We took a financial hit on this (evicting someone costs money, and you can't deduct it on your taxes), but we won the respect of the neighborhood.

I hope your landlord will view it the same way.
