Landlord tales - the broken window
I have one of the greediest landlords on this planet. I recently asked him to fix a window in the bedroom that no longer opens. His response? "The guy who does my windows is dealing with very bad personal problems right now. I have no idea when he will be able to start fixing things again, but I have you on the list". I just had to laugh. This excuse has been added to the list of my favorites.

There is an update to this story; an unexpected twist, really. Today, exactly one week after my conversation with the landlord, two window guys came in and fixed it. I suppose my emphasis on this issue being a "major safety concern" somehow got through to him.
