A little while ago I was rudely awakened from a deep sleep.
As some of you may know, I work nights. Not 3-11 nights but 9PM-5AM nights.
Anyway, I was out cold nestled cozily in my bed with a fan blowing in my face when I was awoken to what sounded like someone banging nails into the side of my building. I ignored it for a minute or two but the sound persisted. I got out of bed to look out the window and see that the fuck was going when I realized that the banging wasn't outside but on my apartment door. Dude's banging on the door like he's the fucking police.
I throw some sweats on go to the door and grunt, "Who is it?"
"Maintenance."
I opened the door, "Can I help you?"
"Ummm ... yeah, maintenance I'm here to do an inspection," the jackass said.
I know I didn't receive any notification of this inspection. I informed the guy of this and told him to have a nice day and that he better be legit because the next thing I'm doing after closing this door is calling the cops and telling them there is a lunatic banging on people's doors in my building. Then I slammed the door in his face.
I didn't really call the cops. I just called the apartment office to verify if they were doing inspections, which they did and I gave them a piece of my mind about proper notification and polite ways to knock on doors. I then told him they aren't getting in here to do their inspection for at least 24 hours.
But now I'm just wide awake and pissed. I better get back to bed before 4 this afternoon otherwise it's going to be a LONG night tonight.
Anything like this ever happen to you?

I spent 2 hours on a Sunday afternoon (and missed a great football game) hosing down and scooping up the crap. The neighbors are jerks . . . and snooty to boot.
Sorry!
