You could be right parus. But, and I don't say this at all touting my own self, but I'm one of their best clients ... never late with rent, don't call for every little thing if I can do it myself, and always make a point of being nice and helpful to the staff because I sure wouldn't want their jobs. They deal with all kinds of people .... like the woman below me who thinks people are "coming through the walls." But, I'm not going to ...... if this led to a permanent disability, then I definitely would, but this will eventually heal. My doctor told me that soft tissue injuries heal more slowly than broken bones.

Parus .... I don't see your comments as negative .... they're how you see things and feel .... that's truthful.

WHAT IN THE WORLD IS GOING ON? I think I'm hexed (a good ole' PA Dutch word) ..... I called my dentist's office and left messages 2x last Friday and sent 2 e-mails, all on the same thing. They aren't in on Fridays anymore. I had sent $300 to his office to work toward paying off my teeth, and then realized that with getting a new Great Call phone order, I "oops-ed" my budget and was over by a good bit in the bank (I only use a debit card). Well, in all 4 of these messages I told the receptionist to please shred the check and I would send them one for $100. Well, one thing I learned, loud and clear, from the dentist I worked with, was that the first thing you do in any medical office when you arrive is to check the phone and e-mail messages in case there is an emergency call or message. Well, obviously she didn't do that because I called at 11 AM to be sure she'd shredded it, and her reply, "oh my, I just took all the checks to the bank." I asked her if she didn't get my messages (as nicely as I could even though steam was coming out of my ears), and she said, "oh, I rarely check them before noon." OMG! I'd have been fired if I'd have done that. But, I am sure no one, but me, will EVER know because the dentist is her husband.
So, now I'm left with no money - my daughter was sweet enough to pick up my meds. for me this morning (one was Effexor and I was really beginning to feel the effects of not taking any since last Sunday). So, now I wait til the beginning of July til I can do any grocery shopping, get gas, etc.
Interesting ...... sort of a "treat" a week!

@amberpep Hey, thanks for the report on your decision. Yes, they do deal with all types of people. I also am nice to staff and only report things that are out of my league. They have way too many people reporting piddly things when there are much bigger things to deal with. Thankful your fall was not anything permanent. As we age we do take longer to heal-like you need to be reminded of thus. I am also one of their best renters here and have been here for nearly 8 years. Things can get a tad crazy at times. I have a new neighbor above me and she is so quiet I hardly know she is up there. No more thunderous teenage boy. We can't pick our neighbors.
I am thankful to other members who are tolerant of my, at times, negative view. We are here to encourage one another when another is struggling and not to make them feel they are wrong for how they are feeling. Take care.
