Meanness everywhere

posted Tuesday, 7 June 2005

As if it wasn't enough to have to deal with stupid, rude, mean people at the information desk, my apartment building is full of 'em, too. This one didn't happen to me, but I've had my run-ins with horrid people in what's supposed to be my home. More about them another time. But last week a notice from the strata council entitled "Vigilante Action" appeared in the elevator.

Apparently a car in the residents' parking had been leaking oil, which is of course a huge no-no. The owner got it fixed, but there was still a bit of a drip. So rather than telling the council or leaving the person a note on the windshield, some asshat scratched the word "oil" with an arrow pointing downwards, into the paint of the hood! Can you believe that? There are cameras in the visitor's parking area, but I guess not in the residents' garage, so the culprit got away with it. So much for neighbourliness.
