apartment manager horror stories

One horror story I've heard is about an apartment manager who would constantly enter tenants' units without proper notice. He claimed it was for 'inspections' but would move things around and even take small items. Tenants felt violated but were afraid to complain as they didn't want to get evicted.

I heard of an apartment manager who completely ignored safety regulations. The fire alarms in the building were broken for months, and the emergency exits were often blocked. When a tenant reported it, the manager threatened to evict them for causing trouble. It was a very dangerous situation for all the residents in that apartment building.

There was a manager in a company I know who took credit for all the good ideas of his team. Whenever the team presented a great solution to a problem, he would present it to upper management as his own. This led to a lot of resentment among the team members and eventually high turnover. They felt unappreciated and used. It was a real horror story in terms of management ethics.

Well, start by asking for references from the landlord. If they are hesitant to provide them, that's a bad sign. Then, during the viewing, test all the facilities like the lights, faucets, and the stove. You don't want to move in and find out things don't work. Also, make sure you understand the rent payment process clearly. Is there a grace period? How do they accept payments? And don't forget to check the neighborhood safety. You can look at local crime rates. If you follow these steps, you'll be less likely to encounter a rental horror story.

One apartment horror story is about a couple who moved into a new place. At night, they would hear strange scratching noises coming from the walls. They thought it might be mice at first, but when they called an exterminator, nothing was found. The noises continued and grew louder, until one day they found a hidden door in the closet that led to a small, dark space. It was really creepy.

One horror story is about a strange noise. A student in college apartment would hear scratching noises at night coming from the wall. It was so creepy that he couldn't sleep well. He thought it might be rats at first, but when he checked, there was no sign of any rodents. Eventually, he found out that the wind was blowing a loose piece of metal outside the building against the wall, which created the spooky sound.

In my NYC apartment, the neighbors were the horror. They would have loud parties every night. The music was blaring until the early hours of the morning. I complained to the building management several times, but it took them forever to do anything about it. I lost so much sleep during that time.

One horror story is when a district manager forced unrealistic sales targets on the stores in the district. Employees were overworked and stressed trying to meet these impossible goals. Some stores had to cut staff hours just to try and balance the books, which led to poor customer service and a high turnover rate among employees.

One horror story could be when a stage manager lost all the cue sheets right before a big performance. It was a complete chaos as the actors and technicians were relying on those cues for lighting, sound, and scene changes. Another could be a stage manager who accidentally booked two different shows on the same stage at the same time, leading to major disputes between the production teams.

I heard of a hiring manager who asked inappropriate and discriminatory questions during the interview. For example, asking about a candidate's family planning when it had no relation to the job. This made the candidate uncomfortable and violated equal opportunity employment laws. It shows a lack of proper training and professionalism on the part of the hiring manager.
