Brilliant Business Decision

I moved into this apartment that seemed kinda nice. I delivered there once for Uber Eats, and overall everything made it seem competitive for the area. Not exactly a fancy area or anything, but I figured it'd be mostly habitable. I ended up having to break my lease cause I lost my job, but honestly I should have within that first month when they ignored my initial inspection.

The funny part about making mistakes through life, like keeping a lease until you lose your job is the ability to share things on the internet. if there's one thing I've learned through my life: I'm stupid and I'm always wrong. In this case, I was joking with my mom and complaining the same time about the fact these cheap bastards couldn't get a plastic bolt for $5 that'd keep the toilet seat in place.

Guess what short video is now #1 on their profile page? It's not all the carefully curated pictures they've got of a unit looking incredibly clean. It's me wiggling the broken toilet seat the moment I moved into the place.

Don't worry, I added another 12-13 images of damage that was present when I moved in. According to Google Gemini at least one was mold. The spots were small, but it's still present. They still ignored that shit too. I included texts without their personal information or numbers so people can see the office ignoring this shit too.

Constantly tried to blame me for "overflowing" the bathroom, but I got images of the toilet leak I mentioned to the office. Both the leak and the aftermath.

NGL. Way more satisfying than suing now that the broken toilet seat video is the first thing you see on their profile. They can keep that $145 they took from my safety deposit for utilities they refused to prove I owe. Small Claims is a bitch in Michigan as a plaintiff, but Google Reviews are low effort and can be costly for business owners.

I also let the state AG know about some of my stuff. Look forward to someone taking them to the cleaner's because I got clinical PTSD and I'd never get far in an environment like a court anyway. I'd lose my shit preparing my case or during the case. I'm so fucked up from my dad's side of the family I try to prove shit well beyond any sort of doubt, not just reasonable doubt. Obviously not possible.

Well, anyway, hope that broken toilet seat video being the first thing people will see now was worth $145.
